From our Texas friends at YNN Austin, Texas Gov. Rick Perry sounded off on New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s pledge to pass the strongest gun control laws in the country, saying there’s no chance he could make the Queens native a Texan and agree on gun control
Perry, whose presidential ambitions face planted this past summer, also threw in a dig at Cuomo over the Texan economy.
“I’m sure I couldn’t get all 49 other governors to admit they would want to be Texans. Just reading the front of the Drudge Report today, I’m thinking Governor Cuomo would not admit he would want to be a Texan. But if he would be truthful, he would say that the economic climate that has allowed that state to grow and create jobs, he would dearly love to be able to stand up in say ‘We did this in New York. But he can’t.”
Perry hasn’t ruled out making another run for president in 2016.
Truth be told, I’m not entirely sure what Perry means about making Cuomo want to be a Texan and how any of this relates to gun control per se.

I'm not a Perry fan ... but the 2nd Amendment is the 1st Amendment in Texas and finds favor with me.
