DANGER -- CAUTION NEEDED!!!

goldie : The Kingwood Division PIP meeting is held at 2901 Woodland Hills, on the 3rd Tuesday of the month, at 7:00 p.m. We went last month and they were talking about not leaving your gun in the car, and they gave out gun safes for the cars.

I promise you the person openly carrying is 99% the time NOT the person you need to worry about. Just the other day a woman on the trails passed a person and next thing you know she had a handgun in her face! Never saw the gun until it was too late. That's the person you need to be aware of. Also why my family no longer walks the trails.

Pov1989 : Thanks for your reply! I am sure this was very nerve racking. But, If he was not being aggressive or doing something wrong, he does actually have the right to open carry a weapon. I think this is a very stupid thing to do as if you want to protect yourself you should not let the world know you have a weapon. I mean really now, the guy who is open carrying is the one who will get shot first. They will take them out as quickly as possible. In Texas, you can open or conceal carry without a permit.

Maybe it's legal but it's also a good idea for the police to investigate it. There is room for both of these facts to be true.

cbear : you were right, a demon! Possibly a direct descendant of Satan himself

Often times i go take Boo for his walk when its still dark out...
I carry a concealed .4o that cannot be seen. I am too damn old to fight.Boo alerted a couple of times on some fool sleeping in the woods.

Pov1989 : Thank you. At the time my neighbor was approached by the officer that's all he told them, that this person was on the greenbelt(s).

I had that happen a few years ago in Woodland Hills. Two police asked us if we saw someone with a gun

All eyes open to concealed handgun carriers. I no longer live in Kingwood but if I did and held a license, I would purposely walk the greenbelts in the area. Some people need to be scared straight and learn a hard lesson. Walking around with a rifle? I mean, they're up to no good for sure.

Kemibe : Absolutely no good can come from this in that scenario. Rethink your thought.

I will say that years ago I saw 3 people by Chikfila and one of them had a long gun. They were speaking to a Chikfila employee. I'm guessing the conversation may have been about whether the person with the long gun could take his gun inside? I don't know- I was riding and I'm sure they didn't need a looky Lou. It does kind of throw a person, but I'm more used to it here in AZ. Lots of people carry when hiking- javelinas and rattlesnakes are prevalent. lol of course I do worry about ricochet shots- most people who carry probably don't practice enough.
Still while legal probably not the brightest idea

I live in Valley Ranch and when I walk around the pond I come across those who carry 🔫 and I actually feel safer knowing so. I myself carry when I feel I need to but you won't see mine since I conceal it.
I did a shoot don't shoot scenario with the Constables and I am proud of my quick reactions and how I handled the situation I was put in.
