The president of the State Board of Education has stated that the SBOE was in the process of correcting all social studies curriculum requirements to include a week long emphasis on the need for all Texans to adequately appreciate and admire guns and expect all Texans to own and carry a minimum of 3 guns in order to protect the state from encroachments by the federal government and other anti-American heretics.

New teacher training programs are already developed to train teachers, administrators, and support staff in the proper use of firearms although only administrators will be allowed to carry automatic weapons. 

To help with this measure,the legislature has nullified the sales tax on guns.  State Representative A.S. Shole said that their was no reason to place a burdensome tax on guns when the state doesn't tax other essentials like food. The legislature is also going to award tax exempt status to any business that sells guns since other religious organizations get tax breaks. 

When Mr. Shole was asked about the prohibitive cost of providing training in the  use of guns to all school personel when the state has not replaced out of date social studies textbooks, Mr. Shole said, "There's always money available for important things and guns are important.  To much book-learnin' may make kids think for themselves and that can be dangerous.  The social studies books need to be rewritten anyway to reflect the truth about our God-given right to own guns and the truth about American exceptionalism and God's special blessing on America.  We must fight against anyone who teaches anything other than what TERA commands."

In addition, the legislature overwhelmingly voted to change the state motto from "friendship" to "straight shooters" which was chosen over "Guns and God" because it carries both a "pro-gun and anti-gay message that all true Texans believe" according to the official statement from the propoganda office of the state legislature.
