Husband and wife send in applications SAME DAY and one gets PIN in ONE WEEK and the other still waiting after a month. And it appears no one is receiving a licence in 60 Days as advertized is the goal. I see people on this forum still waiting after 4-5 months!!!It is obvious that this is an example of beaurocratic red tape gone totally astray. We are not being served adequately by our goverment.
My question is - Does anyone have any ideas on how we can effectively demonstrate against the way our state goverment is serving us. The only thing that comes to mind for me is to write a letter to the Austin American Statesmen Editorial Section with the slight hope that it might publish the letter. The other thing I personally am going to do is to find out who my State Represenative is (I think it's Patrick Rose) and write him a letter. This system is evidently brocken and I would like to solicit other's opinions on how we might take steps to complain. This "Waiting Room" is kinda cool because without it it would be very difficult to see what a problem this area of our State's DPS has.
Like I said - I'm going to do the two things I mentioned above. Might I suggest that other's help the cause for other Texas gun owners by doing the same and let's brainstorm other measures we might take to publicize the problem! Any ideas anyone?
I sugest just wait it out. Like some other stated Austin is a very libral city. Also sending a letter to the Statesmen about guns and hopeing they publish it???? Dude they back Obama.. Who is very anti gun. The Statesmen is libral don't think they will be sympathetic to your cause.
