Shooter incident at elementary school in Uvalde, Texas - 19 children and 2 adults dead

Has any reporter ever asked a pro open carry governor if the reporter is allowed to pull out a gun?
Without knowing for certain, Im going to assume any place Gov Abbott may be available to the press will have firearm restrictions signage posted. You know, to keep him safe from his own policies. The signage answers the question that it is not allowed, so the question should be more, why is the reporter not allowed to pull out a gun? Why does the governor need protections from his own policies?
