If you want to see a Texas Republican's head explode, ask him which he loves better, Jesus or his gun collection. The legislature in Texas is mostly made up of Republicans who don't give a shit about government or know much about it, but they love their guns.
This grinning asshole is first-term tea party Rep. Steve Toth of The Woodlands. His claim to fame is that he introduced a bill in the current session which was passed overwhelmingly by voice vote. Steve's measure "would nullify within state borders any federal laws banning assault weapons or high-capacity magazines, or expansion of background checks for firearms owners..." according to an AP report by Will Weissert.
Then we have this fucking waste of space, Rep. Brandon Creighton of Conroe, who "sponsored a bill to punish by up to a year in jail and a 4,000 dollar fine police officers or government officials who try to enforce federal firearms limits in Texas." That masterpiece of legislative brilliance also passed by voice vote.
The good news is that while House Republicans are entertaining themselves with circle jerks, they aren't doing anything that would actually make life worse for people like me.
