You know, you might think so, but if you look at everyone who is actually covered under LEOSA, you might be surprised. For example, it covers jail guards who have had no legal training, just how to run a prison. It covers military police who have no civil law training and have completely different rules of engagement. And, as has been pointed out, it covers out of state officers who don't know Texas law.

The last, though, is also a problem with recognizing CHLs from other states so I would not bring it up in a debate with the public too often.

Re: HB48: No renewal class required

I would like to see it the same as for retired peace officers. They do not need to take a class to continue to carry, but must pass a requal every two years in Texas (one year for federal carry under LEOSA).
