Alcee Hastings: 'Crazy' Texas bars shooting bears from second-story windows

By W. Gardner Selby February 12, 2015

In a telephone interview with CNN, U.S. Rep. Alcee Hastings, D-Florida, offered factually flawed examples of "crazy" Texas laws.

PolitiFact Florida found Mostly False a Hastings' claim that Texas restricts the number of dildos a person may buy.

Now we've lit a match to Hastings' statement that Texas bars the shooting of bears from second-floor windows, or words to that effect.

Britches on Fire!
