"Instructors would also have the right to use deadly force “in defense of property of the school that employs the educator.”
"...civil immunity would be granted to those who use deadly force, meaning they would not be liable for the injury or death of student."
Texas state Rep. Dan Flynn, Republican ( written with a gigantic R, that is dripping with red blood ) wants this nightmare vision to be part of the law.)

Texas To Install ‘Panic Buttons’ In Capitol After Open-Carry Nuts Start Showing Up To Threaten Politicians
In a disturbing video posted to social media, open-carry advocates from the group “Open Carry Tarrant County” pile into the office of Texas Rep. Poncho Nevarez (Eagle Pass), and start demanding to know his stance on gun control. At issue is a new bill led by Texas Republicans that would repeal a century-long ban on openly carrying handguns. To his immense credit, Nevarez doesn’t waiver from his position that he is for strong gun control laws, however that position led to the group hurling ugly accusations, and finally, outright threats at him.
(15 to 20 members of the group Open Carry Tarrant County visited several lawmaker offices urging them to support House Bill 195, which seeks to undo Texas' 125-year ban on the open carry of handguns.)
OCTC members began calling Nevarez a “tyrant”, exhorted him to “read the Constitution” and told him “you won’t be here long.”
One of them responded to the order to leave the office with “This is the people’s office!” Another told Nevarez “Don’t touch me” when Nevarez apparently tried to lead him to the door. After Nevarez said “I’m asking you to leave my office,” the man responded “I’m asking you to leave my state because you don’t take your oath seriously.” As they were leaving one even stuck his foot in the doorway, then asked “What are you gonna do?” when Nevarez told him to move his foot. He then challenged someone in the hallway.
Open carrier: “What are you gonna do, touch me or something? You creeping up behind me?”
The man says he’s not.
Open carrier: “That’d be one wrong move, bro.”
The group wasn’t done. Deciding the harassment of one politician and his staff was not enough to make their point (or prove that they are dangerous bullies, whichever came first), the group also reportedly went to the office of another politician who dared not agree with them. Lucky for him, he was out of the office that day. Unfortunately, his staff was there to face the group’s ire and said they felt “uncomfortable.”
Dallas Morning News also noted that open-carry supporters had set up a booth nearby with a 3D printer that was churning out handguns throughout the day. Yes, that’s correct. Printing guns during a protest.
What is the point of carrying a bananas your holster, when you are not permitted to carry a gun in that area?
" Open Carry Tarrant County supporters have been hanging around the Legislature with holsters containing plastic bananas instead of actual guns. The visual symbolism of banana skins cannot be lost on anyone at this point."
"...civil immunity would be granted to those who use deadly force, meaning they would not be liable for the injury or death of student."
