Those kind of A-Holes are the ones getting shot dead. Only a moron would attack another person in Texas with a tough guy routine of fists or whatever. People packing don't start shooting anyone, and do not attack anyone - unless some dim bulb moron is attacking them. Then the attacker gets shot - hopefully dead.
Read WVOTOGO'S following post where he/she is not afraid of backing down in traffic because they ARE CARRYING, and if anyone is stupid/dumb enough to begin an attack on him/her - that person in a rage is going to get shot.

The only skepticism I carry, is that someone who states what WvoToGo stated, "I simply don't let them in," is potentially more of a bully in traffic, and never back down in traffic, simply because they are packing. That to me is an immature attitude/approach to operating a motor vehicle, but so be it. That's a problem - but not against the law.
Never, ever attack/threaten another Texan, and you will live to see another day - is the best advice to follow.

Well gee whiz Joe, it sure sounds like I know a bit more about it than you do, addresses notwithstanding. Assuming that everyone who carries a weapon is a mentally stable, non aggressive, model of humanity....that is delusional thinking, and will get you into trouble some day. I spent enough years living in the wild west, (mostly deep in the mountains, where the law is usually over an hour away) to know that there are plenty of losers carrying firearms, aggressive losers. Some legally carrying, some not.
I still maintain that anyone who breaks out a weapon because of somebody else's driving is a dangerous nutjob. If you resemble that description, then I feel sorry for you.
Calling somebody a bully because they won't let douche bags cut in traffic.... Guess I don't follow that reasoning either, and must now consider myself a bully, because I don't let those people merge in front of me either(unless it is a safety hazard to other vehicles) If you want to run past a line of vehicles waiting to merge/exit/whatever, then you should be prepared to wait extra long. At this point, I think I know who's behind the wheel of that camper trying to squeeze in at the head of the line.....
"never ever attack/threaten another Texan..." What are you saying?? That I
have attacked/threatened Texans in the past, and should not do it again?? or are you implying that I
am a Texan??
