I get outta most tickets cuz I have a pistol n the car and a permit. They walk up to the window and my hands are both on the wheel. They say their introductory statement n then as soon as there is pause I say officer I want to let you know I have a loaded firearm in the vehicle and a concealed carry permit, would you like me to step out so you can secure the weapon.. Cop is expecting an everyday pistol.. Then he realizes it's a 50round 9mm calico. We spend a few minutes talking about the gun, he thanks me for letting him know it was in the truck and sends me on my way without a ticket.
I'm not making this shit up. It works roughly 75% of the time. The other 25% I use my fantastic lawyer Tim Coogan, outta Tacoma. 250 to him will get any ticket reduced to a non moving infraction.
When I was young the cops used to fuck w me a lot. Every time I got pulled over car was getting searched(didn't kno I could say no). But back then it was almost a given that I was doing something wrong. Now I'm in my 30s n more or less have my shit together. The last time my car got searched was 08, I'm still on probation for that day. But weed is legal, concealed strap is legal. What more could I ask for.
While I'm rambling... I don't like cops and I wish I never had to deal w em. Never in my life has a cop helped me, only sent me to a cage. BUT... All this police shooting controversy in the last couple years has made me think about this. Cops have such a shitty job. I can't understand why anyone would want that as a career. The pay is around the same as an assistant manager at any old place.. And they have to mostly deal with the scum of the earth... And during a work shift they have the opportunity to catch a life sentence if they make a bad decision. WHAT A SHITTY CAREER CHOICE.
