4. The Texas republicans who chose the 50th anniversary

of the University of Texas tower shootings for the day the open carry law goes into effect are the vilest sort of human beings.

These legislators are purposely mocking the 16 dead and 32 wounded, the families and friends of the dead, the two courageous police who risked their lives to confront the shooter head on, and all students and staff at the UT now.

I was at college (far away, in Washington state) at the time. The UT tower shooting was such a shock that students even thousands of miles away never really got over it. I am still not over it. Shame on the Texas legislature.
