No Gays But Lotsa Guns!
The Texas Republican State Convention is going to be this weekend in Fort Worth.
The gays have been excommunicated and will not be allowed to have a booth at the convention because they are dangerous. Not booths, gays. Booths are probably not vicious in any manner. Unless, of course, gays are in them. Then … well, liberty.
But guns? Hell, yeah.
“We expect to have people there carrying weapons,” Munisteri explained. “It’s a Republican crowd and that’s a crowd that’s used to people packing.
“If the city and the convention center leave it up to us, we will allow open carry and, of course, anyone with a concealed-carry license.”
Now the city of Fort Worth says you cannot open carry at their convention center because alcohol is going to be served there. Of course it is. How else could anybody stand being around that damn many Super DeLux Brand Christians?
And speaking of the Steeple People, what do you get when you combine guns, alcohol, and God? I mean, other than a rogue drunk Taliban clique. You get this —
Pastor Holcomb
Pastor Terry Holcomb, who is president of Texas Carry and a delegate from San Jacinto, said that the plan was to force the legislature to change the law.
“We’re trying to continue the pressure on the issue,” he said. “We’re hoping to get lawmakers’ attention by open-carrying during the convention.”
So Pastor Holcomb is trying to get the Texas Lege to allow carrying long guns while pushing back a few beers. Because, well … Jesus.
In our ongoing effort to provide you with top quality educational opportunities, we thought you’d like to know that assault rifles are a Mexican invention. Thanks to our friend Richard over at The Mex Files, you now have information to pass along to the ammosexuals.
What did Jesus say about guns?
1So…the “pastor” must be a Kristain.
Pastor Terry Holcomb preaches WWJS (who would Jesus shoot) instead of WWJD.
2Also, why would these people carry guns at their own convention? Are they afraid of the old white guy who might look gay?
3Who in the world are these people afraid of? And why is their faith in God not enough to carry them through the day without brandishing weapons? Of course, they do realize that as long as they open or conceal carry at their gatherings (such as church) that they are going to go right to the top of the list the FBI et al. keep on churches that ain’t churches just like the IRS looked hard at all the 501 (c) (3)’s from right wingers who claimed to be do social/community/educational work? Smart? NOT!!!!
Can’t shake the feeling that there will be gunfire at one of these events, followed by hysteria (from the “leadership”). You will know they are the leadership when they come out with some wacko “reason” for the tragedy.
4“It’s a Republican crowd and that’s a crowd that’s used to people packing.”
A song parody just waiting to happen. What a bunch of maroons as Bugs would say.
5Who’s in charge of the Viagra booth? Will they also sell extra, extra, extra small condoms?
I hope all the pavement princesses in Ft Worth get their vaccinations in time.
6So these folks basically had a choice between guns or alcohol and they chose alcohol?
Wow.
I’m sort of impressed.
7What Would Jesus Do? Not carry a gun or persecute gays or be a Republican.
8Can’t wait for the TV shots of guns everywhere at the Texas Republican convention, and then of course the gun shots.
9It should prove to enforce their image of ignorance and hate.
If the ammosexual’s goal is to “force the legislature to change the law” then it just may work. Legislatures everywhere may end up tightening gun laws ’cause there are just too many nuts showing off how nutty they are.
10These folks are going to “force the legislature to change the law” by waving big guns at them? And everybody else too. Last time I looked they had a word for that = INSURRECTION. I mean, where is the sense of proportion here? All OWS did was camp out and they got their heads beat on, maced, arrested and convicted.
11Well I say there is nothing like a gaggle of crazy Texans with loaded long guns at a GOP convention to scare the bejesus out of some alcohol swigging pandering/corporate shills from the Texas legislator. Go for it guys.
12Lat week I watched a movie set in a remote area of Pakistan. The father wanted to teach his son the family trade, guns. People packed, open carry, every once in a while someone would step outside of their shop and fire a rifle into the air.
After awhile I thought it all looked familiar in a way. Then I realized, it’s the NRAs dream come true, with beards.
13@Maggie: Here is the way its going to happen. There is going to be one wise ass in the convention who will give in to the temptation to reach over and pull the trigger just to see what happens.
Course it will be a Obama’s fault if it does happen.
14I’m glad I’ll be very far away from TX. Good luck.
15Thank you for the files..they are fab! The midget tranvistite wrestlers in league with vampires were one of my favorite late night TV of my crAZy childhood, once when we were at a convention in LA it was on and I made my then husband watch it–such a classic! Wish I could remember the name of it!
16So the history of the invention of that terrible we open was interesting.
Am I a bad person for wanting the special deluxe Kristians to shoot themselves? I try to be better than that, but I’ve been feeling pushed over the edge lately. Couldn’t happen to a nicer group of people–sorta.
Sorry spell -check helped me, “terrible weapon”.
17I don’t know how serious they are….. but when you scare the hell out of the NRA….. you may want to re-think that “packing heat” …… open carry thing.

Just sayin’
18Sing along time….
19Chain chain chain….. chain of fools….
Remember Tom Lehrer? Remember his song about “just in case…I’m gonna build a bomb.” This has the same beat and could be sung to the same tune with a couple extra notes:
“It’s a Republican crowd,
and that’s a crowd
that’s used to people packing.”
I think it’s time for a Tom Lehrer revival.
20With any luck (and maybe some prayer) they’ll depopulate the place with their “unintended” discharges.
But yeah, threatening the lege by carrying guns where it’s not legal to carry guns is indeed a sign of lawlessness and I would say insurrection. Of course, they’ll call it the necessary revolution. And then I”ll say….oh, never mind.
That pastor? He’s not a Christian. He’s a lying scumsucking limb of Satan.
21I tried to google this guy and got NOTHING on his church other than it appears to be a shotgun shack. Can anybody with a doublewide outhouse call themselves a pastor?
22There are ways to “pastorize” oneself. The ones who went to seminary aren’t real thrilled with them but hey, freedom.
23Marge, it’s sorta like milk. He got “Pastorized”. Just don’t keep him past the safe date.
(Now I get that Bible/gun graphic JJ has on Facebook. Guns is a gift from God, yall!)
24I enjoyed the term “Steeple People” and then, it occurred to me, these guns are nothing more than extensions of their “manhoods…” to be sure, AND the Steeple is a long-held(Ha!) phallic symbol too, so it seems, Steeple People carrying guns doth protest too much. We don’t even wonder anymore– we know what they are endowed with. I agree also with someone up the thread who called them Kristians, sorta like Krabkakes…phony to the core. Well, you couldn’t pay me to come to Texas…keep safe, those of you who have to live there.
25Holcomb has been involved in numerous public confrontations lately for openly carrying firearms. Let’s lay the cards on the table. This is a wacko who continues to seek some insane martyrdom in an ultimate public shootout, and he doesn’t much care about the collateral damage when he provokes his triumphal incident. Something much worse involving Holcomb is bound to happen.
