Sure it's still probably a non issue, but the police for the most part are no better with a gun than Joe Schmoe.
wow the cops here have been carrying .40s and .45s for the last couple years and the last fight they were in they didn't miss so bad at all.and a little quick to judge there parker sounded more like bragging rights on that post to me. personally i carry and i feel safe where i live but do i wanna be caught nekid somewhere when i don't feel safe and reach for it and its gone nope.. but your previous post about loading guns and sitting there waiting all comprised my judgment that you brag or are proud of the fact that you own these firearms so don't come off as a kid with a new toy and i wont talk to you like one

well.... cops quit bugging me ever since i obtained a license to carry... they usualy think twice about pulling you over for stupid shit.... and i usualy do carry..... at least in my car
So let me get this straight country boy, when the cops catch you speeding or comitting some other minor infraction or whatever else you may classify as "stupid shit", they know that you have a license to carry therefore they don't mess with you.Your logic is that you're above the law because you have a concealed weapon permit, that's right up there with the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Ever.
I'm not arguing your right to bear arms, but please explain why cops don't bug you because you own a gun.

yes i said i was above the law<----- sarcasim.... did i ever once say i was above the law? do you have a reading problem? maybe you need to get some glasses.... i just said they usualy think twice about pulling you over just to pull you over a.k.a. for something stupid.... like for instance i was listening to my scanner (which i now know is illegal to have in a motor vehicle regardless if it works or not) and they were profiling some little honda with a fart can... but they didnt have any legit reason to pull him/her over.... so they go "well, his liscense plate has a little bit of snow on it".... and they pulled him/her over for that.... that i classify as stupid shit.... i never said that they would'nt pull you over for doing sothing illegal.... i always kept my nose clean, but yet since i drove a loud lil import they would "profile me"(pulling me over for doing a burnout in a AWD CAR!!!)..... now they dont.... they dont bug me over stupid shit anymore.... so with your logic.... you think that everyone that has a permit to carry is above the law? well.... then i would have to say going by your logic that everyone get a permit to carry:icon_joker:and thanks for moving it to "run your mouth" Wes.. i was just going to ask someone to do it

What does you saying you don't get pulled over because you have a liscense to pack heat have to do with the cops profiling a ricer car?
I'm gonna guess that you are trying to say that since you have a truck, you don't get pulled over as much as you did with an import car. I have no clue what that has to do with guns though.

i do have a writing problem..... im just trying to fuel the fire.... which i succeeded in doing
all in all i was just mearly saying that in my experience i havent been pulled over for stupid shit (not doing anything wrong) ever since i obtained a permit.... jeese -
If i were a cop, i most definately wouldn't pull someone over if they had a permit to carry......they could be really dangerous.....alot more dangerous than the people who don't have a permit to carry, because criminals wouldn't carrry a weapon without a permit.

Sure it's still probably a non issue, but the police for the most part are no better with a gun than Joe Schmoe.I don't know about fargo or bismarck, but I've read on the Minot Police department's website that Officer's in Minot are ONLY allowed to carry 9mm or .45ACP/AUTO, in semi automatic, of reputable manufacture. Meaning .357, .40, .44, and 10mm are not allowed by the Minot PD.
Furthermore as to your post, don't be so quick to label a 9mm a pussy gun. Perhaps they are smaller and have less "stopping power", but please remember that a .22 if placed properly is a lethal round.
I speak from personal experience when I say this, but I personally went from carrying a Walther P99 .40 to a P99 9mm because of the larger mag capacity, the more affordable ammo(winchester white box in 9mm is almost half the cost of .40), and overall it's a smaller frame which is easier to conceal.
Furthermore the "stopping power" of a round is not calculated merely by velocity or caliber. It depends on the trauma caused by the round. That is, to say that a .40 FMJ is deadlier than a 9mm JHP would be a false statement. Full metal jacketed rounds are designed more or less to go through objects, in modern ammunition FMJ is most commonly used for target rounds, and in LE/military situations for armor piercing rounds.
Jacketed hollow points on the other hand are designed to mushroom, which will cause a lot more trauma than the FMJ round.
Most cops are trained to be just as lethal with a .22 as with a 9mm, .40, .45, or any larger bore weapon. The emphasis is not on caliber or muzzle velocity, or even weight(grain). Sure most agencies have standards and requirements/recommendations. However when ANY law enforcement agent is trained, be it border patrol, city, county, state, or federal, the emphasis is not on the weapon or cartridge itself. The ephasis is on SHOT PLACEMENT.
You can shoot someone in the leg with a 12 gauge, most damage it can do, sever the limb, they can bleed out if medical treatment is not received in time, however, they would still have time to shoot back.
If you shoot someone in the upper spine(between the shoulders and the base of the skull) with a .22, you can paralyze them from the neck down and would have no ability to shoot back.
Caliber does not matter, shot placement does.
