All the new proposals Ive seen don't have a grandfather clause. I think California was the first state to implement a no grandfather clause on guns and mags a few years ago and should have been shut down but I don't know if it was ever challenged. Massachusetts has a new law on bumpfire stocks where...

Alright, I dont know what law or laws he was quoting but he seemed very matter of fact about all the answers so Im not going to test him. Just like the HB823 I read on the Texas site and listened to Mrs. Tripp on the TSRA website talk about I asked him about it also and he said "if I find a gun...

Ok I'll throw this in while talking to my trooper friend said he knows of this officer that pulled me over and he is a new trooper. Interesting enough he said that the DPS has the right to search any vehical once pulled over for a viloation at any time unlike a city cop which might or might not have...

Ok learned something else, I was just thinking how many people here have so many different opinions on this which should be a pretty much black and white area, like the trooper I spoke to about this he is LE not Law Interpitor a.k.a. judge. What he would arrest you for the judge might think otherwis...

Well I talked to a trooper I know and a retired Longview PD Capt. about this they both said the officer can do this and "not a good idea to pursue this any further." This "is tactics for people under suspicion with criminal records". I asked about a refuse to search and was told ...

Yes llwatson said what I was wanting to ask after reading the then following replies I think I can see the troopers motive I guess, anyway at least I got it off my chest to more informed people other than familiy and friends.
Thanks.

I guess what I wanted was a "yes that is not right and report him!" or a "sorry that happened but he can legally do that, live with it!" I also want to know if this is the about the norm as it is my first encounter since having a CHL.

NO SIR, I was stating I was answering his questions but with the "double talk" after I gave him my information I was just digging a hole to no where. I was the one that shut up. I would also like to add from the begining of the stop til I left the officer was less than polite. I didnt want...

So if I get pulled over again I can refuse a search? Then what will happen I am told it will be more trouble than its worth? Also do you think I should get the troopers sergent or somebody involved even though I think he will just blow me off or what? I am not looking for trouble far from it, but wh...

Hello everybody I wish my first post could be on a lighter note but its not. I got pulled over on 259 in Longview for speeding about 3:30 pm by the dps about two weeks ago. As soon as the officer was informed I had a CHL he said "with out reaching for it where is the gun." I told him I had...
