The other night about 11pm I got stopped by a young deputy who seemed bored, turned out one side license plate light was out — pretty lame. Anyway I told him when walked up I had my CWP and my weapon right here, and my wallet was with the weapon. Asked him if he wanted both the license and CWP and the weapon and he said no just give me the cards and my registration and insurance cards, leave the weapon where it was, which I did. He was pretty relaxed about it all, then gave me some bullsh*t warning about the light.
