If I am understanding this correcty, HPD is coming to your complex to provide a service, BUT this is by invitation....or "acceptance" of an offer. I would think....that is no wise...does that make them in "Authority of the premises". They are in fact.......guests.

If they can get away with requesting all CHL's to surrender their weapons in this setting....then what is to prevent them from walking into the nearest restaurant and doing the same thing?

The provisions by which LEO are allowed to disarm are as follows:

§ 411.207. AUTHORITY OF PEACE OFFICER TO DISARM.

(a) A
peace officer who is acting in the lawful discharge of the officer's
official duties may disarm a license holder at any time the officer
reasonably believes it is necessary for the protection of the
license holder, officer, or another individual. The peace officer
shall return the handgun to the license holder before discharging
the license holder from the scene if the officer determines that the
license holder is not a threat to the officer, license holder, or
another individual and if the license holder has not violated any
provision of this subchapter or committed any other violation that
results in the arrest of the license holder.

Will someone please explain to me how any LEO would "reasonably" believe that a group of Senior Citizens (or individuals) that have gone through the CHL process, are law abiding citizens AND are there in support/co-operation of the police dept to learn how to better be safe....would be a threat!

This is laughable and the person who alluded to the "attitude" that some police have for being "the only person present with a gun" hit it right on the head.

No way in Hades would I let this slide. This will continue to worsen unless challenged.
