Considering how many times doing so has lead to positive conversations with people that were thinking of getting a gun for protection or applying for their LTC, I disagree.

I had one in particular that was a petite young woman who had just moved to the area and was concerned about living alone. It took her a minute to realize what my CHL (at the time) even was. When she did, she told me her situation and asked if I could wait a minute, as she was due for a break. I said sure, and she took her break and presented the flood of questions that most people who are new to guns have. Where to go, what to get, how to shop, ranges, holsters, laws, etc. I answered her questions and strongly encouraged her to pursue it and follow through. I never saw her again, but I made an impact on her. I left an impression on her of what progun people are like and the importance of taking responsibility for one's own safety. That conversation never would have happened if I had used my DL to buy a six pack of Shiner.

I served as an election clerk in Denton County on Tuesday. We were required to either attend training in person or take an on-line course which included chapter tests in order to serve.

If you have an LTC/CHL you needed a drivers license or ID to get it. What's the big deal?

Is there some kind of bragging right to using the LTC?
