Does Open Carry Include Rifles?

[Whistler]

Rights aren't really made for people cowering to practice their right in secret but for the brazen and obnoxious otherwise persecuted.
I won't sit down because you're afraid you won't get candy. Stamp out fear mongering.

In Texas if it is not prohibited by law it is permitted.

That was my point. You can be drunk as a skunk and carry a long gun and it would be legal, though perhaps not advisable.

Still can get a PI... but I get your point

What about sword, say my USMC NCO Saber?

Law was just changed recently.
It used to be a no-no, but they now retracted that, and it's OK now.
I myself have a couple of katanas, as so does my son, plus some middle age swords.

When there is trouble in the neighborhood, neither of us grab edged weapons.
It would be like bringing a knife to a gun fight...

It is a "location restricted knife"

No one would dare tell him that he can’t carry a sword…

 

[Gordo]

I don't larp with my katana,
as they say "before you know your katana, your katana will get to know you!"

If I can ever talk my son into getting a couple of kendos to practice with, I could possibly use a katana for what it was designed for.
Now I just use it to trim low hanging branches, in sight of my neighbors.
Keeps most of them from coming over to chit-chat all the time...

In what age do you believe katanas came about?

 

[Gordo]

When people mention the middle ages, they typically are referring to Europe, picker of nits.

I'm not prejudice, I'll pick on anyone.

I will just have to try to be more descriptive in my posts from now on.
Not everyone's mind can make out my between the lines style of writing,
including myself.

 

[tedwitt]

And why is that? I mean, I can understand consumption being illegal while carrying. But purchasing too?

Did I miss that somewhere?

You get caught drinking or smoking weed and have your pistol on you and you may go to jail.
I don't think you can poses booze and be in posession of a weapon of any kind,

I think the joke was more along the lines of it being about Bud Light being the beer of queer folk - they were sponsoring / using Dylan Mulvaney as a spokesperson, Mr. "XX day of being a girl"

That, and Bud Lite also being the butt of many jokes as being piss water.

Not a beer drinker, so I don't have a dog in the fight beyond the fact that AB picked the wrong horse by backing the guy pretending to be trans as a way to get famous and get money.

He looks alot like some of those fellas coming across the border to me.
Him having the AR appears lega/legit but my spidey senses would have been on alert till I knew more
Go ahead and call me racist or whatever I don't care.

Don't "think," do actual research and provide a legal reference when making such a statement!

And, for your information, you are incorrect!

Texas Penal Code § 46.035(d) is the state law establishing that a license holder commits a crime when, while intoxicated, they carry a handgun under the authority of Subchapter H of Chapter 411 of the Texas Government Code, regardless of whether their handgun is concealed or carried in a shoulder or belt holster. An offense is a Class A misdemeanor.

Please read TEXAS PENAL CODE before just making things up.

You can drink and carry a weapon in public. Dont get drunk and don't get arrested, but nothing illegal about carrying and drinking.

There is an old saying..you may be the rap but you won't beat the ride..
It wasn't just too long ago that Temple PD stopped an Afghanistan war veteran for "rude display" of an AR 15..and he ended up going to jail and put on trial.

All the other bullshit charges were tacked on To make it look like they had a case..but he got stopped for simply having an AR 15 slung over his shoulder on a rural country road...Nothing else.

What was the eventual outcome of the trial?
