My jewels are worth at least that! To me anyway. LOL!
Seriously though, it is a shame that, to make sure you aren’t going to get in a bunch of un-needed trouble, folks really need to check out where it is “safe” to carry and where your time on the street is at stake. When we drove from FL to NV I checked out our route and avoided places where we might get in to a hassle. Avoided IL in it’s entirety. Just on the off chance that we might be going over the speed limit or something that could entice a stop by local LEO’s. Agree that this should NOT be the case anywhere one travels in this country. I don’t understand why some out there believe that the BOR “grants” us the “right” to do anything. The BOR used to protect us from the gov. Not so much now. Heck, the EPA could probably have you shut down for polluting the air with gun smoke. WTH?
Yuppers. I avoided New York on a recent trip from Montana to California.
