"Under Texas law, you can openly carry rifles and shotguns, but not handguns. You have to do so in a manner that does not cause alarm. That's why police say Poe was charged with a crime, because people at the mall told authorities they were fearful."


Yeah, that's not what the law says.


And this is BS too.

"Beaumont police were on hand to make sure everything went smoothly. Officers say the difference between Saturday's demonstration and the incident with Poe at Parkdale Mall is that marchers made it clear ahead of time that their intent was peaceful in nature."

It's ridiculous to think it's only ok to carry a rifle if you call everyone and tell them what a peaceful person you are first.

Other than that, the article wasn't too bad.
