Re: Perhaps a state issued LTC holster insignia is the answe

A badge would also suggest, to anti gun folks, that chl holders are "compensating" in yet another way.

First, it's assumed a gun is surrogate manhood, and, if we're gung-ho about badges, we'll be accused of being wanna-be cops.

I think being a policeman is a fine thing. I didn't take that career path and I would be trespassing on somebody else's honor to assume the trappings of law enforcement.

I'm American, that's enough, although readily available permits in a shall-issue context don't bother me. To those who say they are a slippery slope, I'd say that in Texas, that may be the case - in our favor. We've gone from 100+ years of repressive gun law to near-constitutional freedom.

Adding a scarlet letter, and now we're backsliding.

If you want a badge with your gun, great. You need to earn a position in a police department.
