7. Take a look at the law
Edited on Mon Feb-19-07 03:56 PM by Hangingon
Texas CHL prohibits carrying concealed weapons in a place serving alcohol. A report to the bartender/bouncer is the proper approach (I expect most reputable public houses would stop problems anyway). I am more concerned about the belligerent drunk who follows you outside the bar and attempts to pull you out of your car. The law does address this. I am not concerned about simple trespass. Someone coming onto my property with hostile intent - i.e armed and threatening - is my worry. The Texas proposal addresses this too. I think the most important aspect of the new proposal is the protection of the citizen who protects his family in a reasonable manor from an overzealous prosecutor out to pick up some political notches.
