After a trip to the bank for some cash I forgot my DL there, left it in the little drive through tube. During my grocery store trip later that evening I was carded for some Beer and when I went for my DL its not there, so out came the CHL. The lady just got a puzzled look and told me that she needed a DL. After asking why a CHL was not good enough for a few minutes she just looked disgusted and snidely said "well I'll just call the manager and see what he says". So another few minutes go by and the Manager shows up and askes what the problem is, she is just snotty as ever telling him how I handed her some gun license and how I don't have a DL. He just apologizes to me, Checks my D.O.B. on CHL(this was pointless since in order to get a CHL you must be 21), nicely informs this lady on how the CHL is a valid I.D., briefly explains to what a CHL is and how much more is invlolved with getting a CHL vs. a D.L.. So then she says "ohhh this is a license so you can own a gun?" the Manager and I both just look at each other and chuckle then he explains that this allows a person to carry a concealed handgun. Then the all time greatest sheeple question came out " so you don't have to have a license to own a gun?" a brief explanation of the Second Amendment and requirements to own a gun ensued. Then a few seconds of silence I see another light go off and another puzzled look quickly followed by another question " so this means you have a gun with you?" as a bonus I also briefly informed her of the Fifth Amendment and the fact that I have to tell no one except LEO as to the status of carrying. She was just as dumbfounded as earlier. All in all it was a great learning experience for one non-informed sheeple grocery clerk.
