You are wrong, as we, CHL holders do have more rights/privileges than normal citizens. We get to carry guns concealed on our person while we go about our daily business. "normal" citizens (or non-chl holders) do not get to carry guns. Think about it in terms of a person with a drivers license, someone with a license can drive a car, someone without one cannot drive a car (legally).O6nop wrote:I can't imagine that, first thing you know, people will be screaming about their rights being violated because certain people are getting more privileges. This is what CHLers would or should do. If offered that special privilege we should turn it down. After all, we really don't want more privileges or rights than any other citizen. Otherwise, I'd think we were hypocritical. If we don't have to go through the detectors nobody should.They could make it easy and just approach a DPS officer out in front of the detectors, state you are a CHL and carrying. They would ask to validate your ID, and then allow you to walk around the detector. As far as anyone non-CHL seeing it, they could just assume you are a VIP that gets special treatment. I doubt anyone who is not familiar with CHL's would ever figure it out.
If we want anti's to acknowledge our rights, we should be sure to acknowledge theirs.
Actually, what I'm saying is we should be fighting tooth and nail to prevent the ridiculous idea of metal detectors, not already conceding to it.
Am I wrong?
I am not saying we are better, but we are licensed to do something that others are not, like doctors practice medicine, attorneys practice law, and so on.
