Re: Poll: Reasons you have not gotten a CHL?

The permits with reciprocity I have from out of state don't start expiring until 2012 :)
That, and I'm holding off until we can get the law requiring the collection of SSNs for licenses revoked. Whichever comes first.

Re: Open Carry.Org Targets Texas

Exactly. Licensing Open-Carry would be a disaster. Every time somebody openly carried a handgun,they would be stopped,disarmed,and "checked' for license. No thanks-I'll take mine without a licensing requirement or not at all. JL A little late for this particular comment, but no one else seems ...

Re: DPS & SSN Use

Well, actually it is. Collection and use of a social security number is carefully controlled. Remember why they took the SSN off the front of the driver's licenses to begin with? And how most state DMVs started forcing you to give it them (REAL ID compliance)? Despite a rash of high-profile identity...

Re: DPS & SSN Use

DPS told me precisely that late last week. Trust me, this is a total oddity coming from Georgia: Law Enforcement giving me a straight, unambiguous answer that "errs" on the side of keeping its citizens armed. Thankfully, that gives me a few years to work on this SSN requirement in Texas so...

Re: New to forum

This is my second day here, and I figured I'd piggy back on an existing intro thread to avoid cluttering up the forum with the "Hi I'm new" stuff. I've been stunned over the past two days looking for serious information via the board, as it doesn't seem like many people have asked the ques...

Re: DPS & SSN Use

So, no online applications then, since SSN is marked as a required field: *An applicant must provide the applicant's Social Security number. This information is required to assist in the administration of laws relating to child support enforcement, as required and authorized by Family Code, §231.302...

Re: Getting non-resident permits from other states

(Sorry for digging up old posts, people, but it just proves I'm reading before I start asking questions!) Collect'em all, they're like baseball cards!!! IMHO, pursuing another course of action, the old plan B, is much better than annoying the DPS office and *COUGH* whining about the length of time i...

DPS & SSN Use

Howdy. I'll be moving from Georgia soon, where I have a carry permit (in addition to a Utah non resident permit.) Has there been any effort within the Texas CHL community to either resist or dispute the requirement that an SSN be used in the application process? It's a little embarrassing that the l...
