We visited State Representative Dennis Paul at his home to discuss gun safety

Don't get your hopes up. Paul got wind of our event and left the house but not before calling HPD and the Harris County Constables which were very professional, offered an escort if needed, and provided information to keep our event safe and legal.

About 25 of us went to Paul's house in House District 129 to encourage him to DO SOMETHING. In a letter we left we said:

We are calling on you to DO SOMETHING to curb gun violence in our state. The time for thoughts and prayers is over. It is time for significant legislative action. We urge you to encourage Governor Abbott to call a special session to address gun violence immediately and in time for opening of our schools for the upcoming school year.


Paul is what is called an NRA bitch. He would walk around the voting locations wearing his stupid looking NRA hat as if it would get him more votes. His votes for every gun nut bill has put our kids, parents, teachers, and law enforcement at risk.


You have co-sponsored many of the gun bills during the 2021 session including open carry, permitless carry, and permitting the ownership of silencers with no support from law enforcement. You not only have put our children, and the public at risk, you have also made it more dangerous for our police to do their already dangerous jobs. You have put their everyones lives in danger and this must come to an end.


Enough is enough. Thanks to KHOU for reporting on this event. You can see the entire segment here. We are in the 2nd half of the coverage. We left pictures of the kids and teachers killed in Uvalde for him to remember what he is partially responsible for.
