    I give firefighters due respect for the job they do, but come on man, why do they even care. Sounds like he didn't get up on the wrong side of the bed but just forgot to wake up his brain.

    After reading through this entire thread (minutes wasted from my life as others) I think this post needs some details or it should just be dismissed.

    I have known Firefighters all over the planet (Literally...) and I have never met one that would do such a stupid move unless the other guy was putting him up to it, or had a small dick syndrome and using a uniform to be "authoritative"....

    Maybe the OP just doesnt like FF's. Without further details, we should all go read another more productive thread.

    just my :twocents:,

    What Arbys were you at? I am a fireman in the city and most of us either know the rules or carry ourselves. The reason most of us carry is because we see things that go on in neighborhoods that most people have no idea is happening. So sorry for the two complete idiots you had to deal with. Good job telling them off!

    I too would really like to hear where this occurred. I don't think the OP realized what a fecal tornado he was starting when he posted this. I'm glad out LEO's are getting a small break from the bashing threads today.

    Why did this thread have to get so damn serious? I was laughing my rear off for 6 pages and now everyone is getting all offended.

    Who cares if the story is real or not? Its funny, crack jokes and have fun. I doubt anyone is changing their opinion of FFs over this. If it is true, it was just a couple of jerks (all professions have those). If it is made up, its still funny.

    I would have said "sure... after you show my your DL, registration, and proof of insurance".

    LIGHTEN UP PEOPLE!

    yeah they would rather be sitting at the station watching the playboy channel. At least that been my experience at firehouses. A great "guy" environment, but not one you would wanna send your wife or daughter into alone.

    I woulda just let him see it. No harm done, its not like anyone will get hurt. And if your open carry its not like you will ruin element of surprise by showing somone it >.<

    But I would have asked for a ride around the block in a firetruck.

    Just something to chew on for a while -

    When you really ponder it, a fireman has just as much right to ask for your LTCH as a police officer does when you're simply standing in line for breakfast, not committing any crime. Neither of them should care or bother you.

    We have the right to keep and bear arms. I long for the day when one can start a thread about how some clueless officer asked to see a handgun license and the carrier just laughed him off too.

    Ah...neither has the right, but the police have the power to do so, as laid out in the IC.

    If you agree to carry the pink card, you have agreed to be bound by these laws or face the consequences, no matter how ridiculous they may seem.

    'tain't right, but 'tis what is.

    he's not kidding there folks. I heard many first hand accounts of strippers and whores in firehouses :):

    HIGH FIVE

    If I ever get elected mayor (yeah right), firefighters would be cutting the grass in parks with their free time.

    We do. Lawn care is probably the biggest off day job for firefighters, next to meter reader.

    Cool.

    We've done police, firemen, and politicians.

    Now we need to do

    Teachers

    Lawyers

    Long-Term health care

    Soldiers

    Trash Men

    The guys that hook up your cable

    And probably a few more...
