Unilateral with Connecticut 5/4

I just noticed this on the DPS website.
May 4, 2005 Connecticut
Note: Effective immediately, Governor Perry has issued a proclamation that allows persons with permanent (plastic) concealed handgun licenses from Connecticut to legally carry in Texas. Connecticut permanent license holders will be required to follow Texas law while carrying in this state. Temporary (paper) Connecticut concealed handgun licenses are not recognized under this proclamation. This proclamation is unilateral and is not a reciprocal agreement. Texas concealed handgun license holders will not be allowed to carry in Connecticut.
It sure seems like we're being very generous with license holders from other states. (NM, IA, NV, CT) When are we going to get some love in return?

Why? The unilateral proclemation is required of him by state law if the other state meets our requirements. I have NO problem with this at all, but we do need to keep working to make it reciprocal.

But Perry is a moron. He can't even find his name on a race results sheet after a 10 miler (yeah, he beat me but not by much).

Actually, I think he pretty much beat me in all of the Distance Challenge races. 10k, 10 miler, 2x half marathon, 20k, 30k, Marathon. But he has his own run along support team (security detail). I did look and I couldn't figure out where they were packing, but I have to think belly band. I have to carry my water with me on my waist (also makes a great - if a bit slow - carry location).
