Re: What are you currently reading?

Working by Studs Terkel. Published quite a few years ago, but still relevant. Clinton and Trump both need to read this. They would learn a lot about how real people see the establishment.

Re: First encounter. I hope there aren't more.

I've got to admit that I find the "no guns allowed" thing kind of amusing. Do the people who "don't allow guns" really believe they are contributing anything to their safety or that of their customers by banning OC or CC? Do they think the bad guys are going to pay any attention ...

My first contact was with a LEO in Moody, Texas. I handed over my DL and CHL and he never even asked if I was carrying. Just for my own information: When the LEO runs your plates, does it pop up that you have a CHL?
