This is their way of controlling the Force as much as possible. Many CPD Coppers see right thru this facade, but many, especially the newer college educated Whiz-Kids, just follow the Regime's Agenda, Hook, Line, and Sinker, instead of proudly following the U.S. Constitution, they follow corrupt Leaders unConstitutional City Ordinances. Now that those have been officially ruled unConstitutional, predictably the City will still try to get its Officers to do their Socialist Dirty Work, then leave the Officer hanging out to dry when the charges and Lawsuits hit them. Chicago is run like the Kremlin in Moscow was, although just in more of a stealth manner. Hopefully their Regime will be curtailed soon, but since the Political Leaders pay off Lawsuits against them with Taxpayer Dollars instead of their own, it is doubtful, until one of them is actually jailed by a non-corrupt Crook-County or Federal Judge, for abuses and violation of the U.S. Constitution, if a non-corrupt Crook County Judge can even be found anymore in little Moscow by the Lake.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19929098.post-77804322056864702772013-07-25T21:48:46.636-07:002013-07-25T21:48:46.636-07:00Paul
I hope your friends in Chicago would look at...Paul<br /><br />I hope your friends in Chicago would look at the statistical database maintained by the Texas Department of Public Safety on Texas Concealed Handgun License (CHL) holders. It is updated annually by law, and is available at the Texas DPS website.<br /><br />The database shows all suspensions and revocations of CHL holders, and then runs through every offense listed in the Texas Penal Code, indicating CHL holders who have been convicted for each specified offense; it also compares them to the Texas general population who have been convicted of the same offense. Only a tiny few of 530,000+ license holders ever commit a revokeable offense- Felony,Class A,or Class B misdemeanor or disorderly conduct.<br /><br />This is not blowing smoke- Texas CHL holders are VERY law-abiding, and we have the official statistics to prove it. In fact, as part of a paper I am writing, I compared offenses committed by CHL holders with those committed Texas Commissioned Peace Officers ( and Federal officers in Texas ) - CHL holders are statistically even more law-abiding than the cops.<br />Texas peace officers do not fear CHL holders and almost all welcome their being armed.<br /><br />Anecdote-<br /><br /> About 3 weeks ago, one of my CHL Renewal students was stopped while driving in Plano. As required by statute, he handed the officer his CHL along with his driver license.<br /><br />She asked the standard question:<br /> "are you carrying tonight?"<br /><br />He replied:"No, not tonight".<br /><br />The Plano officer responded with a 5 minute lecture on why he should always carry, finishing with the admonition "don't leave home unarmed."<br /><br />She then wrote him a warning for a tailight and discharged him from the scene.<br /><br />I hope Illinois officers generally, and Chicago officers specifically, can overcome the mindset of "gun equals bad guy".<br />Sadly , this requires the use of mature judgement and command emphasis on treating law-abiding citizens appropriately.<br /><br />The other equally troubling mindset " only a badge conveys the right of having a sidearm" is no doubt also present. The only thing to do is to emphasize to officers ( and again, command emphasis and formal training will help) that citizens have Constitutional rights to arms as well. Cops are Constitutional officers, not superior beings.<br /><br />They might confer with colleagues in Texas.<br /><br />Regards<br />GKTGreg Tagnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19929098.post-53710331756035289332013-07-25T21:06:59.622-07:002013-07-25T21:06:59.622-07:00Paul, you have so many interesting Chicago stories...Paul, you have so many interesting Chicago stories to tell, please write a book.

Thr material has been embargoed from export in India and is difficult to find in the USA. Additionally it's almost impossible to Since stagg large enough to make the Secret Service model grip seen here. By the was I personally designed the Secret Service grip that's been copied by nearly every grip maker in the world. I would sell that pair pictured for $800.00 is someone wanted them at that price.
