not just missouri, best to avoid all cops

Add getting shot by cops to the list of reasons not to have a gun

If I have a gun in the glove box and the officer asks if I have any weapons, the answer is "no, sir."

What if you have your insurance there?

You should try to have that out and ready before the cop approaches the vehicle. Even if you were going to tell the cop about your gun, the last thing you want to do is to reach into an area where the gun is and let the cop guess whether you are actually grabbing the insurance or the gun.

Rage might be at a high risk of being cop shot

If you have a gun and they ask you must tell them.

If you have a gun and they ask you must tell them.

Hmmm.... I wonder if this is part of gun safety courses.

If you have a gun and they ask you must tell them.

That only matters if they actually find a gun.

After reading here how much the formerly alive guy did wrong, I'm wondering if the cop should file a civil suit himself against the surviving family for all the hassle this ended up being for him, including having lost his job.

Perhaps somewhere in the rebel Minnesota State bbs' pit, Yanez is laying out his argument in the "not just missouri, best to avoid all black people" thread.

Not worth the risk.  Just tell them.  You're white anyway.

 you can put the odds of them finding the gun if you're black at approximately 100%

If they don't find one they have one to plant anyway.

After shooting you to death of course.

That was the only bit of useful info i got from my CCL class. How to carry and not get shot. I was told (by a police officer) who taught our class that it is best tell them even when not asked when he comes up so he does not see it if you move to get your license or get in the glove box.

I keep mine in the console so when I had them my license I also hand them my CCL. I had never once (4 times) had the officer even ask where it was.

Gooch you need to fix that damn tail light man.

I get about two tickets a year. I speed way too much.

As much as I respect his commitment to keep classic american iron on the road a high mileage accord might have been the better buy

Mr. Castile’s sister Allysza said her brother’s love of wide-bodied, older-model cars, like the 1997 Oldsmobile he bought for $275 and was driving when he was shot, attracted police officers’ attention.

Ms. Castile was pulled over three times when she borrowed his car, she said, because “those are mostly stereotyped as drug dealer-type cars.”

I read that bit earlier. Who smells pot and then fears for their life?

[Tobias]

sounds like officer yanez overdosed on reefer madness

[star seed 7]

I feared for the safety of the little girl so I shot my gun in her direction hoping the black man would stop all the bullets

[Cartierfor3]

That cop actually said second hand smoke was a reason for him to shoot someone.
