I applaud Texas for not trampling on her First amendment rights, but I can still make fun of Texas for taking other "rights" overboard. That's awesome!

But I'll bet you don't come here and break into my neighbor's house!

And if those signs work, why does my little "No Solicitors" label above my doorbell not keep them away?

Maybe they don't notice it because you're in Texas, where everything is supposed to be bigger?

Ha! I wouldn't break into your neighbors house anyway, but it doesn't stop people from breaking into homes regardless. It's not about deterring crime anyway! I personally don't think a flat screen TV is worth someone's life...especially when someone is running away from the scene with it and not an eminent threat to anyone.
