First LEO stop.... ever

I got pulled over by the Dallas Police today. I received a citation for making a right turn at a red light without stopping. The only problem I have with that is that I came to a complete stop. But I digress. I had my .40 cal in the glove box. When I pulled over, I had my DL, CHL and insurance in my hand with the window rolled down. I gave the officer all of the documents and he immediately handed back my CHL and insurace card saying he only needed my license. Before he went back to his car he asked me if I had my weapon with me and if so, where was it located. I informed him that it was in my glove box. The officer said, "Great!" Then he went back and wrote the citation. I was in and out in 5 minutes. He was extremely friendly and I was shocked that he didn't have any reaction to the fact I had a weapon. Especially since this was off of Webb Chapel and Forest Lane. He told me to have nice day and we departed. Although I might have been in the wrong with my right turn, it was a very courteous stop.

Hats off to DPD for the great experience (minus the ticket, of course)
