Re: Where to Buy 9MM now?

This sign was up at the Academy in Sherman this morning: [ Image ] Not suprising. This buying spree has been going on for a lot longer than people (me included) initially thought. Guess I'll have to start making a run every other day. The Academy near me also has the same sign up. What is funny to ...

Re: I got Texas Back...Greg Abbott

I love Greg Abbott. I had the great pleasure of having him as the speaker of my private school graduation back in high school. To this day, the school still says he was the best speaker we have ever had. Spending the day with him was a real treat. If you go into his office, there is a wooden box and...

Re: What is the world becoming....

I'm all for legalizing marijuana. The war on drugs has been one big epic fail. Marijuana is not a drug anymore then alcohol is (they both change your mental state)but the difference would be that alcohol kills thousands a year vs 0 deaths form marijuana. If they want to use it let them who are we t...

Re: What is the world becoming....

My first thought was, wonder how long will it take to trickle down to underage kids? Alcohol sure has. It already has trickled down. The only difference now is that it's illegal for both adults and kids. Exactly! There is more underage marijuana use by teenager than there is alcohol consumption. St...

Re: Class Debate: Me vs. Liberals

Snatchel, you are not at a certain red and black college up in the panhandle are you? Sam sounds an awful lot like the ninnies I have to sit in class with everyday. I finally decided to stop arguing with the morons since they never seem to have enough brain to learn anything that isn't dripping in l...

Re: What is it about "ILLEGAL" they don't understand?

Being able to identify something as illegal assumes a person has a moral compass. Sadly morality and honesty is ending in America and being replaces with " racist or non-racist" and moral relativity. According to today's standard of moral relativity it would be wrong and racist to ask some...

Re: Obama backs new Arms Trade Treaty

This may be a little off topic but related nonetheless. I was in my local gun shop today. I had been telling myself I was going to go get a new 9mm subcompact to carry. I started looking for the gun online and about could not find it in stock anywhere so I stopped by a local shop here. The guy that ...

Re: Good job, Mr. VP!

The old man seems a little senile to me. Biden reminds me of my grandfather in the beginning stages of Alzheimer. I hope they lock him in a closet or send him on an extended vacation like they have the last 3 years. God help us if Biden ever has to take over office.

Re: Help us all

The count here in Texas was too close for comfort. There is speculation that we could be a swing state by the next election. I get so annoyed when people keep telling all their friends to move to Texas. We aren't going to be Texas anymore if half of CA and the North move down here. They already scre...

If you are stuck in the waiting room going on 7 week....

Give the DPS a call. I just called them and despite the fact they said they had received my documents weeks ago, they now show no documents on file. :banghead: So annoying! Now I have to go through the whole waiting thing all over again because I really was never in line to begin with. :cryin Maybe ...

Re: Keep Waiting or Given 'em a Call

Apparently I just got lucky and got put on the slow boat. Called the DPS (I was only on hold 5 mins!) and they said all my info was sitting there it just hadn't gotten entered yet. They told me to wait another week and it should be entered and start showing up online. Hooray for getting put on the s...

Re: Keep Waiting or Given 'em a Call

I've tried looking around to see if the required documents can be indeed processed via e-mail, but I have not been able to find someone who has done this successfully. I spoke with my instructor and he was under the impression that DPS would only accept paper, especially the CHL-100 form which requ...

Re: On the clock!

The DPS site is not always up to date. If you don't see your stuff showing up it doesn't necessarily mean they don't have it. I know it's hard, but what I did was just forgot about it for a while and checked about once a week. A watched pot never boils ;-) Yeah, true. But nothing has shown up and i...

Re: Keep Waiting or Given 'em a Call

I would give them a call. 4 weeks seems long to not even be showing received, especially if it was done on-line where you have no proof of receipt (like when mailing certified). I did get a generic auto reply that the email I submitted was received; but, after that I never heard anything. Well...gu...
