Images: These Heavily Armed Women At Open Carry Rally Feel Gun Laws Are Too Strict In Texas
Women with Open Carry Texas held a rally on Saturday called “Goddesses with Guns” in which mostly men showed up. The group made an appearance in San Antonio to prove that all Moms do not support gun control. You see, they feel that gun laws are too lax in ‘shoot ’em up’ Texas.
In their honor, here are a few pictures of women at the rally who feel that their state’s gun laws are too strict.
[su_center_ad]I remember Easy Bake Ovens and Play-Doh, but now it’s guns for their children, because freedom.
The point of Open Carry marches is to highlight that in Texas, there are certain illegalities to carrying a handgun outside of a person’s residence. A person may legally carry, either open or concealed, in a non-threatening or alarming manner, a shotgun or rifle, so they do even though it alarms others.
One must always have a rifle when ready to give birth just in case the baby kicks.
Very few people showed up for the rally. The “Goddesses” were mostly men. If your rifle toting gang frightens passersby, then your state’s gun laws are not strict.
Big thanks to my source for the images. [su_csky_ad]

Never met a woman that needed a gun to hold my heart.
Ladies, you’re doing something wrong.
Bob Smiton September 21st, 2014 at 12:36 pm
They are clearly not looking to hold your anything.

Texas, again??
There has to be something in the water or the air down there…

“Activists bringing rifles into Texas chain stores in recent weeks have put the state at the center of a national fight over “open-carry” laws, reinforcing many Americans’ perception of the Lone Star State as a haven for gun rights.
In reality, Texas has one of the nation’s more restrictive laws on the carrying of handguns—a policy that firearms-rights groups and state legislators are fighting to change. Those efforts, however, have been unsuccessful: Legislation in recent years proposing to allow people to carry handguns visibly has stalled.
Now, some Texas gun-rights supporters are concerned that negative publicity over the recent protests will make their struggle even tougher.
Proponents of open carry say they have resorted to toting long arms such as rifles into chains like Target and Chipotle to make a point—because it is all they are legally permitted to do.
“We’d much rather carry a handgun,” said Terry Holcomb Sr., executive director of Texas Carry, one of the open-carry advocacy groups active across the state. “A long gun is not conducive to everyday personal defense, going to work, going out, going shopping.”

Thanks Miz Julia~!
Always a pleasure to read your comments…
And when I make disparaging comments about ‘Texas’..
I do so in jest..:)
Here in Missouri, there are already “open carry” laws..
Anyone can openly carry a weapon..
But to have a weapon (concealed) requires a permit..
It’s crazy town..
I own guns, but I dont brandish them in public..
They collect dust in the closet.
What these people who feel they must display themselves with weapons in public..
I suspect they have some mental health issues..
Miz Julia September 21st, 2014 at 2:17 pm
Hey Stoney, thanks. ;-)) It’s easy to pile on Texas for any number of reasons, like Louis Gohmert and Ted (sees red) Cruz, ha!
And it’s pretty absurd that you can use a Texas concealed handgun license issued by DPS for ID to vote, but you can’t use a student ID with a picture. That’s why I’m going to TWU to register voters a week from Tuesday!

There’s no end to the bad taste those clowns exhibit.
M D Reese September 21st, 2014 at 12:35 pm
These deluded women ought to go over to the Middle East. They would scare the crap out of ISIS.
mea_mark September 21st, 2014 at 12:41 pm
That’s what I was thinking.
Miz Julia September 21st, 2014 at 2:31 pm
The open display of boobery might scare ISIS. 😉 And they would confiscate the guns, just as they’ve done with so many of the US supplied weapons to Iraqi troops and “moderate” rebels of one sort or another. Oy.
M D Reese September 21st, 2014 at 7:43 pm
“The enemy of my enemy is my friend”–at least until the enemy is defeated and then the enemy of my former enemy is now my current enemy…Oh I give up. Maybe Weird Al Yankovic can sort it out for us…
M D Reese September 21st, 2014 at 7:41 pm
I definitely want video.
edmeyer_able September 21st, 2014 at 12:37 pm
If a person wants to have a weapon around their child is one thing, why they wish to expose their child to the danger of so many others w/guns is hard for me to understand.
Tom Ward September 21st, 2014 at 1:08 pm
What danger? Did anyone get hurt at this rally? (I’m assuming not because that would have been the top article on Alan.com).
I see Alan posting articles of gun accidents happening every other day or so, but that is out of the entire country, which means the chances of actual danger are pretty low. For example, if there’s only a 0.0000001% chance of you being accidentally shot at a gun rally… big deal. :-/

