A flare gun can also signal distress or need for help . I think in a life threatening scenario being sued would be about last on my list of worrys . burning someone and pissing them off ? you really have not been in a life threating situation have you . There is no time it all happens quickly and in a matter of seconds it is over . I have been and you might just be thankful for a flare gun in the glove box , and you may not have time to get to it .<BR/>it is probly better that you get a big stick or bat you really do not sound like a person who really understands the responsibility involved with a gun of any kind !Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-1623220842705545902009-01-20T16:16:00.000-06:002009-01-20T16:16:00.000-06:00The Question was about carrying a loaded firearm i...The Question was about carrying a loaded firearm in a car not about a flare gun if i just wanted to piss someone off and burn them i would i wanted to know about my legal rights without a chl.

NOW , again for those of you who can not afford or have trouble getting a gun just go anywhere and for 16.oo dollars get you a perfectly effective flare gun .

In the state of Texas if you are legal to carry a handgun and have a clean background can you carry a pistol locked and loaded in your personal automobile without the worry of being arrestested? I would like to know as soon as possible due to living in a bad neighborhood.I fear for my spouse and myself because there is too many crazys and crackheads out there for me to feel comfortable and neither my wife or myself have our CHL but we own guns. Can someone please let me know if I am legal to do so?

I would be interested to hear both your take and an attorney's take on this interpretation of this new law:<BR/><BR/>Under the new law I as a citizen am under no direct or implied obligation to inform any law enforcement agent that I am carrying a firearm in my vehicle. Is that correct or incorrect? If you or any other police officer never know I have a firearm in my possession then the whole argument is moot. Unless of course you have some argument for probable cause to search my vehicle. <BR/><BR/>As for the CHL I am in agreement with a few other comments. The government has enough information on me it does not need more and certainly does not need to know I am armed. <BR/><BR/>As an officer does it bother you if a citizen does not disclose the presence of a firearm? <BR/><BR/>-SamAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-70366051245691501092007-08-31T11:08:00.000-05:002007-08-31T11:08:00.000-05:00As a Peace Officer and a CHL holder, I have no pro...As a Peace Officer and a CHL holder, I have no problem with the new law.
