Resister User ID: 669410 United States 08/18/2009 11:34 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | God bless Texas! We here in TN have had a huge increase in carry permit applications too. I am one of more than 250,000 here in TN with a carry permit. "God forbid we should ever be 20 years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, & always, well informed... If they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty... Let them take arms... What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. " - Thomas Jefferson in 1787 |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 526297 United States 08/18/2009 11:38 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | In Harris County (the Houston area) there is a backlog for close to a year to get a CHL. The backlog is (was) due to one person doing the background checks; the volume of requests; and CHL background check processing in Harris County being shut down due to Hurricane Rita from last year. |

Guess I'm too pessimistic about the potential for a ridiculous microstamp bill making its way through requiring everyone to turn in their current ammo. |

Quoting: Evil TwinCrime always goes down when more people start carrying. Did I mention crime, or crime rates, or stats related to the number of gun owners vs crime? No, simply said, "just what we need more bullets flying." |
