Re: Personal rant about ticket.
I was stopped soon after moving to GA. Had just got my CCW permit.
So, I told the officer right away that I had a CCW and a gun in my jacket. His response? "Yea, will fine - but that is now why I stopped you, sir".
He did not appear to care. I asked Major Beam of Spalding county about if I should inform the officer. His response? "Well, probably not, unless you are asked. First, it sounds like you are "grandstanding" a bit, you know, bragging that you are such a good citizen, that you passed the state and FBI checks. Second, the fact is, a permit-holder is not a statistical threat, your record must be very clean in order to pass the background check".
It goes against my grain, but I n o longer mention it.
