I drove to the county clerks office today in an attempt to obtain my concealed permit. I had my gun in my car. I walked around trying to find the damn place. Walked in. Realized I had a magazine in my left coat pocket that was lodaed but not before Isstarted empting my pockets. At this point I notified the Securitas security guard. i figured it was best to go with honesty instead of trying to gather up my shit and walk back out. I did notice the sign outfront that said no weapons but apparntely ammunition is included within this law, but again I did not know/remember I had the magazine on me. The securitas employee went to retrieve a county officer. Make a long story short: I was arrested on counts of havng a concealed weapon in a courthouse. Class I misdemeaner. Court trial december 11th.
I need a good lawyer for the Fairfax County area. Please give me some numbers. thanks.
Other questions:
How does this affect me applying for a concealed now?
How does his affect me carrying openly?
Does this affect either?
Does this disqualify me from owning a firearm in some way?
damn it,
Darrin
EDIT: the two policemen who handled me were extremely unprofesional and incourteous (as my experience always seems to go) as well as the dumbass redneck magistrate who basicall told me I am gonna get shot if I carry opnely in a car if I get pulled over (to which I responded that the officer would be in gross violation of the law, to which they all responded with laughs and arrogant posturing). And thier comments while I was subjected to a strip search (but dont worry, I am never one to hold back my opnion so I did let a few choice counterpunches out) made it the most humiliating event in my entire life.
I did speak with one lawman who was courteous but I think it may have been more to get me to calm down. The female officer in the room at first was courteuos enough to pick up my translucent guitar picks form my pockes whn the other guys refused to as they were baggin up me property. The fingerprint guy was ok too as well as the oungman who led me out of the place when my bond was paid and almost 1.5 hours passed...
