Imagine this:
You see red and blue lights flashing in your rear-view mirror, and you look down to realize you were doing 8mph over the limit.
No big deal, right? You greet the officer and politely inform him that you are legally carrying a concealed handgun.
The officer thanks you and walks back to his squad car with your paperwork.
Only ... he doesn't return with a warning. INSTEAD: He returns looking unhappy and stressed...!
"Sir..." he says, before delivering some news that has the potential to destroy your life.
It turns out, YOU BROKE THE LAW. And you had no idea you were doing it...
...Maybe your permit expired. Maybe you had wandered into an unfriendly jurisdiction. Maybe you had a banned type of ammunition in your pistol's magazine. Maybe you violated some obscure statute designed to helpkeep career criminals off the street.
Or maybe someone saw your handgun "printing" through your shirt and panicked, and called the cops.
Or maybe you were just at the wrong place, at the wrong time, and you didn't know the right people, and you were caught in the system's spotlights at the worst possible moment.
REGARDLESS: In the cold, hard eyes of the law, YOU are now instantly lumped in with the worst of the worst.
AND WORST OF ALL?
That innocent mistake you just made now carries a MANDATORY 4-year felony charge!
"I am so sorry..." says the officer.
"My hands are tied. I'm afraid I have to place you under arrest."
No, you can't use your phone.
No, you can't just get a number from your contacts.
No, you can't go home. No, you can't explain to your boss. Or your spouse. Or your kids. Or the magistrate. Or the Judge.
Oh — you'll have your day in court. Months and months and tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars later.
It is a well-known fact that if you took all federal and state laws surrounding the ownership, use, and carrying of a firearm — and stuffed them into one volume — that book would exceed 10,000 pages in length.
And yet as the classic cop-saying goes ... if you Jaywalk, the law usually looks the other way. Jaywalking with a gun, however, can and often is a very, very big deal...!
Do you trust yourself to walk this line perfectly...?
And more importantly ... DO YOU HAVE A PLAN in case you accidently slipupwithout even realizing it...?
Who do you call...?
What attorney do you have on the line...?
How will you pay for it...?
How will you ensure that you're not automatically fired from your job and deprived of every resource you've spent your life working forin those critical moments, exactly when you need them the most...?
Perhaps more importantly: what's the easiest way to learn and remember the laws that apply to you so that you DON'T end upin that life-destroying hot seat...?
