If you're armed when the peace officer demands ID, you're required to display both, but now it has the same penalty as DPS not issuing CHL plastic within the mandated time limit. :evil2:
Oh, I absolutely understand that the penalty has been removed for not displaying my CHL, but like the MPA, I and neither does anyone else require a CHL to be carrying at or in their home and my ID might be sitting on my nightstand and not on my person.
The law that states that we must show both ID and CHL if armed when asked for ID does not make any distinction about the circumstances of our being armed. CHL, MPA, or in our own home or business. None of that matters. If we have a CHL and we are armed and asked for ID we must show both ID and CHL.
