LEO not happy with me
Roper:
I had my first experience with a LEO today after I was pulled over for passing on I-80 in Lincoln, I missed that I was in a section with a solid white line.. Anyway the trooper came up to my car and I let him know that I was a permit holder and that I was carrying. He was very professional, asked for my permit, license, registration and the location of my weapon, which happened to be on in a comparment other than the glove box. He asked me to come to his vehicle. While in his car he asked when I took my training and who my instructor was, seemed more curious than anything. He said that he appreciated the fact that I told him that I was carrying and that he knew that I had a right to carry. He said that he has come across others who didn't disclose that they were carrying right away and that he wished they would just. I told him that I understood his concern and that is the duty of permit holders to immediately disclose to LEO's when officially contacted. Overall my experience with the trooper was very positive.

Wow Roper, I had a different experience saturday evening.
Got pulled over right where it switches to 65. My buddy has a CCW permit, I do not. My friend tells him he is carrying, and we both got patted down (he copped a feel on the boys), they ran the serial number and searched my truck, too. Real bunch of criminals he pulled over, an FFL dealer and a security alarm technician.
He asked if their were any other weapons in the truck, and I could not honestly tell him yes or no. He was not concerned with my pocket knife, just ran serial number on the gun. He tossed the truck for 5 minutes. I guess I am lucky he didn't take the seats out.
Mosin:
Hey, LitlRat
Did he ask of he could search you and the truck? Did he tell you why he wanted to search? Did he ask for your friends permit? I don't understand what gave him probable cause to even want to search? It was a traffic stop! Just my opinion he was being a d*ck. ;D What he did would make anybody feel like a criminal or you were at a rest stop. :o Oh, did you get a ticket?
FarmerRick:

NSP pulled my wife over for speeding some time back. She wasn't carrying but told the officer she had a ccw permit anyway. The officer asked her why she wasn't carrying and gave her a hard time about not being armed. In his own words he couldn't be there for every one and that she was her own best first line of defense. Wish they all felt that way.
