The story is a student saw the outline of a pocket knife in his back pocket as he was sitting somewhere....got “skeered” and called 911....then, when the officers “talked” to him, and asked him if he had anything else...he said “Yes, a pistol, for which I have a license to carry.” That’s how this got this far...
I guess I'm blessed to live in one of the remaining formerly united states.
This is exactly why I instruct my students for the FL ccw permit that concealed means exactly that! If they're walking around and the cover garment gets blown up by a gust of wind and some little kid catches a glimpse of the gun, all he has to do is trot over to the nearest cop and WAIL: That man has a GUN and I'm scared! The charge will be illicit display. You could have your permit yanked. WHY on earth keep a pocket knife in your back pocket? Kinda uncomfortable to sit on, I would think. I keep mine in a front pocket for easy and fast deployment. Plus, nobody knows. I'm just as careful with my concealment of a firearm.
