Re: GLBT Friendly CHL Classes in Austin

A-R wrote:I won't be teaching another class until late September at the earliest, but you're welcome in my class. Same rules as everyone else - be safe, be respectful, keep profanity and "adult" language to a minimum, and no discussion of political/religious topics in class beyond those directly related to CHL.

I also offer small group classes so if you'd feel more comfortable around like-minded individuals and would like to put together a group I'd be happy to teach your specific group as well.

I feel as RPB stated - your private life/choices are yours and no business of mine. Glad you are considering a CHL.

:tiphat:
:iagree:
That's a great idea.During the last Texas legislative session, I tried in vain talking to some University of Texas people who lived in fear of gay basher gangs with baseball bats and feared CHLs; But, I see no difference than a gang of thugs assaulting a weaker elderly, disabled or female person, or persons racially different to take advantage of them. The Second Amendment is about self protection/self defense, and certain items carried legally are great equalizers.
Regardless of any other differences, more CHLs = safer environment all around. It really should not be a Liberal v. Conservative issue, though in certain parts of the Country politics did get involved aligning with certain issues;
Self Defense ... it's about equalizing

Re: GLBT Friendly CHL Classes in Austin

more friendly
:headscratch :confused5
I took the chl class near Burnet/Bertram area, and such issues were not part of the course material, but everyone seemed friendly enough with everyone else. They are much more conservative than Austinites, so I'd assume all Austin CHL classes would be friendly, but weirder. :cool:
I don't recall what part of the course genetics and choices comes in.
Do you mean a course which advises/offers more carry/clothing/concealment advice etc?
A lot of that could be learned here in the forum, but the course itself covers certain required material mandated by the State, DPS, like a Driver's Education course.... so your question is similar to "Which Drivers Education course is more friendly... in covering the material required by State Law"
I'm none of the above mentioned, I fall into these latter categories ... In the class I took, they even treated disabled, elderly, mixed race, and even ugly (oops, I mean the less-visually appealing or beauty-challenged) people the same in covering the required material. (People have pointed and laughed at me for about 60-something years; glad I could amuse them...but I don't recall that occurring during the CHL class)
:headscratch

I personally don't care what your "other" choices or decisions you make in life are if we are in a theater and stuff starts happening with an active shooter and you got my back.

Glad you are getting a CHL.... good decision.
