The one in Highland Village has a small paper posted out of the way and certainly not prominently. That tells me "carry away".

I appreciate your support of the 2A.

That said, I'm curious why no guns at home? Any plans for protection against home invaders?

I have some guns stashed at the neighbors. My neighbor and I WILL be back to save my dog.

Some day, she may warm up to the idea of having a gun in the home. It may take a while like HD76's wife, but as long as she supports the 2nd A, her feelings will change some day.... It make take some time, that's all.

Not trying to be persnickety here, just curious. Your wife has a CHL but is not comfortable with weapons? Does she ever carry?

On another note about home invasions, there are plenty of them with people home that resulted in shootings, torture and brutal beatings. Many in "nice" neighborhoods. The statistical likelihood of any of us being involved in a violent crime are relatively small. Both I and my wife have exceeded that likelihood
by a factor of at least 300%.

My wife was not real active carrying since she quit working in a "bad" area. One condition red and she carries or has a weapon handy at all times. Thank God it only served as a wake up call.

There have been many incidents that have concerned my wife. She never thought we should not have guns nor was she opposed to carrying. There were times though when she would ask if I was "really" going to carry to x-y-z. The questions have long since ceased except a few months ago (condition yellow type scenario), she discreetly leaned over and asked, "you got it?" I nodded and she relaxed. She apparently hadn't even noticed I had it on even though we were bumping into each other getting dressed. It's just part of the apparel now.

I for one do not believe we should practice, breaking up. She is a GF for a reason (probably several). If the difference in opinion is not otherwise an incompatibility, then keep her, love her and let the shared heart and logic work its magic.
