In my opinion, the only people who should have handguns are the police.

I grew up in Texas in a family that fished and hunted, so I've shot guns as a kid.

Most people who are looking to get a handgun are going to get a carry permit. But most people don't carry around rifles with them; they keep them at home or at the range.

Why would anybody not own a gun?

I do not believe in people owning guns. Guns should be owned only by the police and military. I am going to do everything I can to disarm this state.

I'm a gun owner.

Every time guns fall into the wrong hands and are used to intimidate, injure, or murder women, it erodes the rights of responsible gun owners everywhere.

Cop families have guns in their houses.

I'm a Texan - my idea of gun control is hitting what you aim at and nothing else.

There are some circles in America where it seems to be more socially acceptable to carry a hand-gun than a packet of cigarettes.
