Re: Similar to the DPS officer running the Serial thread, bu
He left me sitting IN the car, actually... Had me lean forward to disarm me.

Re: Similar to the DPS officer running the Serial thread, bu
Brenham P.D., actually. He first asked me if I was carrying, then if it was loaded and chambered, where the weapon was located (at 6 o'clock) then he asked if I minded if he reached back there and removed said weapon. He unholstered the weapon, and placed it directly on the roof of my vehicle while he looked at something, then grabbed the gun and walked back to his vehicle to finish his fishing trip. While in his vehicle, he unloaded the weapon and gave it back to me slide locked back and mag in the other hand. Funny thing was I had two guns in my travel bag and a shotgun in the backseat, which he let be, while taking my CCW.

Similar to the DPS officer running the Serial thread, but...
I was pulled over for the second trip in a row to Austin (no front license plate). The officer asked, "May I remove your weapon from your holster?" after which I responded in the affirmative. First off, I've never done anything so drastic, but I wanted to punch the guy in the face when he put my gun directly on the roof of my car
. I mean, let me get a towel out for you or something, don't just put a metal gun directly on my car! But then he ran the serial numbers on his little fishing trip. So for future reference, is their any legal recourse for answering his request with a, no, I don't want you to pull my gun? I don't know if there's a clause similar to refusing to blow (since said officer didn't demand my weapon, rather asked, quite politely, I might add). All in all, not a bad stop, as it was another warning, and I was back to the trip in 10 minutes or so, to pass all the stupid soccer moms who love to ride the left lane at 5 under.
