I already drafted a bill that would put CHL's on the same footing as LEO's except for carrying in bars and carrying while intoxicated. It's in the hands of a Texas Senator who is deciding if he will file it.

I just got off the phone with the local administrator of my daughter's Montessori school. During our discussion, I reminded her that the most dangerous thing I do with a weapon each day is because of her school's policies: I take my weapon out of a secure holster, hide it in my truck so I can go inside the building (in a location that has a history of smash-and-grab car theft from the parents' parking lot), and then re-holster only after returning to the truck, sitting down, and closing the door - so that nobody sees me. No matter how safely I handle it, the weapon is infinitely safer while NOT being handled than it is during handling!
