I'm new to CHL and just got my plastic this past Friday. I was a nervous wreck going out to eat with my family and doing some shopping. But after a while you get peace of mind knowing that little card and all the range visits, including the great training I received at the CHL course, I will be able to protect myself and my family if any situation arises if our lives are put in danger.
I have been a victim once too many times, working nights in Northeast Dallas getting a knife put to my neck and taking everything that I had worked for that night. I promised myself I would do everything to protect myself next time any crazy thug tries to do this again to me or my family. My sister an my mom have gotten their purses snatched in brought daylight, not once, not twice, but three times. They are now taking their CHL training.
My brothers neighbors got their door knocked down by punks with bandanas over their faces and held them with knife and bats on their floor while they ran sacked the house to get away with all their cash and some electronics. (Undocumented Immigrants) are afraid to open bank accounts of fear of INS or ICE finding them so they keep all cash hidden at their home. My brother could do nothing all he had was a remote in his hand a bag of chips in the other. He now owns 3 firearms.
Some people may think I don’t need to carry at all… but they have never fallen victim like my family has. I am happy with my decision.
