Report on Qualifying Day: Scotti and I had a great day yesterday. It was FULL! Between the extensive classroom instruction, going to the range and completing the certification, we learned a lot. We used a Glock .45 mm at the range to qualify. I liked the gun; it had a nice feel and was pretty smooth. I had 3 in the “7″ ring, 5 in the “8″ ring and everything else was 9, 10, or X. After we qualified, we also did some rapid fire, just for the experience. The weather was beautiful, the instructor was GREAT, and overall it was a perfect day….except…. how ironic — that our CHL qualifying day was occurring while the shooting in Arizona occurred. Rested heavy on me all evening. Anyway, thanks to those of you who have stayed in touch and I look forward to more good discussion. Bill.

I don't buy it; it's damage control in the face of very bad PR. I think he's trying to save his job and reputation.

I hope I'm wrong, but I've seen plenty of witnesses change their stories when caught in a lie.

I personally do not care what his reasoning is. On the face of it, it appears to be a victory for RKBA advocates in Texas. And that is what the public will see if they notice in the first place.

Damage control.....

Surely the President of a college that has a premier law enforecement academy and an excellent firearm instruction facility with instructors has had the prior opportunity to handle and shoot firearms during his tenure there.
