Texas Saves Gun Shops In Psych Wards, Sanity Optional
In an undate-stamped yet timeless Texas maneuver straight out of the 'What Could Possibly Go Wrong?' playbook, the Texas House of Representatives proudly thwarted a bill that aimed to stop gun stores from sprouting up inside hospital psychiatric wards. According to their staunch defense, the government must not interfere with 'honest business owners' vending semiautomatic handguns and riflesâapparently even when their prime customers are battling mental health crises. No figures, no gun store names, just a proud nod to constitutional rightsâand questionable location choices. Texas remains committed to uniquely blending healthcare with firearm retail, ensuring a complex cocktail of rights and risks all in one psych ward package. Because logic, like bullets, seems to find unexpected homes here.
