It's quoted above. Why would it matter? It's not a building or property.

Re: Citizens on Patrol, Community Watch Programs

I like that better than posting false 30.06 signs and perhaps having LEOs enforce them.
I am curious, however, what are the statistics around CHLs preventing crime vs being involved in it? I know that statistically in TX, CHLers are something like 14 times less likely to be involved in violet crime than the general population....

But is there any real data on CHLers helping to decrease crime over being involved in it somehow? If so, this might be data worth passing along... If it's just conjecture, then it's hard to make a case for those types of rules especially when so many people are afraid of gun violence so they fear guns.
