Heh. That's one of the little things about Texas that I wish the rest of the country had... the comfort to not have a cow over a guy with a gun. If I had it my way, anyone in the country could walk anywhere with a gun.

If they're getting drunk, that isn't a very good idea. The news might have faded on Katrina and New Orleans a bit, but there are still people in there looting, and cops have their hands full with it. A bunch of guys with shot guns getting drunk and missinterpretting everyone as a looter would be rather bad for the situation.

I believe that the man on the end in the blue shirt is sporting a pistol in one hand and a can o' beer in the other. I believe that Tofu's suspicions were correct.
