Went down to Chattanooga to Sam's. Went shopping for all the goodies :lol:.
Was OC'ing, and a guy comes up to me and asks, "Are you a police office?"
(Sh*t). "No i'm not." He says, "Why are you carrying a gun?" I say, "Because i can."
He looks at me with a stupid look on his face. (Must be normal) I say, "I can because
of the Second Amendment." He looks away, then turns back to me and says, "I've
got a Handgun concealed permit." (Shows his knowledge about the handgun laws
in the state of Tennesse, nil) I respond that, "I got a Handgun Carry Permit, not
Concealed. That's why I'm open carrying." He: "Whatever you think. I used to be
a police officer....yada, yada, yada. I've got four permits."(What is this, a game of
who has the most?) And on and on ad nausem. I again told him that it is a Handgun
CARRY Permit. "What ever you think."
Left him at that point, seen him a time or two after that, thankfully he wasn't trying
to cause me any grief, or make my day more unpleasant with store management.
Remember that i did get some hard stares from one woman about carrying, but
that's her problem.
