The focal point for Texas firearms information and discussions

Yup. I told my friend that I knew some WAY better instructors if he'd like any references so he could retake the class and get correct information. I also referred him to this forum.Keith B wrote:I have heard several people quote things that [Pre-paid legal service] is apparently incorrectly telling them. One is that any 'No Gun's' sign is valid notification, and now this. I personally would not want to put my defense in the hands of someone who does not understand or interpret the laws well enough to know what's legal and what's not.

Horrible idea. I can see it going like this: walks around fair, turns head, weight of gun causes it come out from under hat, hits ground, people freak out or possibly goes off, etc...drjoker wrote: My advice is to just hide it in your boots, a small kel tec p3at or ruger lcp. Then, waltz on through without identifying yourself as a CHL. Or you can hide it inside your baseball cap, or... ankle holster or secret compartment in purse, etc. If you're really old, just tell 'em it's your implanted medical device.
Exactly! Everybody knows that if a gun falls onto the ground it will always discharge and kill someone!locke_n_load wrote:Horrible idea.

Always discharges in the movies! Just saying it is a very slight possibility. But I'm sure it would get some funny looks from the people around!Mel wrote:Exactly!

I hope this is supposed to be a joke, because that is the absolute worst approach ever.drjoker wrote:Most of the time, I just get waved through to the officer inside to check my CHL. However, about 20% of the time, I get a NAZI who will harass me on purpose by searching my bags and wanding me to search for a knife (really? why would I carry a knife when I've got a gun!), then they'd ask me to show them the gun (I told him that it is illegal to show the gun because it is a CONCEALED weapons law, so I'd yell politely for the officer to come back), and finally, the NAZIs love to lecture you about gun safety and ask you, "why do you need to bring a gun to the fair?" To which, I reply, "because it is my constitutional right and if you want less freedom, then please go to Cuba!"
If you get waved through to the officer inside, great! If they call an officer to you, instead, then you've got a NAZI.
One time, a NAZI was pawing through my possessions in my bag (illegal search without a warrant!), so I jacked with her and told her to be careful because I have a loaded gun inside the bag (I didn't, it was holstered IWB). Her eyes go wide as golf balls! Lol!

Yes, joke. Remember, my name is "drJOKER". Glad you "got it." I do apologize for those of you who didn't "get it."Crossfire wrote:I hope this is supposed to be a joke, because that is the absolute worst approach ever.drjoker wrote:Most of the time, I just get waved through to the officer inside to check my CHL.
