Houston mayor pushes gun control for Texas

In the United States, we typically know how political lines fall. Big cities tend to support things like gun control while rural areas don’t. The higher the percentage of a state’s population lives in those bigger cities, the higher the likelihood that the state isn’t real big on supporting the Second Amendment.

It’s kind of how things go. So it’s no surprise to see the mayor of a major city call for gun control. Not even in a pro-gun state like Texas.

Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner says the number of mass shootings increased after Governor Greg Abbott signed the permitless carry bill last year.
