Bill Continued from Page 1 Patterson said that would follow a state constitutional provision giv ing only the Legislature the power to regulate carrying arms. The bill would delete a ban in state law on carrying concealed handguns in churches, nursing homes, amusement parks and in most areas of hospitals. Such pri vate entities still could pass their own prohibitions, and a state ban would continue on carrying con cealed handguns into emergency rooms or trauma centers. Among other provisions, the bill would allow people convicted of nonviolent felonies, but whose records have been wiped clean through deferred adjudication and who have had their other rights re stored, to be eligible for permits.

Florence Shapiro, R-Plano, who voted for the 1995 law but voiced concern about some the current bill’s provisions. Patterson said there likely would be changes to his bill, but main tained that it would make Texas safer by giving responsible people the means to protect themselves in more instances. He said the same kind of arguments made against this bill were used by opponents of the 1995 measure. “The predicted blood in the streets obviously did not occur,” he said. “Show me an example where a con cealed handgun license holder has done any of these bizarre and danger ous things. (Opponents say) ‘Well, we just have a hunch.’ ...We don’t restrict citizens’ constitutional rights based upon a hunch or based upon hysteria or based upon an assumption.” attalion McDonald Bldg, i.
