I'm not from Texas but the governor is in the news a lot,I was under the impression he was a true blue conservative.This morning the morning news is playing up the fact he has backed out of his speaking engagement at the NRA's convention.Is he a real conservative or another RINO?

I saw Lee Greenwood on Fox and Friends,explaining he backed out because it could be seen as an endorsement of the weapon that killed kids.I guess that's one way to look at it,though the convention is about the NRA,not the AR15.Another way to look at it is that's his excuse so he can duck the woke crowd and the condemnation the NRA is receiving as a gun rights organization.I found his excuse lame

Yea, given what just happened I'll give him a pass this time. I'm not so inclined to do that. Either you stand up for what you believe in or you don't.

Agree 100% I would agree if he was from a different state, but he's dealing with the families of those kids right now. Tuff call either way.

Nothing he could say would have worked in his favor.
Regarding the NRA, when has a member ever committed a mass shooting? Maybe NRA membership and training courses should be required for gun purchases. A portion of dues could be directed for mental health and law enforcement. Finally something I can agree with you on, Charles! Your getting there!

I almost said something to compliment Charles but I held back to see if it was a typo or something.

The 'anti gun groups' are all calling for protesters at the NRA convention in Texas. Might be a good place to stay away from, or a target rich environment. depending on how you roll.
