Well, so it is. See, I learn something new here just about every day. How about that? (Or as the cool kids say now, "how bow dah?" [Google it if you don't know, then you can be cool, too !!])

As for the sheriff's attitude, I did not research him - just saw the one news article originally quoted where he seemed to be (righteously) indignant about being denied entry with his firearm, and I just found that to be ironic. IF he was/is as equally upset and vocal that licensed citizens are prohibited from carry in many places where LEO's are not, then good on him - I wish him great success in getting that situation corrected there. If he gets that done, maybe he can give us some pointers about how we might accomplish a similar thing here in Texas.

Sorry guys, didn't mean to start a fracas. It just caught my eye. It's all good.

From Washington state:

Spokane County Sheriff Ozzie Knezovich said he was outraged Saturday night when he was prevented from entering the Spokane Arena to promote a charity hockey game, because he was carrying his gun -- even though he was on duty.

Welcome to our world, Sheriff. It would be funny if it wasn't highlighting the similar predicament faced by us "common" LTC'ers here in Texas.

But to see what IS funny, click on the photo and take a look at his nice 1911. Now take a real close look at his custom grips. How ironic is that?!?!
