link is to the story about the two guys at a waffle house that OC and stop the robbery because the robbers didn't want to rob the place till they left.
This story confirms what criminals have said in interviews. They choose targets that will present the least resistance. There's no question that if those robbers had entered the store with guns blazing, they could have taken out the two armed good guys. But they almost certainly would have suffered casualties. So they chose to wait until the armed GGs left, so they could rob the place with less risk.

That happened in Wisconsin. We discussed it in
this thread.
The difference between that incident and the one linked in this thread is that the guy that was OCing in Wisconsin wasn't alert. He was in white when he should have been in yellow and then gone to orange and red (and maybe black.)

I spent 22 years in the AF and never gave up my TX driver's license, but I didn't have a CHL then, either.
You could have just done a change of address. DPS has (or at least had) no problem putting an out of state address on a TXDL.
You don't have to give up TX residency because of a PCS. You should have been able to keep your TX CHL as a TX resident.

Do you mean DL? FireForEffectK did keep his Texas CHL.

Correct...my apologies.
Unless something has changed, you can keep your original state of residence. I would do it in this instance, especially, just on the fact that TX does not pay income tax. KY does.

That's my understanding as well. You can keep your legal residence the same regardless of where you're stationed. DPS has no problems with out of state mailing address for students and military.
It looks like your Texas DL doesn't even expire if you're in the military and stationed outside Texas.

NO. That is not what the BG's say. All definitive evidences says that carrying concealed is more likely to put you in the BG;s sights.
Personally I think both have their uses.

Concealed means concealed.

Concealed means concealed.
Of course it does and is not relevant to this thread.
