If two normal looking guys who don't throw off the dirt bag vibe are heading to the shooting range and a cop pulls them over for speeding, here is how that goes:
Cop: You were stopped because you were speeding, where you boys headed?
Dude: The Shooting range
Cop: So you have guns in the vehicle?
Dude: Yes, Sir.
Cop: Ok, sign here, press hard, you are making three copies, slow down, have a good time at the range.
No blading at 45*, no dogs shot, no drama, no being cuffed and questioned for hours, no running serial numbers... none of that. This isn't New Jersey!
Dude: To the shooting range.
Cop: Do you have long guns?
Dude: Yes, in the trunk with a couple spare mags and ammo next to them in the same bag.
Cop: OK, you are 999 ft from West Podunk Elementary, please get out of the car and put your hands behind your back...
Cop: I am part of the West Podunk Joint Federal "Project Exile" Task Force and as such a Special Deputy US Marshal. You are under arrest for violation of Title 18 US Code 921a. You can have a hearing in front of the Magistrate Judge for Eastern District of Texas and see if he will grant you bail while you await your Federal Grand Jury indictment.
Dude: I better call Saul...
But, officer, I live across the street from the school.
So...... you are a habitual violator, is that what you are saying? Book 'em Danno!
