The only time I was ever cuffed :eek6 and thrown into the pokey (nearly 50 years ago) the police were quick :smilelol5: to ascertain, separate and distance the unruly and rowdy scofflaws from their innocent bystanding peers. Yeah, "rlol" I know that was right. :smilelol5:

Just before my sainted mother hung up on my one call, she said, "Stupid, you're known by the company you keep. Have a nice evening". :cryin

Maybe, it'll work out better for you and your friends?

Say I was camping at the lake in a state park. I have my pistol locked in my vehicle during the day (during water activities, etc.). I would probably leave it in there until I hit the tent for bed. If some friends or acquaintances got loud or stupid enough to draw attention and the Police came to investigate and I was somehow tossed into the mix, what next? If I was intoxicated and they asked for ID from everyone. I of course show both CHL and DL and they ask if I have a gun on me, do I tell them "no" or do I inform them its in my vehicle? Would saying its in my vehicle open me up for more problems?

I am not loud and don't cause trouble, but I can see a situation similar to this happening at some point in my life and I am wondering what the correct course of action would be. Keep in mind I would not have a firearm on me while consuming alcohol.
Also, is having a firearm in your tent covered by The Castle Doctrine?


Thank in advance
Have you ever thought about a new set of friends and acquaintances? Perhaps some mature folk who would not put you in harm's way with their "loud or stupid" antics? Just sayin'...
