      If you are carrying in Indy and in downtown, read this

      Stumbled on this just now, I didnt see it posted anywhere else so ill post it up. Looks like they are giving IMPD the go ahead to "aggressively" seek out "illegal guns" being carried downtown. Police bear down on guns Downtown | The Indianapolis Star | indystar.com

      Police Situation a Few Years Back; What Should I Have Done?

      When I was in my late teens (approx six or so years ago), I went to my city's annual fireworks display at Washington Park in Michigan City. The city at this time had an issue in the summer with huge groups of people congregating on one of the largest streets in the city, a street I live just off...

      How do you deal with the police when stopped while CCing?

      Hey guys I was wondering what do you say and do when stopped by an officer in the street (on foot) while carrying. Do you say that you are carrying right away? What if the officer asks you if you have any dangerous weapons on you for his/her own safety? I just dont feel that saying "I have a...

      Positive Experience with Tippecanoe Sheriff's Office

      So I was driving home tonight, from the shooting range actually, and I got pulled over by a Tippecanoe County Sheriff's Deputy. I was in a 55 zone and had been behind 2 vehicles that were making a point of doing 30 side by side and catching every light.. So when I got the opportunity I shot...

      Open Carrier properly exerts his rights, and gets away with it [video]

      This is a fine example of how to exert your rights in the face of government agents. Do not be bullied, and do not allow them to escalate the situation by consenting to requests that are not backed by any legal statute. Know your rights. It takes cajones to stand up for them. YouTube -...

      Johnson County at it again....

      Johnson County attempts to restrict and deny my rights.... Well, there really isn't a short version of this story so here it goes. The wife sent me out for lottery tickets, I went and got them along with a gallon of gas for the chainsaw. On my way back to her house a Johnson County Sheriffs...

      Pulled over... AGAIN -_-

      When we last left our hero... So I got pulled over again today, 465 southbound, around mile 44.6 or so. This guy? I was waiting for my ticket for 30 minutes. He walks to the window, I pull out my license and registration, he sees my gun on the passenger seat... "You got a gun in your...

      Bad Experience with Carmel PD

      No good deed goes unpunished, as the old saying goes. Here’s how things went down: I looked out my back window and saw that one of my neighbor’s dogs had gotten out of the fence around the yard. He has two of them, brothers, and they act decidedly unfriendly toward walkers and joggers...

      Last time I OC in LPD-land

      I don't like to complain too much about things, but this just got me fired up. I was at the Crystal Flash on Oaklandon and Pendleton Pike last Monday. Been going there for three years just about everyday, I know all the employees on name basis and they know me and what I do for a living and they...

      Stopped by Terre Haute PD for OC'ing -- On a Date!

      I was on a date on Thursday night, during which I OC'd at Carosi's Italian Restaurant, Fairbanks Park, and the AMC-12 theatre -- all in Terre Haute. I got the distinct impression that OC is not permitted in Terre Haute parks because, while listening to a free live concert at Fairbanks Park, I...

      Pulled over -_-

      Got pulled over this morning. Bleh. A motorcycle was riding up on me really fast, so I sped up to move over. Of course, the officer only saw me, so ere I am with my shiny new ticket I let him know I've got a gun on my right hip, since I need to reach for my license. He asks me to take it out...

      Something interesting happened to a friend and I wanted to see if anyone has an answer to this...during a speeding traffic stop when my friend provided his driver's license, the IN state police patrol officer asked my friend if he had a handgun in his car. He did and provided his lifetime CC...

      Saint John Indiana, NOT gun friendly

      I don't want to say too much until after I file a complaint with the chief, but I am :xmad::xmad::xmad: My wife and I were on the wrong end of a "man with a gun" call. The only plus is that neither my wife nor I were proned out, but we were berated for about 15 minutes this evening. I'll be...

      My on-duty encounter with an OC'er

      I don't think they guy is a member here, otherwise he would have posted about it. The other night I was on-duty, about 11pm or so. I see a 4-wheeler being driven down a city street. Not a side street or back alley, but one of the main thoroughfares on my district that has a lot of semi...
