One reason for this would be that your CHL is covered under reciprocity in other states as my Utah CCW is supported under Texas law. Do you think that if I was stopped or detained in Texas and when they would run my Minnesota DL and I'm holding a Utah CCW that it would show "flagged". I don't think so.

Good point. Also, in most other states different agencies issue DLs and CCWs.

What good would that do? It makes as much sense as putting someones religion on the DL.

Remember that people with no training, no background check and no license can legally carry A GUN in their car in Texas.

Maybe we should stamp a big red CRIMINAL across the ID and DL of convicted criminals. That would do more to improve officer safety than flagging some of the people who passed a background check. As an added bonus, other people who see the CRIMINAL on the license would be able to take appropriate measures for their own safety.

It's nice to protect big strong police men but it's also nice to protect little old ladies.

Thanks for all the input on these subjects guys. I realize that they may seem tripe to some of ya'll, but now I know the REAL answeres to these questions. Thanks again.

Boomerang, you have issues with keeping your feelings all bottled up inside. You need to learn to tell us how you really feel.
