Darn good story but I’m not buying it. I’ll bet she was carrying without a CCW and HAD TO say it was in the glove or she would have probably been arrested. Even in Texas.
2 & 4 year old? Those videos on YouTube showing young kids digging out guns from purses and concealed carry bags has had a major impact; it would not surprise me if a Mom with 2 young sons in the car keeps the gun in the glove compartment.
Don’t need a LTC to carry a weapon in your vehicle but it must be concealed and not on your person. If you can legally own a gun in Texas you can carry one in your vehicle.
. .depends entirely on what county your in... .out of 254 counties... .I’d wager that you would not even get arrested in 200 counties in a case like this.
Particularly for a woman.
In West Texas, no one involved including the Sheriff’ deputies would even THINK about arresting a woman for defending her kids, with or without a license. A West Texas jury would NEVER find her guilty. Hell, they would commission a statue for her in front of the county courthouse.
Now Austin... ..your going to jail !!
