"We worked on a couple of new scenarios with rookies handling car stops with permit holders, where someone says, 'I have a gun and I have a permit' and you're (the trooper) standing outside their car door. What do you do? I don't have the answer," said Sgt. Al Freng, with the State Patrol's training academy.

How about this:

1) Stop acting as tax collectors for the state, and only make stops when you have probable cause or reasonable suspicion that a *real* crime has been committed.

2) Stop acting like wimps. A Free people have every Right to be armed, and the sight of an armed American should not be reason for cops to be afraid. Unless they just committed a felony or are strung out on drugs, it shouldn't matter if they are armed or not.

So many of our military is overseas, our borders are wide open, And we must be able to protect ourselves. Our Congress, has failed to protect us. Quite frankly, I am a little afraid of guns, because too many hot heads and medicated people around, but I would like to protect my family in an emergency situation.
