Thanks Steve and Texanjoker. BTW Steve, we need to work on a bill like the one the Gov. vetoed in 2011. I have a couple of items we need to address along the same lines.

I didn't think you could hold more than one commission at a time. Is that not the case?

I've noticed this trend also and none of them have had anything to do with CHLs interaction with a LEO. If it continues, we'll probably do something to limit the discussions to those that have some relevancy to CHL.

The Forum isn't going to become a place to evaluate/second guess/critique LEO actions throughout Texas, much less throughout the entire U.S.

The article includes a statement to the media by a neighbor who heard statements apparently made by both the officer and the subject that indicate there was a struggle and the subject was resisting something. Whether it was an arrest, frisk, search, is anyone's guess at this point.
