STORY FROM A HIGHWAY PATROL OFFICER

I made a traffic stop on U.S. 166 Eastbound at Mile Marker 73 just East of Sedan, KS.

I asked for her driver's license, registration, and proof of insurance.

The lady took out the required information and handed it to me.

In with the cards I was somewhat surprised (due to her advanced age) to see she had a conceal carry permit.

I looked at her and ask if she had a weapon in her possession at this time.

She responded that she indeed had a .45 automatic in her glove box.

Something---body language, or the way she said it---made me want to ask if she had any other firearms.

She did admit to also having a 9mm Glock in her center console.

Now I had to ask one more time if that was all.

She responded once again that she did have just one more, a .38 special in her purse.

I then asked her what was she so afraid of.

She looked me right in the eye and said, "Not a damn thing!"
Don't blame me. Blame Doug.

  1. Mimi, I find myself wondering whether this is really a joke sent in by Doug or in reality an incident from earlier in your week.

  2. Cathy, you can be sure the lady is not me. I hate guns. Tom thinks the woman in the picture looks like me, but I'd like to think she appears to have a few more years on her than I do.

  3. Mimi, I can't picture Jesus or you with a gun. Also, you are much better looking than the Pistol Packin' Mama in the photo.
