Re: Bad plan: Carry under MPA, act as CHL, claim ignorance.

Dave2:

Tom Gresham has a radio talk show. In Dallas, it's on every Sunday night from 10PM-Midnight, on 660 AM, KSKY.
Since you are in Plano, that would work for you. Other forum members, elsewheare in the Lone Star:
Check your local listings if you are interested.

He also runs Guntalk TV, which produces a wealth of firearms-related videos.

Tom is from Louisiana and his shows are seen/heard nationally. He's going to have the NRA's Wayne LaPierre (sp?) on soon.

Since I don't have the right cable channels to see a lot of gun ads, Tom's show is one of the few places I can hear
lots of "gun talk" on the radio, and some gun ads in between the jabber. Check it out.

Bad plan: Carry under MPA, act as CHL, claim ignorance.

A few Sunday nights ago, Tom Gresham's "Gun Talk" program took a call from a man in Texas,
city/town unspecified.

He said "Everyone down here in Texas is getting their CHL's. But Texans have the ability to carry firearms in their
car under MPA (Motorist Protection Act, which allows vehicle carry, but is not as robust as the CHL), so why bother to
get a CHL?"

Unfortunately at that point I had to leave the truck, and missed the scenario that the caller was laying out.
But he apparently painted a picture of how he could carry the gun in his vehicle under MPA, then stretch his carrying of
the gun outside the vehicle. Then if the LEO's showed up, he'd claim ignorance and try to ride the MPA train out of trouble town.

Did anyone hear this show? If so, please fill in the details.

Tom Gresham was dumbfounded, and told the guy that he should just get his CHL, and not play fast and loose with MPA.

Comments welcome.
