city council needs to draft a ruling on gun shops. i am not anti-weapons, however more and more of this is going to happen. security is the key.

Scary stuff - yet more guns out there for the criminals to use - why wouldn't a gun shop, of all places, have an alarm system that immediately notifies someone that they have been broken into? Ignorance on the part of the shop-owner it looks like. Well, lately Brenham PD and Washington County SO have been really good at catching criminals, so hopefully they will get some leads and catch the perps again.

Joe it is AR-15 and AK-47. Many people also have these type of weapons. New Orleans was a wake up call.

I have more weapons then this and I Keep them in 3-safes. I Have a alarm system and video system. You need to keep your guns locked up. A firearm used to shot a caldwell Officer a few weeks back was stolen from Bryan.
