Taking yourself out of Texas, and the Texas consequences of carrying where you are not "permitted".....
If I lived in WI, and the law treated violations of a gunbuster sign with a $200 fine and no loss of privileges, I would carry ALL THE TIME. If I got fined once every 4 years, it would still be cheaper than the cost of a Texas permit.
WI permit cost: $50
WI Training requirement: Hunter safety course, etc, etc, or a CCW issued from another state.
Am I missing something?
If Texas law treated this violation like a speeding ticket (or less), would you be more inclined to test your luck?
Do you ALWAYS drive under the speed limit?
