In Texas, it comes with your driver's license

Ah. Texas. I like how you do a lot of things there.

Reason #568 why I want to move to Texas.

I have to say that I'm kinda glad that I live in PA, where it's really simple to get a CCW permit. I wouldn't mind it being a little harder, but it's damn near impossible for some of you guys to get permits in other states.

Yes its super easy, I remember filling out the application, asking if I was a habitual drunkard, or have any psychiatric problems. Really? So If I am coming in for a permit on my own free will why would I answer those questions to get denied?

I thought it came with your birth certificate.. I didn't know they made you wait that long.

Alright so now that we know, who are u guys going for in the Super Bowl this year? Seahawks or broncos!

The see hawks won? Grr. Hmm Broncs

I am rooting for the Broncos cuz everybody loves Peyton! But what a game that was? That pick at the end with the questionable officiating. I loved it when the umpire 129 fell into the dog pile and had to get med. attn. from the trainers.

I'm a KC fan.. so this sounds odd.

Broncos, Why? Cause hopefully Peyton will ride off into the sunset with a Lombardi Trophy and quit torching KC twice a year minimum.

I wanted the 49ers to win because my cousin plays for their drumlins and last year they got tickets to the Super Bowl.

We don't even issue them in Az
If you're over 21, not a felon, then it's legal to cc with no testing or permit of any sort.

We have to have a "good cause" in order to get a CCW license, 3 written good character references, and then have a sit down interview.

All this amounts to a very slim chance of getting approved.

Where I'm at they pretty much don't issue them at all. I called the sheriff's office to inquire about the process and the person on the phone actually laughed before transferring my call. Apparently only law enforcement, judges, high profile attorneys and "people who transport large sums of money and have been receiving threats" (drug dealers?) are granted CCW permits here.

Yea we just take a class, apply and get fingerprinted.

Depending on what part of NorCal you're in I can see this. "/ this state is too gun shy.

We just have to fill out the application and get fingerprinted. You give them your money, and then you wait until they get around to processing it.

 

[TransportJockey]

We take a class, shoot some rounds at a target, get fingerprinted and pay the state police some money. Easy as that

LA Co, practically have to be golfing buddies with the Sheriff to get a CCW permit :glare:

No matter how many times I have to do it. Giving CPR instructions to a family member for a loved one, and for an extended period of time, is incredibly draining.

It would be really nice if it actually worked once in while...

I think it wouldn't be draining if ROSC actually occurred. Unfortunatley I have never heard of dispatch giving instructions that were successful

 

[NomadicMedic]

It's worse when dispatch gives instructions, but it doesn't actually happen...

 

[unleashedfury]

Why do I find humor in this...

This latest case they sort of happened... The victim was in a rocking chair, and the caller couldn't move them, or even adjust the airway. They tried their best to attempt compressions, but they were pretty distraught, so they didn't do a lot from what I could gather.

They did get the pt back for around 20 minutes before they crashed again though. I had another one that made it into enduced hypothermia last year, but also eventually passed. For some weird reason I get overall better results with SCA's in more remote areas...
