US gun laws: Texas state eases restrictions

Since recent mass shootings in Texas, eight new pro-gun laws passed in state with highest number of registered guns.

As Congress in the United States continues to debate possible gun-control measures, the state of Texas has moved in the opposite direction, making guns more accessible.

That’s despite two mass shootings in the cities of El Paso and Odessa in August.

But in Texas, owning and carrying a gun has actually become easier.
