Re: Carry rules for non CHL citizens

I rarely ever have to do this but last week there were some obvious gang members at the gas station (I recognized the tattoos) that were seriously giving me the creeps and I was pretty much scared for my life. I also had my daughter with me so I felt like I didn't have a choice and needed to keep my weapon close just in case something happened. I basically got gas and got out of there as fast as I could but these questions were bothering me. What if I did have to use my weapon? Would I be in violation of the law? Thanks for clearing that up. I guess I could have gotten in trouble if I needed to defend my life. What if I left it in my glovebox or bag like usual and was able to grab and use it if needed? Would I still be in violation since I wasn't carrying it on my person?
Get your LTC. It's a really easy process in Texas and relatively fast as well. Invest a week or two in making sure that when you feel threatened and a need to carry you are at least legal. Your daughter deserves that investment.
