Texas has a concealed carry law, something that it did not have when I lived there, but one of the consequences there is make things more convenient for lobbyists in Austin:

……Well, I hear from a friend that lobbyists visiting the Texas state capitol building have started applying for concealed carry licenses. Why? Because as you pass through the metal detector to get into the capitol building, there’s a separate – basically empty – line for people who have a license to carry a concealed weapon. So the lobbyists are applying for the license in order to take the short line.

The body politic of the great state of Texas is a maggot ridden zombie……With a case of the clap.
