Tension mounts as gun rights proponents and gun control advocates square off in a series of proposed legislation during the 87th Texas Legislative Session. Since the start of the session, dozens of bills have popped up that restrict everything from licensed gun owners carrying on campuses to the criminalization of so-called “assault rifles.” Burnet County gun advocate Mark McDonald expressed concern about the term created by gun control advocates and believes momentum grows to try to ban firearms and ammunition based on misinformation.

On his way to the Texas State Capitol on March 25, gun rights advocate John Bolgiano took some stock in his role to encourage Llano County Commissioners to pass a Second Amendment Sanctuary status resolution.
