Re: Why is it such a PAIN to get a TX CHL?

It is a pain because it is a government run system. Bureaucratic Vogons, as Douglas Adams would say.

A good full service class and instructor helps a lot.

Of course, I'm one of those who has always had a bur under my saddle because I believe the state has no right to know whether I carry a concealed handgun or not, and no right to make me get permission from it to do so.

On the other had, at least they give me an option to carry within the law. If they didn't, I'd carry anyway and just not get caught unless I was forced to use it, and then I'd be grateful to be in jail instead of dead.

I prefer to abide by the law, so I got my CHL despite my belief that it is a requirement that violates my God given right to self defense.
