The article basically states that legal weapons would not be a problem and we should not worry about that causing a problem.
How are the security/deckhand employees going to determine what is/is not legal if a CHL holder has no obligation to prove it with identification?
Could we "assume" that any gun they find would have be presumed legal because they can't force anyone to prove otherwise?
Thanks,
Jason

That's how they make a living, take something totally simple and make a mess of it.Photoman wrote:txinvestigator wrote:No, you are only required by law to show your CHL to a Peace Officer or Magistrate when the PO or Magistrate demands that you ID yourself.jbirds1210 wrote:I did not think that we would not be able to carry,whew..that would stink...I am just wondering if we are obligated to show our license to someone "acting" in the position of law enforcement. I do not mean for that to sound negative, but do they require the same actions as licensed LE? Thanks.

Gee that's sad. That's just what lawyers do for the criminals.hirundo82 wrote:Yeah, it sounds like they are going to be giving these people the appearance of power without the legal authority to back it up. It sounds like a recipe for abuses to me. Hopefully they are trained well enough to prevent that.
