Something I'd like to add here, specifically addressing Paul's post. Niterider (who has a CHL) recognized that there are times that he must leave his firearm in his vehicle. This occurs often with CHL holders, and is routine for non-CHL holders who carry. Mike bought a safe and attached it to his vehicle, so he can secure his firearm when circumstances dictate that he leave it in the car. We might all benefit from his wisdom. With a safe in the cab, nobody sees you putting it in the trunk, and most vehicle burglars won't stay in a vehicle long enough to defeat a safe. Great insurance, and a whole lot cheaper than replacing a gun. Obviously, bags -- even hard bags -- on a bike aren't very secure. But a safe bolted down to the deck in the cab or cable-locked to the seatframe in your car or truck, would require more time than most vehicle burglars are willing to spend to defeat. They also make vehicle-specific safes that mount out of sight in consoles and gloveboxes.

Get a safe for your vehicle, and put the serial number of your weapon in your cellular phone or wallet, so if it is stolen you can get it entered into TCIC/NCIC right away.

 I have actually seen some very creative write-ups on installing safes in the center consoles of some trucks.  I do like the cable idea as well.

I know a entire profession would be out of work if I got my way, but if we had a law in place stating that all laws on the books must be worded in such a way that a 5th grader can read and understand them, we would have no need to guess what the law really says. Only a lawyer would say (define IS), even if he was president at the time. I know the wording of the laws is just job security for lawyers but there is no need for all the built in confusion.

Like this?:
Sec. 11.103.  DUTIES OF CLERK;  MISTAKEN FILING.  (a)  A clerk of a court may not file a litigation presented by a vexatious litigant subject to a prefiling order under Section 11.101 unless the litigant obtains an order from the local administrative judge permitting the filing.(b)  If the clerk mistakenly files a litigation without an order from the local administrative judge, any party may file with the clerk and serve on the plaintiff and the other parties to the suit a notice stating that the plaintiff is a vexatious litigant subject to a prefiling order under Section 11.101.  On the filing of the notice, the court shall immediately stay the litigation and shall dismiss the litigation unless the plaintiff, not later than the 10th day after the date the notice is filed, obtains an order from the local administrative judge under Section 11.102 permitting the filing of the litigation.(c)  If the local administrative judge issues an order permitting the filing of the litigation under Subsection (b), the litigation remains stayed and the defendant need not plead until the 10th day after the date the defendant is served with a copy of the order.

There is one tool that you have and it didn't come with your weapon or a CHL. That is common sense! If you use good sense and read the Penal Code you should have a good outline as to the use of force and deadly force and there applications.

And know where self defense ends and offense begins.
