Scott,
Good thought provoking thread. Folks will be lining up on both sides of this issue.
Personally, I would prefer to carry unfettered without CCW/CHL and did for many years. Unfortunately, that act has expensive legal implications in the state of Texas.
I guess that I have given in a little (or a lot) by “being authorized by the state” to carry legally. I don’t like it but that’s the next best thing until proper legislation changes the existing laws.
I take my civic duties seriously and promote RKBA financially and morally. I also take every opportunity to make sure that I do not support the antis.
As I started collecting class 3 stuff back in the early 70’s, my personal data has long been established with the authorities.
Just my 2 cents worth.
