An OC Guide to Protecting Your Rights: What to do when LEO stops you

[bmyers]

This is great info. Thanks!

This is great info. Thanks!

I second that, definitely a great read. I tend to be a talker, so my take away from this thread is to shut up!

This also may have been posted, I haven't taken the time to read through all of these, but it would make sense to me as long as you had your hands in plain view and immediately let the officer know you have a valid permit and have a weapon in the vehicle or on you. Be courteous and follow commands, you wont have any problems. Nothing personal, let them do their job and move on. It will make your encounter much easier!

 

[Timcor3]

ok, i just read many of these and not sure I understand the reasoning. Is it that big of a deal to comply and be on your way. If one has nothing to hide, why not. Put yourself in their shoes, you stop someone for a reason and they hand you some printed card with their rights on it and refuse to talk. Doesn't that seem "suspicious" ?

Prepare for the ****sorm. Just warning you.

The Court of Appeals seems to indicate that this should stop all further concern about the handgun.

NOT in this STICKY thread.
They (INGO members) want to argue about that they need to use one of the other threads or open a new one. This sticky is for the info only.

If you notice I have managed to keep the sticky clean of those debates.

 

[Timcor3]

I agree, just trying to pass helpful information along when encountering LEO while carrying. The officer just wants to do his job and ensure he goes home safe at night as well as you.

This^^^^^!

Yes, the key word here.... "SHOULD"!
Too bad that is NOT what normally happens!

I didn't say where the ****storm would occur, I just said there would be one...

I for one am thankful for all the info that is posted, I just wish the LEOs were always required to only give facts ( laws ) themselfs and not their personal thoughts of how they interpt what they are to inforce.

Ever heard of personal responsibility?

Schools teach capitalization as well and you can see how far that goes on the internet.

Wait, when did we stop capitalizing Internet? Nobody tells me anything.

Yeah, Obama sent out a notice last month. You're not on his mailing list?

I drive too fast, as a result, I get pulled over often. I always claim my firearm and carry status. If at night - I generally - put the dome light on. Often the officers appreciate this and offer me a more lenient ticket - or a warning.

Thanks for breaking the law and making all other gunowners look bad.
