No. 24: All Hat and No Cattle

Texans for the Open Carry Lifestyle Organizer,

Kory Watkins ordering a sammich for himself 

and Mr. AK-47. 

When CJ Grisham finally lands that job with Moms or Mayors, his first official act should be hiring Tarrant County Open Carry Lifestyle organizer, Kory Watkins.  Watkins shares with Grisham that special genius for losing hearts and minds.

His trademark AK-47, reflective smock, Fedora and Vans gave Watkins a unique swagger.  Arlington Police cut short his moment in the limelight.  Mercifully.  Cops snatched his gun and read Miranda into his stupid face after he got too far up in their grill.  

Watkins, et al, mug shots without fancy hats

Let’s be honest.  Watkins let everyone down.  Even Gun Violence Prevention people were praying for a Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid type exit from this kooky pants.  But that didn’t happen and begs the question, aren’t Carriers and Oathers supposed to abide by some sacred credo to resist confiscation with their dying breath?  You know, ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ and all that silliness?  Real Texans have an expression for guys like Watkins:  all hat and no cattle.
