Yammer Dan Posted December 11, 2009 Share #3 Posted December 11, 2009 Thats the Way it Should Be!!! Sombody needs to tell her about speedloaders!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sling Posted December 11, 2009 Share #4 Posted December 11, 2009 I tried to google the Houston Herald to see the article. There is no Houston Herald in Texas. When you google it it brings up a bunch of sites and they all say it is false. It's too bad though cause it would save the tax payers a lot of money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dynodon Posted December 11, 2009 Share #5 Posted December 11, 2009 Well, Snopes can't find it. Might be true or just new enough that it hasn't been investigated yet. Wait, theres more...I investigated a little more and several lists/blogs have this and call it a "joke" and nothing more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Venturous Randy Posted December 11, 2009 Share #8 Posted December 11, 2009 It was true enough in my mind to make me feel better about the story and that is what matters to me. I am also one of those people that checks Snopes for these things, but ocassionally, I DON"T want to know if it is not true, it is still a good story.

Condor Posted December 11, 2009 Share #9 Posted December 11, 2009 This thing has been floating around on the net for years now. Every once in a while someone, with a lack of creativity, will put another spin on it and start it again. It's getting old..... Yawn.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jburrell Posted December 11, 2009 Share #13 Posted December 11, 2009 Just think though in Texas no we are allowed to carry guns in our Cars and trucks--concealed--open it dont matter. Under the "Castle law" our car is just like our "Castle" and we are allowed to protect it. This is without a permit. We can also get a permit to carry a concealed weapon (pistol) just by applying and taking a 1 day class. Rules are lax so much so that a blind man got a license. Be careful who you Rob/Attack/piss off in TEXAS as our shoot law no longer states that we must be "in fear of losing our life: before we can shoot. If used to be that you had to first try to run from the situation or be afraid you were going to die. If you shot someone that had broke into your house you had to make sure they stayed in your house. Couldn't let them get out and shoot them.Now all we need is to be afraid that we are in danger. A much broader range to be sure. REMEMBER NOW '" DON'T MESS WITH TEXAS" really means something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigfoot Posted December 11, 2009 Share #14 Posted December 11, 2009 The Following Monday Morning, The Woman Was Called In Front OfTheArraignment Judge, Sworn In, And AskedTo Explain Her Actions. When I got to this part I knew it was a fake. No one can be called in like this after a possible crime to explain themselves to a judge. Talk about legal issues.
