No voice recorder so this is what I remember.
Got pulled over on US 95 south bound about an hour ago. Trooper told me to keep my hands on the handle bars. Comes up on my left side and takes my .44 out of my cross-draw holster. I was riding my Harley. He takes my gun back to his car then comes back. He says he pulled me over for speeding and not signaling, which I didn't deny because I was and I did.
"Why are you caring a gun?"
"I always carry a gun."
"Lets see so ID."
I give him my DL. He goes back to his car and comes back a few minutes later.
"Lets see some paperwork for the bike and you better have your blue card(Clark County Registration)for that gun."
I hand over registration and insurance.
"The gun is registered."
"Wheres your blue card?"
"I'm not required to carry it."
"Could arrest you right now."
:shock:Huh?
It goes on like this for a few minutes. He wants to know how I'm going to prove that its registered, I keep telling him I don't have to prove it.
He goes back to his car. He's back there for about 20 mins. Looked like he was talking on his phone. Probably trying to find out if I'm right or not.
He comes back. Now he is telling my he could keep my gun and I would have to come pick it up later.(What? no arrest anymore, weird!)
He keeps on about how does he know its register and theres no serial # on the gun.(Its covered up by the Hogue grips I put on it. I keep on with "I don't need to carry the blue card, I don't need to prove its registered, yata yata yata."
"What if I wasn't a resident of Clark County?"
"I would arrest you."(We're back to that? Which is it?!)
"But I would have 60 days to register it."
"You gotta have a blue card."
"What if I bought it yesterday? I have 72 hour to register it."
"I would arrest you. You still have to have the blue card."
:banghead:My head hurts by this point.
"I need you to give me a reason not to take your gun."
:shock:What?! I'm starting to lose it!
"Sir, you do whatever you feel it necessary."
Guess what? I got my gun back.
"I need you to open those saddle bags. You stand over by that fence(about 40 feet away). I'll put your ammo in one and your gun in the other. After I leave you can come back and collect them."
:lol: This is such a blatant ploy to look in my saddle bags that I almost laugh out loud! He is so stupid and my saddle bags were so empty so I just said whatever.
He leaves, I get my gun back and a date to appear in court for not using my turn signal. Don't no why he didn't write me up for the speeding, maybe he thought I was cute. And who ever heard of going to court for not signaling. Seems like a waste of everyones time. Just let me pay the fine and be done with it.
