    Yeah I know but my point was, even if your in a state that recognizes CWP's, you still gotta think about your situation when going in some of the plants. You can still find yourself in a fix.

    The only time I thought I needed my gun was a broker load that had me go to a Sears directly across the street from the projects and I had to spend the night there. I had my crowbar and knife out and ran my seat belts through my doors.

    I REALLY think that No Gun signs are the dumbest thing ever, since anyone who is crazy enough to shoot someone will bring their gun and shoot regardless of what the sign says just like all of the shootings that take place where innocent unarmed people are shot. How come you never hear about someone shooting up a gun store? Because the people there have guns too. Guns are all around us so those who say that they do not need a gun or want guns in the building are advertising their vulnerabilities and making themselves the perfect targets.

    Then again, I do see some truckers who go into a rage at the shipper if they have to pay a $10 fee, so maybe that is why they cannot have guns lol.

    Why would a driver have to pay a ten dollar fee at a shipper?

    So in other words, it doesn't matter whether its legal or not, you're still going to do it. Just what the world needs. Another trucker who carries a gun and isn't afraid to break the law with it. And still so many of us wonder why truckers have such a bad reputation. Thus proving once again, we get the industry that we deserve. Sigh.

    How about that truck driver on the news that accidently went into Mexico with an ammo shipment? That boy is still in jail.

    To carry and to transport are two very different things. What good is it if it's locked up?
