Man pulled over for...being a gun owner

[Baron Von Crowder]

In Texas your LP will tell whether or not you have a CHL or not. Now, they cant really tell if you have it on you, but they will see that along with a valid DL, you also have a CHL.

They use the DMV records/CHL records to build the "database"

I question if Maryland had the ability to see that through his florida plate.

I'm LEO and I have never seen a CHL on a LP return.

have you ever pulled over a CHL holder?

I question if Maryland had the ability to see that through his florida plate.

maybe the story is a bit BS...considering that there is "no" national database that we are "aware" of.

[FastFord19]

Yup. I did yesterday.

Huh, maybe he was BS-ing me

Did I miss something? How did the cop know before he stopped him that he was a gun owner?

That is the big question. How did he know. Does Maryland have access to Florida's database? If so, why? And what would justify the LEO to do that deep a search?

I'm glad Texas is "private". I would hope another state couldn't get to Texas' CHL records.

"In response to a recent complaint about the Maryland Transportation Authority (MDTA) Police and a Jan. 12, 2014, Tampa Tribune article, a preliminary review indicates that all proper protocols were followed throughout the Dec. 30, 2013, 55-minute traffic stop on I-95, which was initiated for a speeding violation. The MDTA takes these allegations seriously and will continue to investigate this personnel matter."

So, the guy gets stopped for speeding, gives cop CHL, cop asked if he had a gun on him he says no, then asked wife if there was a gun in the car and she says that their might be. Officer thinks something is suspicious about it, and searches the vehicle.

Seems like a bit of over-reach on the cop's part, but the originally posted article wasnt really truthful or accurate.

Didn't the article state other cars were passing him and the LEO? If it went down the way the article stated, the LEO should lose his job.

The article also states he wasnt even speeding.

I just left some nice comments on their Facebook page.

I wonder what he will do after the lawsuit when he all but officially owns Maryland?

That is beyond ridiculous.

almost unbelievable, huh?

Until video surfaces it is he said she said. I know way the article states. Bu keep in mind officers and departments lie when it is convenient.
