    Default Neutral "encounter"

    I had to pick up a vehicle from a police impound yard today. I was waiting for an officer to bring keys so I decided to strike up a convo with the detective that was with me. He was ocing a sub compact glock

    Me - if you don't mind me asking, why do you carry a sub compact versus a full size?
    Det - it's less bulky and I'm normally wearing a jacket.
    Me - So it's personal preference?
    Det - Yea, I spend most of my time at a desk so its more comfortable when sitting.
    Me - That makes sense.

    I could tell he was caught off guard when I asked, but he was cool. Then the keys showed up and I loaded the car and went about my day.

    That's Bull Sh*t. I would have got his badge number and immediately filed a complaint with his superior. Don't stand for that kind of behavior!!


    Did you contact a lawyer yet?

    I might have played things out a little different...

    LOL

    Hey, since the cop was open carrying and you weren't, shouldn't he be posting his encounter with you?

    Don't talk to the police! Geez, you'd think people would know this by now.
    Rules are written in the stone,
    Break the rules and you get no bones,
    all you get is ridicule, laughter,
    and a trip to the house of pain.
