"Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. Such laws only make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assassins; they serve to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man."

The State of Texas has adopted legislation that allows it's law abiding citizens to carry concealed handguns for self protection.

To obtain a Concealed Handgun License in the State of Texas you must complete the 10 hour course, qualify with a handgun at a DPS certified range, and pass a 50 question exam. A student must then apply to the state and pay the current fees and undergo a complete background check for the state to issue a license.
