A man named Houston waits for his bus as a group of more than 20 people with the pro-gun organization, Come and Take it Houston, walk down Bagby Street during a rally to educate people about local gun laws Thursday, July 4, 2013, in Houston. 
&quot;To be honest with you I personally don't promote gun violence or guns period. If you've got weapons use your hands,&quot; Houston said. &quot;Use sticks and stones if you have to . Bullets take too many lives, for no reason.&quot;
 &quot;This is a Come and Take it Houston walk to help inform citizens about the gun laws here in Texas,&quot; co-organizer  Kenneth Lindbloom said. &quot;In Texas there are no restrictions on the open cary of long arms like rifles and shotguns. We want people to realize that in the hands of good people, guns are not dangerous and they don't kill people. When good people have guns it serves as a deterrent to stop crime.&quot;( Johnny Hanson / Houston Chronicle ) Photo: Houston Chronicle
