Carrying while Trucking.

I was thinking about possibly getting into trucking and I found a school half an hour away that would cost $2800 and take about a month to go through. I have a carry permit in my own state and know how to get a permit in several others so that with reciprocity between a few permits I could carry in over 40 states plus Illinois just legalized carry. I was wondering if it is still possible to make money and work if you avoid the areas like DC, New York, California that are run by people who hate the Constitution and the right to keep and bear arms and have set up their states permit system so that non-residents can't get a permit. With the recent passage of a Carry Law in IL carrying firearms is now legal in all 50 states, but in some states non residents cant get permits and some states are may issue with anti-gun rights people that deny most everyone( Los Angeles county for example).

Are there any companies that are friendly to the safety of their truckers? Are their many that are not and that ban their truckers from carrying the means to defend themselves? I'm sure there have to be some, but are most of them like that? Is it possible to make money and secure work in this industry and still carry the means of defending oneself?

This guy makes truck driving sound downright scary. What you guys have to deal with is ridiculous. Your rig should be legally considered your home, it would make things so much easier.

To be honest if the company I was working for hired my own personal armed body guard or a few ninjas then I would be willing to truck without Shelby.
