SB 299 - Error on DPS Website

[locke_n_load]

Someone asked me about recent changes to the CHL laws last year, so I went to the DPS wesite and looked up changes here:
http://www.dps.texas.gov/RSD/CHL/Legal/ ... lation.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
But I noticed that for SB 299, they have the following posted:
Senate Bill 299
Effective: Sept. 1, 2013
Relating to the intentional display of a handgun by a person licensed to carry a concealed handgun.
This bill amends the Texas Penal Code by changing the language from “fail to conceal” to “unintentional display.”

The "unintentional" part didn't sound right to me, so after checking the bill text...
http://www.capitol.state.tx.us/tlodocs/ ... 00299F.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
"and intentionally displays the handgun in plain view of another person in a public place."

DPS also does not mention the addition of "force or" for a defense for displaying a handgun (pretty big deal).

Think I should inform them of both of these issues?

And it's disappointing to see that they haven't updated the CHL laws yet with the changes from last years session.

They know. I was in instructor renewal class in December and they know.

Well how long does it take to update some text on their website! Thanks for the heads up (I will not be sending anything to them now).

If they cared, fixing this should take less than five minutes.
If they cared, fixing the SSN error on the online application should take less than an hour, even for a junior programmer.

Agreed.
