I don't believe it has anything to do with the shorter classes because the problem existed prior to that change. I could be wrong, but it seems I remember DPS increasing the number of classes for CHL instructors a while back because of the huge demand for the classes. Perhaps the problem is with inexperienced instructors who only teach the occasional class and never bothered to properly learn the laws or don't keep up with the laws adequately. If so, hopefully the changes in the instructor requirements will weed some of these guys out.budroux2w wrote:Is it just me or has there been an uptick of "can i carry here" threads by new members?

Perhaps the well-funded Bloomberg organization is just doing a bit of opposition research? It wouldn't surprise me a bit if they signed up for a number of different usernames, lurked for a while, and even posted some inquisitive postings trying to get a feel for how we respond? What better way to find any and all so-called 'loopholes' (as they may call them) in the law?
Yeah, it's a stretch, but it is a learning from Sun Tsu...keep your friends close, and your enemies closer. As distasteful as it is, I log into the Daily KOS, Huffington Post, etc. on a regular basis so I can see how the enemy thinks.
And yes, I did use the 'E' word to describe them.
