Do you have to step into a phone booth to put on your CHL sash?

If so, there are so few now with the preeminence of cell phones.

What's a body to do...?

Or, one could obtain a white baseball cap and with a magic marker write CHL on it in capital letters in a continuous circle yeah, yeah, that's it.

Or, have some magnetized signs with CHL printed on them and slap them on each side of your car.

Or, have CHL tattooed on your forehead, again, in large capital letters.

You're welcome.

Update: Holders of CHLs aren't LEOs.

Nor are they reserve police officers.

Nor are they mandated to step up to the plate (if you will) when things go awry - unless they're personally, immediately threatened or their loved ones or friends are. However , if when they step up and aren't identified as good guys they're subject to being thought of as bad guys - so by all means wear your cape or sash or tiara.

Or, just remember that a CHL isn't more than an O.K. to protect yourself or loved ones. If you go beyond that, good luck...you're not an LEO.

anygunanywhere,

Stop it - I'm laughing too hard for me ole ticker...

However, some of us seem to think a CHL provides more authority than it does...sigh.

LAYGO

You're laying down a bit of the old tongue in cheek, right?

If not, perhaps the laughter created by someone wearing a CHL sash could deescalate a lethal situation as both bad guys and good guys would drop their weapons to roll around on the ground holding their sides from incapacitating laughter.

An improvement on the sash idea would be to add a 10' whip antenna like device with an attached CHL badge banner. No one could miss it and it's good intention.

Hey, couldn't hurt...

There's a reason CHL badges are ridiculed...

Hang on now.

Black socks and sandals are a (repulsive) fashion statement for fat, middle age German men.

Ah, and throw in a few Slavic types too.

VOR,

I understood what you were saying.

It would be instructive for batman to read a print out of these pages...

Frankly, I think anyone loopy enough to pin on a CHL badge/holster for all to see - makes me wonder about his mental health.

We don't know that he has a CHL, but any bonehead can buy a CHL badge/holster and parade around...
