I'm stealing an idea from others on this board. I thought I'd just chronicle the few interactions that I have with the public... and post them on this board more for my purposes, than otherwise. Enjoy!
Nov. 12th 8:30pm - Chevron Convenience store
I walk in, select my merchandise, and walk up to the register wallet in hand. The clerk is a early 20s female who asks me how my evening is going... then asks, "so are you a cop?" I simply said, "no."
Clerk: "so you just carry that around all the time?" (genuine curiousity, no fear or apprehension)
Me: "yes"
Clerk: "oh, so you're just like, a normal person? So you have your permit then?"
Me: (laughing a bit) "yes, I'm "just" a normal person, probably kinda like you... actually I don't need a permit to visibly carry my gun in Idaho. I mean, I've got my permit, but I usually carry this way.
Clerk: "oh, yeah, I heard something about that... as long as you don't cover it up you don't need a permit."
Me: "yup"
Clerk: "Ok. I'm cool with guns."
(I left out the do you want a bag and sales amount conversation... conversation remembered to the best of my ability)