I see what you did there.
If I might add.
Dwendt44 September 21st, 2014 at 1:24 pm
I’m very sure that Alan could post thousands more cases of gun violence should he choose to do so. That’s because 30,000 are dead because of guns each year.
Larry Schmitt September 21st, 2014 at 1:42 pm
Since “guns save lives,” imagine how many more than the 30,000 would have died without the guns. Isn’t logic fun?
Dwendt44 September 21st, 2014 at 2:02 pm
the circular logic used by these low effort thinkers is like a dog chasing it’s tail.
Debbie Williams September 21st, 2014 at 1:51 pm
Big deal if someone gets shot? You’re one of the mentally ill who should never be allowed to have guns!
arc99 September 21st, 2014 at 2:04 pm
The danger comes from encouraging proliferation of firearms with the underlying dishonesty that more guns make us safer. The fact is that more guns make us more vulnerable to the carelessness or negligence of “good guys with guns”.
More cars on the freeway do not make driving safer. It makes us more likely to be killed or injured by a negligent driver. The same applies to guns.
More guns in society mean more opportunities to be injured or killed by negligence. That is my beef with the whole pro gun movement. Increasing the opportunities for any of us to be accidentally killed or injured does not make us safer
Dwendt44 September 21st, 2014 at 2:07 pm
Even back in the ‘Wild West’ days, the sheriff often would ban sidearms in town. A lot safer with saloons and uneducated cowboys all around.
StoneyCurtisll September 21st, 2014 at 5:05 pm
Sort of like the same percentage of voter ID fraud..
ibz1550rg September 22nd, 2014 at 1:46 pm
because they trust the people around them. we are like family in these groups because we all strongly believe in what we are doing, in the face of those of who ridicule us.
DJD11 September 21st, 2014 at 12:38 pm
“A person may legally carry, either open or concealed, in a non-threatening or alarming manner, a shotgun or rifle…”
Wouldn’t a “non-threatening manner” be on their back and not the front?
Larry Schmitt September 21st, 2014 at 12:49 pm
And unloaded, which one news story after another shows is clearly not the case.
StoneyCurtisll September 21st, 2014 at 1:35 pm
Who needs to carry a rifle or shotgun on the streets of Uhmerica?
I’m old enough to remember way back in the day when the Black Panthers exercised their right to “open carry” weapons when they marched…
The outrage and freakout from white people was palpable..(white folks where scared to death)..
And where is the NRA today?..
They are in the business of selling white people guns..(for reasons that need not be mentioned).

One of my wingnut Facebook friends posted an item today about a group of old white people who were robbed in MO, and the “thugs” who took their money allegedly said “This is for Michael Brown!”.
Yeah, that sucks, but as expected, the outrage over some white people having a few bucks taken from them was as extreme as the elation the same people felt at an unarmed black guy being killed by a cop.
annaaurora September 21st, 2014 at 12:46 pm
Nothing says sexy like a rifle between your tits. This is just ridiculous, support women. Put the guns away and sign a petition or two. Otherwise the blood is on your hands.

Not impressed. As the right-wing trolls like to say: Try again.
Ol Blue September 21st, 2014 at 2:31 pm
Ladies, treat your gun like your vagina. Don’t brandish it in public and don’t try to scare anyone with it.
fahvel September 21st, 2014 at 4:44 pm
very possibly they are reacting to the dickless males throughout texas.

All pathetic beta males who wet themselves at the thought of having to touch a gun, much less actually use one.
