The event is now an ...

Re: Is Houston getting more violent

This is such a timely topic. Up until yesterday my wife was somewhat negative about my carrying. That changed. She ws with our daughter at Davids Bridal on 1960 and 45 picking up a dress. She noticed a woman in scrubs and a surgical gown come in and look around, go towards the back and leave. As my ...

Re: [Pre-paid legal service] vs CHL Protection Plan

I stand corrected. The CHL holder figure as of Dec 31, 2010 stands at 461,724. For those that are interested in the figures you can find a lot of stats on the Texas state CHL site.
