Educated a cop about transporting a firearm in a vehicle

[Billybob]

"open" means the firearm is transported in plain view, in a case designed for carrying firearms, which case is wholly or partially visible, in a gun rack mounted in the vehicle, in an exterior locked compartment or a trunk of a vehicle.

Since a firearm can't be in two places at once I'm thinking all of those are considered "open" and the commas should be read as "or".

That was the point...Any of those stated are acceptable...Logic says you could NEVER satisfy ALL of them.

Since when is "logic" employed in law enforcement?

And what, pray tell, do you mean by this comment?

Apparently "logic," is not used by people who live in "Out in the the sticks, OK". Why, you say? Because we have a rule here about broad bashing of law enforcement, and that's what you did. Consider this your only warning.

One also has to wonder how the officer would have taken it if it hadn't been a lawyer informing him.

I had a similar situation on the way from duck spot #1 to duck spot #2 last year... Stopped for rolling a stop sign, dressed head to toe in camo probably wearing face paint, shotgun with action open sitting on passenger seat with 3 shells sitting on the seat.

I wasn't sure what to expect when he walked up, and I didn't want to start grabbing at stuff on the passenger seat. Ended up getting a warning, and he didn't say anything about the gun. Hurray, now I know I can do that

No, not just that! He would need a pistol case that was fully visible, even while being locked in a gun rack in his trunk.
So he would need a glass or plexiglass trunk lid. Everyone sans SDA without a see-through trunk lid and a trunk gun rack is carrying illegally!!

I never know how to take a comma.

No, commas kill.
No commas, kill.
