Montgomery County Constable issues with AZ CHL

[espy59lc]

That's why we don't live in California. Everything there cost more money anyways.

Which is why I'm ejecting from here as soon as possible.

Not compared to California:

Payment to county sheriff's office for application: $103
Payment to county sheriff's office for Live Scan: $95
Payment for instruction: $150
Total for new permit: $348

Renewal Fee: $25 -ish
Renewal training: $150
Total for renewal: $175

Also, CA licenses are only good for two years.

In case you ain't noticed, this ain't California. Ya'll have done it to yourselves - sorry to sound so cold-blooded, but ya'll have allowed the libs to inject themselves so deeply into your political fabric it ain't funny.

I'm not going to argue that, at all. Even though I don't vote for the libs and most of the northern and rural counties are definitely more conservative the coastal counties (SF, LA, etc) screw it up for everyone. Yet another reason why I'm moving to Texas. I was just pointing out that comparatively speaking, TX CHL fees are damn reasonable (and especially for me, since I'm a vet).

They would give a DA or a city or county an opinion.

No "stranglehold of bureaucracy" here. (Although that phrase would fit into my "dramatic flair" catagory)

Well I sure hope they do. I'd hate to hear of someone losing a bunch of money fighting this injustice. To quote one of my favorite police officers- it needs to be "Nipped in the bud."

"Stranglehold of (Federal) Bureaucracy" is the sub-title of a good book I read a couple of years ago and I find myself using the phrase from time to time.

Ok, in hope of getting this thing some more attention, I have sent letters to the following people explaining this situation, and asking for help.

Governor Rick Perry
Lt. Governor David Dewhurst
Senator John Cornyn
Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison
Congressman Ted Poe (my district)
State Senator Tommy Williams (my district)
State Representative Dan Huberty (my district)
Speaker of the Texas House Joe Straus

Does anyone remember who in the Texas legislature were the driving forces in getting the initial CHL legislation pushed through? If they are still in office, I would like to contact them also.

Thanks to All,

Thanks Dcav for your help. \/ \/ \/

Agreed with Acera, and have made it so.

Just got my AZ CCW packet in the mail. I may be joining this fight soon! Thanks to all who are spearheading this campaign! Good Work.

Just curious if there was any follow up or clarification with the constable.

 

[Acera]

No, no response to last email, and I did not feel like pushing the issue. Got a bunch of form letters back from our elected representatives, including one that seemed like is was personalized to my cause. Can't remember who sent it, but it was filled with resources that could assist financially strapped people in legal trouble, or with convictions. I think they misunderstood the purpose of the letter and thought I might be in deep legal poo already, LOL.

I get frustrated with Constables and Campus Cops. They aren't the sharpest LEO's in Texas. There are exceptions but this guy fit the mold of a very dull tack.

Very stereotypical, and not near fact based on my experience.

Just emailed to request my packet. Please keep us up to date if anyone else responds to your emails regarding this?
