So far, so good for the Texas power grid. During extreme weather though, "rolling blackouts" may be needed. Even though it doesn't seem like they're allowed.
Creative landlords can find any "emergencies" if they are motivated to snoop. I love the motion sensor and internet-enabled cameras I install around any rented unit. If the landlord comes in when I'm not there, I want to know why.
The hope behind this law is that there will be a "good guy with a gun" to stop a school shooting. Honestly, I believe it is a good idea... in some cases.
