(<em>Photo: Facebook<\/em>)<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Once again open carry advocate Kory Watkins is stirring the pot in order to call attention to gun rights in Texas.<\/p>\n<p>Watkins, the leader of Open Carry Tarrant County, blasted lawmakers who voted against House Bill 910 via his Facebook page Thursday morning.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m calling for the arrest of every elected official in Texas that voted against open carry. They should be arrested, charged with treason and should face a punishment that could result in being hung from the tree of liberty,\u201d wrote Watkins. \u201cWhat do you think gets their attention more after they go against the people? Some phone calls? Or actual liberty or death?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As <a href=\"https:\/\/www.texastribune.org\/2015\/05\/27\/police-chiefs-provisionl-handcuffs-law-enforcement\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"advocate-to-texas-lawmakers-voting-against-gun-bill-hung-from-the-tree-of-liberty\" title=\"Advocate to Texas Lawmakers Voting Against Gun Bill: \u2018Hung from the Tree of Liberty\u2019\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Texas Tribune<\/a> pointed out, the controversy over House Bill 910 was with respect to a provision that would limit the power of law enforcement to ask those openly carrying firearms to present their permits.<\/p>\n<p>This is not the first time Watkins posted controversial comments on Facebook. Earlier this year Watkins posted a video in which he brought up the \u201cpunishable by death\u201d suggestion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe should demanding these people give us our rights back or it\u2019s punishable by death. Treason. Do you understand how serious this is Texas?\u201d Watkins asked in the <a href=\"\/blog\/open-carry-activist-go-far-punishable-death-threat\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"advocate-to-texas-lawmakers-voting-against-gun-bill-hung-from-the-tree-of-liberty\" title=\"Advocate to Texas Lawmakers Voting Against Gun Bill: \u2018Hung from the Tree of Liberty\u2019\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">video<\/a>. \u201cThis is treason against the American people. You don\u2019t sell my right back to me. You\u2019re going to find trouble.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Many gun owners find his rhetoric inflammatory and over-the-top and ultimately detrimental to the cause because gun-control organization waste no time in disseminating his opinions as if they represent the average gun owner.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese antics are no longer just theatrics and dramatic advocacy, open carry extremists have been threatening the safety and sanity of our communities for far too long and now they are threatening the lives of Texas legislators,\u201d said Moms Demand Action volunteer Claire Larson back in February.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Once again open carry advocate Kory Watkins is stirring the pot in order to call attention to gun rights in Texas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":34,"featured_media":37850,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_specdata_upc":"","_specdata_placement":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[244,7,216,240],"tags":[132,122],"featured":[],"hunt365":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-37848","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-2nd-amendment-r2kba","8":"category-gunsamerica-authors","9":"category-s-h-blannelberry","10":"category-this-week","11":"tag-buzz","12":"tag-r2kba"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.3 (Yoast SEO v27.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Advocate to Texas Lawmakers Voting Against Gun Bill: \u2018Hung from the Tree of Liberty\u2019<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Once again open carry advocate Kory Watkins is stirring the pot in order to call attention to gun rights in Texas.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/advocate-to-texas-lawmakers-voting-against-gun-bill-hung-from-the-tree-of-liberty\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Advocate to Texas Lawmakers Voting Against Gun Bill: \u2018Hung from the Tree of Liberty\u2019\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Once again open carry advocate Kory Watkins is stirring the pot in order to call attention to gun rights in Texas.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/advocate-to-texas-lawmakers-voting-against-gun-bill-hung-from-the-tree-of-liberty\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Gun Reviews and News | GunsAmerica.com\/Digest\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/gunsamerica\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2015-05-29T15:21:08+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2023-08-18T18:37:45+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/11222794_1019267621431757_1153996634693090516_n.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"400\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"S.H.
