Concealed Carry in Taco [and elsewhere]

yeah until you inform and they prone you out because the instant check gets read back wrong etc and you're there for over an hour deprived of your liberty for being polite...all because someone transposed something wrong or recited something wrong etc

 

1. May I see your license and registration please?

needs this info
2. Do you have any weapons in the car?

fishing for more charges


3. Do you know why I pulled you over?

asking you to incriminate yourself

 

There is no requirement for anyone to be perfect 100% of the time. You've made mistakes, I've made mistakes, Cops/Amind folks, etc make mistakes. If you are trying to make a point and/or create an issue you call foul on things like an hour sorting out some confusion. If all your information is order (Valid permit, paperwork, etc) these things are easily fixed...an apology and life goes on.
Maybe instead you'd like to be legally carrying and have a brand new cop get jumpy when he sees your firearm as you reach in that general direction and he shoots you with little warning?? That'd REALLY screw up your personal liberty.

1) Needs the info
2&3) Has every right to ask any question pertinant to the matter at hand. His safety is more important to him than tap dancing politely around to ensure he doesn't remotely come near your civil rights. And if you don't know better than to not answer a question that might incriminate you...That's your fault.

This is news to me. I was told when I was taking my CWP that it is NOT required to notify LEO that you are a permit holder and are concealed.
Only when asked if you have any weapons in the vehicle are you required to give that information up.
I have searched thru the laws concerning sc conceal carry and many of them are very vague and difficult to interpret. Can you direct me to the article number that states I have to offer up information that I am carrying concealed?

 

Thats how you gotta do in Spocompton.

 

damn i was hoping to see those cops get struck by a 18 wheeler or something. i hate watching cops abuse their "authority".

 

It's funny cause I find myself hoping you stop posting cause I hate to see humans that are dicks to other humans.
This is a second time in the past couple hours that something you have said has been this lame. Wishing harm on someone else is a miserable thing to do as on person to another. Actively planning/participating in harming someone is about the only thing that's worse.

 

hangunlaw.us says you must inform http://handgunlaw.us/states/southcarolina.pdf

NC is also a must inform state(but iirc only if you are licensed)

 

It's not what I do that makes me want to carry; it's what the bad guys do to victims that are unable to defend themselves. Every day in the news you hear dreadful stories of violent crimes committed in communities throughout our country. The bad guy is depending on his victim to be defenseless… I don’t want to be defenseless so I choose to carry. It's a personal decision I don’t take lightly. I choose to wear a seatbelt or a helmet when I ride, boots when I hike, a warm coat when it’s cold and a 45 ACP to keep me and my loved ones safe. Just one of the tools I want to have always on hand.

 

Well. That is still more than what I was told. I wasn't even aware that I had to notify the officer that I had a permit. I would guess that after notifying the officer that I do have a permit to carry i'm pretty sure as to what his next question is going to be.

I have only been pulled over 1 time downtown gville during a massive dui checkpoint. Was never asked if I had any weapons in the car so I never volunteered the info.
So thx for the info
