There was a guy in Florida recently (last year), suspected of selling drugs. It was known that he had a CHL (or whatever FL calls theirs), so they considered him "armed and dangerous".kw5kw wrote:I think that we're just way to paranoid over this issue.
Look,
We are law-abiding citizens OR we would not have our CHL's in the first place. We're law-abiding citizens or we would not have even applied for our CHL's in the second place.
What do we have to worry about? Are you doing something wrong that you should be worried about? You're not committing a felony while you have your CHL are you? If you are.. I hope you get caught. But... Please surrender your CHL beforehand so it won't go against our "good record."
This was their justification for busting into his home at 6am with a full-on SWAT team. Of course, they shot him to pieces when he went for his pistol upon having his home stormed.
This guy was a bartender or a DJ, I forget which. But he was known to get home from work at ~3am. So you can imagine how disoriented he'd be when suddenly awakened at 6am to the sound of his door crashing down. Wouldn't you go for your pistol too?
Edit: BTW, I believe they found an ounce of marijuana in his home. For this he was killed.
