Just want to say Hello
Hello,
I am new to the forums, and wanted to introduce myself.
I am a CHL holder, 4-H firearms instructor, help run a small on profit range here in Jasper (built for our 4-H, but we are now open to the public) , Texas and Southern Coordinator for 1 Million Moms Against Gun Control and I am an NRA member. I have 4 kids who I homeschool, 3 of which are old enough to compete in various shooting sports and do- constantly it seems. :)
I have been blessed to be able to introduce friends to guns who never thought they wanted to touch one, and get to teach children each week the proper way to handle a firearm and how to play the games. Not to mention, I spend my spare time working to inform people about our 2nd amendment. I couldn't ask for a better 'job'.
Anyway, I found this forum while doing research on our current bills in congress and am thrilled to find it. Its always great to be around like minded people. :)

I think responsible people should be able to carry anywhere.We are protecting ourselves.Ourselves are with us no matter where we are. I don't leave myself, or my vulnerability at the door because I pass the threshold of a certain establishment, I shouldn't have to leave my protection outside either.

Welcome. You sound like you are a great asset to our cause of preserving our freedoms.

Welcome to the Forum. We homeschooled all three of our children and that is a lot of work. Plus it sounds like you have a lot more irons in the fire.
It great to have you join the Forum.
