It is my opinion that we are as close as the number of voices that are raised. We need a massive CHL voice but more so we need school officials, LEOs, Legislators and most importantly the parents of children in school. There is nothing that cannot be done for the positive if we are willing to stir the pot long enough to educate those who need to be educated.

It is my opinion that Texas needs a "Marion Hammer" type personality to embody easing the restrictions on school carry as well as getting the courthouse carry problem fixed and other things. Where is S.G. Hupp and can she be effective with the average Joe as well as the powers that be? We need a voice that unites CHLs with others so that the average CHL holder can work with the masses in standing up for this needed change. That way, I would feel better about openly supporting it without everyone knowing I am a CHL holder. I could be looked upon as just another supporter of safer schools and all.

I cannot expect a special session to be called so, that gives us some time to organize and educate. Again, this average nobody asks those with the connections to do all the leg work while I can only lend my voice. Thanks to all those that have, do, and will do the work that allows our voices to be heard.
