A Texas gun store is facing criticism from some community members after advertising a"back to school sale," according to KTRK-TV.
The store also promoted the summer sale on its Facebook page, however it did not use the"back to school" phrasing in those posts. "I hope it was just some kind of glaring oversight. I would rather see any other kind of wording on their board," Simons said."What does back to school have anything to do with getting guns?"
"A lot of Texans are not aware, but it is now legal to conceal carry in some colleges, and for teachers in certain school districts to conceal carry as well. We are wrapping up the program that we have been running since the beginning of June, with a huge sale to benefit everyone," the store said in a statement.
