The thing is, you just never know what you are going to get if or when you are pulled over. You might get #1 an experienced, professional well-informed police officer who is a credit to the community, #2 an ignorant rookie, or #3 a cop who likes to make up laws because he thinks that LEOs are the only folks who should be carrying and you just pissed him off because you are armed.
Most people have seen all of these types of cops and you just hope you run into #1 and I think that most cops are this type. However I personally belong to ASDI as to have a lawyer on call 24/7 since there are type #2 and #3 out there. If there should be a "misunderstanding" or a rare lawful use of a firearm that would come into question I would quickly pull out my card and make a call. The incident at Tony's 7 made me a big believer in lawyer on demand. It sure beats facing mistreatment or LEO gun law ignorance. The average cop does not wish to try and match gun law knowledge with a lawyer when he just might be in the wrong or walking on very thin ice.
