Article 1 - BILL OF RIGHTS
Section 23 - RIGHT TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS
Every citizen shall have the right to keep and bear arms in the lawful defense of himself or the State; but the Legislature shall have power, by law, to regulate the wearing of arms, with a view to prevent crime.
I would imagine that it would be impossible for the Texas state government to ever pass legislation that removes the right for a citizen to keep and bear arms but what would happen if there is Federal legislation that somehow does this. What options does the state of Texas have?
