One of my CCW class students just called me. He had his truck towed and spent 2 hours in the Pine Lawn jail.
He and two friends (all black with Arabic names) were stopped by two black cops for DWB. My student had a gun in an IWB holster and two guns under the seat. He has a CCW permit from FL. Missouri recognizes all permits, period. One of the guns under the seat was a Glock 17 with the 30-round mag for the Glock 18 in it.
The cops had never heard of Missouri's 2003 no-permit car carry law, and claimed it didn't exist.
The cops claimed my student had had 30 days to "transfer" his FL non-resident permit to Missouri, which he had not done. (Utter nonsense.)
The cops claimed the CCW law only allowed you to carry one gun. (Utter nonsense.)
The cops said they were going to contact ATF about the "illegal" 30 round magazine.
After seeing the name on his DL, one cop made rude comments about "You Arabs come over here and f*ck our black women" BS.
I gave my student the number of a very good lawyer. They didn't charge him with anything, just made him spend the time in jail and made him pay to get his vehicle back, so I don't know if anything can be done. They still have his guns.
Idiots.
