The difference is between State Criminal penalties & Federal Civil penalties. Under the Texas Penal Code, LTC holders must be afforded the opportunity to immediately leave the secure area of the airport to avoid being charged of a State offense. If a person doesn’t have an LTC (or a person with ...

Yeah, not a coordinated attack so much as a "Made Up" event... Church volunteer arrested for making a false report. Seems to have been lots of angst & gnashing of teeth, wasted resources, & an embarrassment. There are LOTS of Church Safety programs out there that are doing wonderfu...

Image is one guys thoughts about what is going on. Much of what you post can be helpful, but honestly the continued re-postings of fringe screenshots & links discredit the things that are of value. Please reconsider what you post on here. I'm sure there's other venues & forums that are more...
