    Default LEO Encounter

    Was pulled over tonight on my way home from work (Cleveland, Ohio). As the LEO approached the vehicle i had my window down and my hands at 10 and 2 on the steering wheel. When he approached my window, i politely said Officer, i would just like to tell you, I have a valid CCW permit and i do have a loaded firearm on my person. He asked what condition the weapon was in, i stated "condition 1", he asked where the firearm is, i stated on my right side hip. He said what kind of firearm is it, i stated a Glock 21, he stated excellent choice and thanks for informing me. We continued to discuss firearms for about 5 minutes (on the side of the road) then he stated drive safe and carry on my friend,...... No ticket, no warning, no hassle.

    He was very polite and supportive, great encounter

    Very glad to hear! Just another honest policeman making a living and not making the news for doing his job.

    Yup, same here. Once with a city police (speeding) and once with a deputy (expired tag). ...I've since slowed down and do NOT depend on the mailed statements for tags! Anyway, the officers were not concerned at all.

    I've gotten out of my share of tickets too. I am always polite and respectful. I just don't see any need to be rude or give police officers a hard time.

    Please tell us he looked at your license and insurance. If he didn't, he was not doing his job.

    Would you say the officer wasn't doing his job if he did not take the guys gun and run the serial number to see if it was stolen?
