call me runaround sue
Well I went to apply for my AFL today , went to the Thurston co, sheriffs office , the guy on the desk looked at my application and said you can throw that away , you dont need that , just fill out this .. and he handed me a CPL application
I asked him , "dont I need an AFL before I can apply for a concealed carry permit ?" he said "oh... uh.... yeah but we dont do those , youll have to go to the state patrol for that , they have a criminal records dept." I asked him if he was sure , to which he replied " ya know we have a civilian that does fingerprinting , hes away till monday , he might know about it , but go see the state patrol they will sort you out "
So off I trot to the state patrol , a very nice lady there said "No we dont do these , the sheriffs dept or local police do them , let me call Lacey PD" a few moments later, " I spoke to the lady at Lacey PD , if you can get there before 4 she will do it for you " I thanked her and headed back to Lacey .
Lacey PD asked me "so are you a resident of Lacey ?" I said " No I live the other side of Yelm" " then we cant do it , you are not in our jurisdiction you need to go to Yelm PD" I thanked her and headed back to Yelm.
By this time it was lunchtime and Yelm PD was deserted , so I waited .
After lunch I asked the lady on the desk , she said "I can fingerprint you tomorrow , but we dont deal with the DOL , other than that according to your address your outside of city limits , so you are out of our jurisdiction , that comes under county sheriffs dept. would you like the address ?"
SOOOOOO I guess I am going to wait till monday and go back to the Sheriffs Dept. and see if the "civilian fingerprint guy" is there and basicly keep making a noise till someone who knows what the hell they are doing takes notice ,:banghead:
