    I haul government loads and the cab is inspected at every shipper. That is why I don’t. That is the only reason I don’t.

    I carry everywhere all the time. I am an iowa resident with an iowa permit whicb is on the top of the list when it comes to recipricating with other states. Even states that do not you most times are allowed to transport. Illinois i can not carry on my person but i can carry even with one in the camber if inside my vehicle. If you want to argue this. I recently beat a 25 year sentence in chicago for this and stupid ### cops that dont know the laws. Know the laws before you open your flapper when pertaining to gun laws involving semi trucks. In my case not even the D.O.T. federal agent knew the laws so the fmcsa burned his dumb ### along with my rockstar lawyer. Do not listen to cops or truckers. If you need to know about gun laws do youre own homework.

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

    I own my truck and trailer. That's how I support myself. I'm not giving some Thug, Lowlife, Ghetto, Loser anything. You want what I got its gonna be over my dead body.

    Not sure where your buddy got 20 years. In iowa and most other states have adopted the castle law. This means more than stand youre ground. I now have the right to not only save me and my familys life. I can now shoot and kill to save strangers lives that are in danger. It actually gives you immunity. Youre buddy does not deserve to b in jail and needs a better lawyer.
