That's right. Employees only by law. I wonder if any companies will start using more contractors because of it.sugar land dave wrote:I am not following what you mean by the highlighted portion of your post. Are you talking about the Employee Parking Lot Bill? That would only apply to employees not contractors, visitors, or salesmen.
Going back to the original question for a moment, there's no requirement to show your CHL if you're not armed. It may be a good idea, like turning on the interior light at night, but it's not required.
I believe the basic political division in this country is not between liberals and conservatives but between those who believe that they should have a say in the personal lives of strangers and those who do not.

That's a lot of pulling over - might want to check your driving habits.JP171 wrote:I've had the thing go both ways, been stopped and given the DL and CHL and been asked if I am carrying and said no and then been chewed for giving it when I am not carrying, then on another occaison been chewed for not giving the CHL even though I am not carrying, also been chewed for not carrying at all, so it really depends on the LEO and how he/she feels about the subject
Re: CHL but not armed
Not necessarily. I get pulled over a lot and am not doing anything wrong. They are profiling cars as well.AlaskanInTexas wrote:That's a lot of pulling over - might want to check your driving habits.JP171 wrote:I've had the thing go both ways, been stopped and given the DL and CHL and been asked if I am carrying and said no and then been chewed for giving it when I am not carrying, then on another occaison been chewed for not giving the CHL even though I am not carrying, also been chewed for not carrying at all, so it really depends on the LEO and how he/she feels about the subject

How does that make the stop less stressful?doc.lonestar wrote:If you are a chl holder and not carrying then no issue - BUT let me ask this - is there a reason not to let leo know from the begining?
Once they go to run your DL they will know you have a CHL - then there is going to be the question raised of why you didnt just notify. Anything I can do to make leo life less strefull I figure why not.
