Texas AG Takes Aim at Gun Ban: Defends Second Amendment Rights

In a bold move to protect citizens' constitutional rights, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has taken legal action against the State Fair of Texas, challenging their recently implemented firearm ban. This comes just weeks after fair organizers unveiled the controversial plan following a shooting incident last year on the iconic grounds.

GOP leaders swiftly condemned the decision, citing concerns that it would undermine Texans' freedom to bear arms – a cornerstone of American liberties. As promised, AG Paxton followed through on his threat to take legal action should the ban stand.

Citing existing state laws, Paxton emphasized that public spaces like the 277-acre fairground cannot prohibit licensed individuals from carrying concealed handguns. "Neither the City of Dallas nor the State Fair of Texas can infringe on Texans' right to self-defense," he declared unequivocally.

Meanwhile, the City of Dallas distanced itself from the controversy, claiming they had no hand in shaping the fair's revamped weapon policies. According to them, "[the]City [was] not involved in the State Fair of Texas' announcement...[and] operates under control of a private, non-profit entity."
