Most unfortunate all the way around. Before I got a license to carry a handgun, I never declared the weapon if asked I were armed. Saying yes would been a ticket to jail depending on the officer. After getting the license, I always present it first. Usually there's no comment. In the above video, I think the cop over reacted. However, I don't think he should pay a penalty. Like I said, it was most unfortunate. Texas has a gun culture. The other state does not. Here having a gun in your vehicle is somewhat accepted.
