Man, what a night. I just got pulled over, and it was interesting. My tags were expired, that's what started it. I pulled into McDonald's, because that's where he lit me up. Parked, he came up behind me, and I opened my door. He said, "Stay in your car, sir." I said absolutely. He asked to see my license, I opened my wallet, showing it and my permit. Before I could say, "I do have a permit, and I am carrying," he asks, "Do you have a gun in the car, sir?" I say, "Yes, I have two of them, right there." "Step out of the car, sir, for my protection." "Of course." He says to his buddy, "He has two guns in the car!" His buddy holds me against the patrol car, and the officer at my car starts unloading my guns and throwing them on my roof. "Why do you have two guns?" he hollers. "Because if I'm in a position where I can't wear a holstered gun, I have one I can slip in my pocket." Fair enough. He says to the guy holding me, "He has a permit," and the guy relaxes a bit. Then we start talking, I tell him I used to work at a gunshop, and then things are all friendly and ok.
I've been stopped before, but never have I had my guns unloaded and tossed on my car roof before. Was that a little over the top, or have I just been lucky?
