TX AG Paxton Sues Dallas Over State Fair Gun Ban
From Bearing Arms:
With the fair set to kick off in less than a month, Paxton followed through on his threat on Thursday by suing the city and the state fair in district court. Paxton is asking the court to block the ban through both temporary and permanent injunctions, arguing that while While some portions of Fair Park are “gun-free zones” as established by state statute, the “vast majority of the 277-acre Fair Park in Dallas is not a place where weapons or firearms are prohibited.”
If the fair moves forward with its carry ban, Paxton says lawful gun owners are either subject to arrest, or are going to be forced to comply with an unlawful rule in order to enter the fair.
Texas AG Threatens Suit Over State Fair Gun Ban
From The Truth About Guns:
According to the AG’s office, in 2002 the City of Dallas entered into a 25-year lease with the State Fair of Texas authorizing the nonprofit organization to take control of the governmental function of Fair Park during the 24 days of the annual event. Consequently, the new carry rule directly violates state law, which permits licensed gun owners to lawfully carry in places owned or leased by governmental entities unless otherwise prohibited by state law.
“Texas law clearly states that license to carry holders may not be prevented from carrying a firearm on property owned or leased by the government unless otherwise prevented by state statute,” Paxton said in a news release from his office. “The State Fair of Texas’s recent policy that infringes on LTC holders’ Second Amendment rights is unlawful. Dallas has 15 days to fix the issue, otherwise I will see them in court.”

From Bearing Arms:

None of the armed citizens were injured in that volley, and the suspect and his two friends fled the area after being met with the armed response.

Across Texas, 60,000 babies of noncitizens get U.S. birthright
Posted by Jack Sinclair in Law, News on 8/Aug/2010 18:34
By SHERRY JACOBSON / The Dallas Morning News
“As Republican members of Congress press for changes to the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, preventing automatic citizenship for babies born to illegal immigrants, opponents insist the debate is not really about babies.
Still, the debate could resonate in Texas, where not only 1.5 million illegal immigrants are estimated to reside but at least 60,000 babies are added to their households annually.
Parkland Memorial Hospital delivers more of those babies than any other hospital in the state. Last year at Parkland, 11,071 babies were born to women who were noncitizens, about 74 percent of total deliveries. Most of these women are believed to be in the country illegally.”
