- 0:18Well, welcome to the live to shoot podcast.
- 0:20My name is Jeff Dowdell and I've been a licensed firearm dealer for the last 13 years.
- 0:24And this podcast, we're talking about all things related to the second amendment and mold.
- 0:27You might throw in a sports story or anything else going on in the world around us today.
- 0:33So welcome.
- 0:33Welcome.
- 0:34Welcome today is Wednesday, September 8th and.
- 0:38It is a feeling a little bit like fall out there this morning.
- 0:41I'm still going to be in the nineties here in Texas.
- 0:44So I am still ready for it to cool off.
- 0:47But you know, football season has started the my horn frogs won their first game last week against Duquesne.
- 0:55I think the cane university don't know anything about them.
- 1:0042 to nothing.
- 1:02The only thing that, you know, where they made some news was the professor had a professor saying that he thought it was okay for white people to kill themselves.
- 1:11But other than that then knows too much about them play Cal Berkeley this weekend taken away.
- 1:17Going to the technique, my youngest there, his brother, who's a freshmen.
- 1:21There will be there.
- 1:21So we'll, we'll take in that game as a family and we'll see how it goes.
- 1:26And then tomorrow my Cowboys start off against the box and T B12 that look good.
- 1:32You know, So bowl champs return all 22 back to the, to their starting lineup.
- 1:39So we'll see what the Cowboys do, but if you watch hard knocks, you know, Hey, we got a chance out there.
- 1:45So it has now been a week since constitutional carry went into effect in the state of Texas.
- 1:53And.
- 1:54Contrary to what people are were fearing.
- 1:58There has not been blood in the streets.
- 2:00Mayhem has not taken over.
- 2:01It has been relatively calm.
- 2:04And thank you.
- 2:05No, I think we'll, we'll approve out as we anticipate that constitutional carry is just like, it is it's constitutional and that it will make us safer and that in the long run protecting our second amendment.
- 2:19Right.
- 2:20Is the, is the quickest way to protect ourselves.
- 2:24So.
- 2:25What's key.
- 2:26And I know a lot of my good number.
- 2:28Most of my listeners actually, aren't good in Texas.
- 2:30They're everywhere in this.
- 2:31A lot of them from California.
- 2:32So California, please eat this.
- 2:35I mean this, the, these are things that you need to hear that's going on in the real world out there.
- 2:41Well, so what's constitutional care.
- 2:42Do one.
- 2:43It allows individuals over 20.
- 2:45To carry handgun openly in a holster or concealed in a non prohibited places for protectionism themselves, without having to first obtain a license to carry keeps all the same penalties.
- 2:56It has prohibitions on who can carry still and where you can carry.
- 3:03If you're on there's still the, the signs that can be posted.
- 3:07There are prohibited places.
- 3:09You can, you may see a in Texas, you're used to seeing what we call the 36 and the 37 sign 36 says, Hey, you can't.
- 3:19Licensed to you.
- 3:20Can't conceal carry 38 7 says you can't open carry.
- 3:25And a lot of times you will see one or both.
- 3:29If you see a 37 more than likely you'll have a 36 There's well, sometimes you may just have a 30 out six or 37, but I'm one or the other, or both is, is prohibited.
- 3:43Now there is a 35 that restricts people without a license to carry to conceal carry in there.
- 3:50So 35 is kind of the highest level that you see that sign.
- 3:55Then that means me as the licensed to carry holder can still carry within that place.
- 4:00And, and so on.
- 4:01So And if you have a 37 that's means you're open carry with a license to carry.
- 4:07So there are some differences or some nuances about it, but you know, licensed to carry is still there.
- 4:14For those reasons people can still get it.
- 4:16You can also have the reciprocity to con be able to carry concealed in those states that don't have open carry.
- 4:21It makes buying a farm easier.
- 4:23All those things are positive things about why we put in.
- 4:28Constitutional carry.
- 4:29And again, like I said, it's been a week and, you know, while it's kind of thundering and lightning out here in the back, the world right here, the world has not come to an end.
- 4:40And this is just one thing where the state of Texas is, you know, out there protecting her rights and.
- 4:47You know, given for those people that are my listeners in other states, especially those in California, you need to listen.
- 4:53You need to listen to what people in Texas is doing.
- 4:56We've had a lot of controversy here in Texas.
- 4:58I haven't agreed to everything governor Abbott has done.
- 5:00But he still, you know, the legislature gone through got constitutional carry, got the heartbeat bill passed.
- 5:07So you can't abort a baby once their heartbeat is, is, is hell you know, we don't have any state income tax.
- 5:14We've got constitutional carry.
- 5:16We've got some election integrity laws that got passed.
- 5:18So, you know, w we're out there trying to keep this state free and free and safe.
- 5:24And and you know, we're, we're fighting against it.
- 5:27We're fighting uphill.
- 5:27We got, you know the border that we were struggling with, that we're trying to protect ourselves from, but, you know, without any help from the federal government, All the listeners out there.
- 5:38You need to encourage your state.
- 5:39Start following Texas and Florida lead, especially California.
- 5:43And my message G all my California listeners is get out and recall.
- 5:49Gavin Newsome the elections coming up next week.
- 5:54First step vote.
- 5:55Yes.
- 5:55On recall.
- 5:57Then after that you get a list of, I think 42 candidates to choose from my choice was Larry elder.
- 6:03I think he'll do great things for the state of California and you need to get out there and, and do it and that's, and that will be another shot across the bow of these leftist Biden regime that they, they aren't.
- 6:18They aren't they're, their ideas are not what the public wants.
- 6:21Just because they have control over the media and they can control these, this narrative, but when he needed to continue to fight for these things.
- 6:29And so it encouraged her state legislatures to get out there and pass things like constitutional care.
- 6:35Duplicate the heartbeat, bill protect our unborn, keep them safe.
- 6:40They are precious precious commodities that we need to continue to, to Protect for those that cannot protect themselves.
- 6:48Recall Gavin Newsom, election integrity.
- 6:50Let's have audits of our elections.
- 6:52I don't care.
- 6:53Texas, that could be the blues blue are red and red.
- 6:57I'm sorry.
- 6:58Lose my mind there, but I still believe we need to audit these elections.
- 7:02It only makes sense what, I don't understand what, you know, I never ensued when we're certifying these elections and we're sitting there and they're openly thing.
- 7:11Hey, well, yeah, we had more people vote than are registered or right there.
- 7:17You ought to stop that I can say that's not possible.
- 7:19How can I certify this?
- 7:20All the numbers need to add up and we need to make sure that we keep our elections safe and secure.
- 7:26So just a little more ranting.
- 7:28But I did want to let y'all know that things are safe and sound here in Texas.
- 7:32Once we've opened up the wild, wild west of the law and constitutional carry and.
- 7:37We'll be out on the main streets and again, encourage your own state legislatures to start passing these types of laws.
- 7:44It will definitely benefit the country as a whole take care.
- 7:47And I will talk to you next week.
