Perry Gets It
Perry Calls For Gun-Toting Freedom In Texas
April 30, 2007 06:31 PM
While people across the country have called for gun control in the wake of Virginia Tech, Gov. Rick Perry called for gun freedom Monday.
Perry met with U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Michael Leavitt, who is traveling the country to decide how the government can prepare schools for these types of situations.
Perry said Texas should consider allowing licensed, law-abiding citizens to carry their authorized weapon anywhere in the state.
"Whether it's on a college campus or wherever, and frankly, I think it's time for our citizens to be able to protect themselves," Perry said. "The last time I checked, putting up a sign that says, 'Don't bring your gun in here,' for someone who has ill intent on their mind, they could (not) care less."
