    The company I drive for is really confused, they say don’t carry a gun, no knives with blade over 4”. Then they say if I’m being robbed then find something to use as a weapon. :confused: I’m really hoping that law will pass that allows truckers to carry in this country. Blaming guns for crimes is like blaming cars for drunk drivers. It makes no sense.

    Are those lawyers going to defend you probono after giving that advice?

    I'd rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6.

    And no, it's not to get idiots to move their trucks who are blocking the fuel island.

    Yes they are but the problem is the advice given is not always the right advice for the person who is charged with the crime.
    This is the scary part: I don't want many drivers to have any weapons, they are not all there to begin with.
