Today Sunday 05 May 11 I took my Children for a ride in the country.We decieded to stop for lunch in the small Southern Tier Town we were in. Across the Street from the Little Diner,There was the State Police giving an seminar on Drug Awareness. Both my Daughters wanted to go and, see the dogs and, the State Troopers. Now, not even thinking I had my Napsack on my arm. And in my napsack was my Pain Pills from my
recent back surgery. when we got close to the Troopers and, the dogs I set my napsack down to pick up my 4 year old she was a little frighten by the dogs. When all of a sudden the German Sheppard K9 started going crazy and scratching at my napsack. from this point the Trooper asked what was in my bag. I advised him it was my pain medication. when the other trooper approached he asked if he could look in my bag. Thank God that I didnt take any pain medicine today. The Trooper found the small bottle in my napsack and verified my name according to the perscription label. I was armed today and I advised the Trooper that I was carriyng. from here he asked if he could remove my weapon and make it safe. I agreed. from here I proceeded to retreive my drivers lic. and my Pistol permit. I was asked again if i had taken any of the pain medication today I said no. from this point I was read the riot act. Carrying an concealed weapon with pain medication( Not a good or, smart move on my part) after everything was verified by the troopers. The lead Trooper said to me that if i was alone and didnt have my kids with me they would of taken me to their barracks and have my urine tested. I learned a very hard lesson today. the Troopers were all very professional not at any time did they treat me badly. Im still kicking myself in the A_ _
for doing that. It just goes to show one little mistake can get ugly really fast. the worse part of the whole process was having this happen in front of my children and a crowd of around 40 poeple. very Embarrassing for me. I never in a million years would think something like this could happen. Hats off to the State Police they handled everything very Professional. Im just glad it was them and not some small town Sherriff. after all that was done we decieded to leave that small town and eat lunch else where. i was to beside myself with Embarrassment to stay in that town and NEVER,NEVER CARRY PAIN MEDICINE WHEN CCWing even if your not taking any. I know or thought, I knew better than that. I have become a little to relaxed, pertaining to carrying. I will not make that Mistake again.
