We are now 25 years into CHL & what, 6 into LTC? It might seem a little soon to make any major changes, but ...srothstein wrote: ↑Fri Feb 19, 2021 12:24 pm While I can support that as an interim step, I can't get behind that proposal for a long term answer because there should not be any restrictions on anyone carrying anything anywhere in the state of Texas (well, in the US at all). If you allow any restrictions, even if just for untrained people, you are still allowing the government to restrict a right. If you give government an inch, they will take a mile. This proposal effectively tells government that they can restrict the right and you are just debating now how much to restrict it.
I would also be on board with Constitutional Carry & either grandfathering in all current LTC holders to the enhanced features of increased locations or a new separate enhanced license. Although, the new enhanced license idea sounds like it would cost quite a bit more money to implement and just saying the LTC is the enhanced license seems much easier and very little cost if any. I would also like to see the location restricted knife thing included in the newly no longer off limits places for an LTC holder in this scenario.
