When my father was in his early 20's he was the manager of a couple of McDonald's out west. One day he stopped by for some various business and wanted to grab a small bite before going home. As the employee protocol asked he stood in line like other customers even though his meal would be...
to the LEO if he ask for it? I got stopped for a minor traffic violation a few years ago. I pulled out my Drivers License and when I did the officer saw my Carry permit. Automatically he drew his weapon and asked me if I had a weapon in the car. I told him yes, he instructed me too unload and...

At an Indiana Bank - which will remain nameless - I've noticed a "security gurad" armed with, I kid you not, a Browning Buckmark. In full uniform, on duty, cheesey Uncle Mike's nylon holster to match. Yep, a .22.
