Encounter with State Police and K9 Today WOW

Whether or not Trophyhunter did right.... the officers still violated his 4th amendment rights after they determined he was in lawful possession of the prescription medication. As far as actually being medicated while carrying - that depends on state law. For example in Washington, there is no law against carrying a firearm while under the influence of alcohol or lawfully possessed medication.

You are right on this statement, but?, Aggrivating LEO's is never smart, In all my years carring a firearm, I have never had any negative encounters with LEO's, just luck?, maybe, mannerism? more than likely, Here in NV, the law is, you must inform, How the OP handled this encounter was, In my opinion?, the correct way to handle it, filing a complaint on a LEO, for something like this, even if it sticks?, LEO's are a tight group, Can make life a little more taxing than you might like, It is also my opinion, that the more encounters likie this one, that end this way, the less they will happen, Make an enemy of one LEO?, you end up with more than one,

Please stop posting this BS! There is NO LAW IN NEVADA REQUIRING YOU TO INFORM OFFICERS! If you think there is, then post the dang statute that says it! You keep posting this BS, but you have yet to be able to post the statute that requires it.

Last time i re-new'd my CCW, was told by instructor, new law was passed where you must inform!, just looked up and found you are correct, just spoke with range where I was told this by there instructor, asking them to please instruct there instructor to not spread this as law, But your rude uncalled for statements are not needed nor valid, SO YOU AND YOUR ATTITUDE CAN GO STRAIGHT TO WHERE THE DEVIL LIVES

Well, at least I pissed you off enough to research and find the correct answer. I might suggest you also invest in a dictionary and maybe an English class or two.

It seems as if the largest sources of misinformation regarding firearms laws are CCW instructors, law enforcement officers and a few gun dealers.
