Default Positive experience OC'ing w/LEO interaction

To start off - I think I broke a mirror somewhere and didn't notice it. My luck has been terrible recently.

While waiting at the red light a block shy of my workplace, I was rear-ended by a minivan. I wanted some record of the accident, so I requested that a police report be made out. I normally open carry on my way in to work - a tucked dress shirt doesn't conceal well. Considering my recent encounters with the PSP, I think I was more nervous about my Walther on my hip than shook up about the accident. However, both of the East Whiteland officers that responded to the scene were courteous, both noticed my weapon but made no mention of it. I think that the lady who hit me was too rattled by the whole thing to notice my weapon.

Time to call the insurance company. My poor Pontiac.......

I feel sorry that you were arrested for legally carrying your fi.... wait . did you just say? You mean they didn't assault, harass and arrest you? I would call Rendell and complain!

PS. Sorry about your car man.

WoW, I'd a figured they'da shot him on sight, I mean carrying a gun in the open like that, obviously a hardened criminal on a rampage.

Glad it went well for you

I'm glad to hear that you actually weren't harassed.

Being a woman of small stature, CC can get kinda difficult... lucky for me most people must not find me threatening because I've never been harassed much about OC. Usually I get the curiosity questions but nobody is really scared of me... ha!

What, you didnt get a severe case of road rage and shoot the woman who rear-ended you, the nosey gawker at the side of the road and the SWAT team that responded 30 minutes later?
