    According to the authors (very decent) rating system, our Cost of Living and our lack of Constitutional Carry are the two factors allowing 11 states to rank as more "gun friendly."

    2021 gives us a chance to address our Constitutional Carry miss again. But, I am wondering if it was an Amoeba's fault.

    With our population explosion, I don't anticipate improvements to our Cost of Living.

    I think this guy did a good comparison.

    Spoiler Alert:





    Kentucky grabs top gun friendly spot.

    LOL...i lived in cincinnati for 4 years...as close as you can get to kentucky without actually living there...it is a craphole :laughing:

    texas is the best place to live...could not wait to move back here :D
    I lived in Cincinnati for 5 years but it was 1972-77. Went through the race riots. I thought it was generally a good place at least then anyhow. Nothing beats Texas and I have been almost everywhere in the USA.

    In a couple of years we were going to start transitioning to Wyoming.
    Sooner is starting to look a lot better.

    Frankly, I don't care what some nitwit ranks Texas at. He can live in those other states. I'll just stay right here in the greatest state, Texas!

    While I love Texas we are lagging behind in gun rights.

    I hear the same thing from many people. But, I see it this way.

    Be thankful for what you have, and remember others have it much worse.

    Yes, our gun laws and rights in Texas could be better, but they could be much worse.

    Texas has skyrocketing property values because of Kalifs and Northern yankees moving in. We have no income tax but it is made up for by property tax. Just take a look at Austin........handouts for the homeless making that city like Porthole and whatever the other city up there in Oregone is called.

    If it upsets you so much, please feel free to find another state that is better in your opinion.

    I'll stay right here in the Great State of Texas.

    Can’t argue that but even some Commie north east states have more liberal laws related to carry than we do.

    There’s no logical reason for that.

    Doesn't make much sense to me either, but since I don't live in other states, and don't travel to them anymore, I'm just going to concern myself with my own problems right here at home!

    I don't think MLK and Rosa Parks would be satisfied with that answer....and neither should Texans.

    Until the only gun law is the Second Amendment, Texas gun owners need to keep fighting.
