In terms of section 21 what is unlawful is not necessarily unreasonable. The lawfulness or unlawfulness of a search will always be highly relevant but will not be determinative either way.
For example, the urgency of the moment or a reasonable misapprehension as to the authority to search or excusable non-compliance with the precise statutory requirements may diminish the significance otherwise attaching to non-compliance with the search laws. But if a search warrant is readily obtainable that must tell strongly against an unauthorised search. Similarly, the reasonable exercise of the power to search without warrant, requires that it be resorted to only where it is reasonably necessary to do so before a warrant can be obtained.

So if the cops feel like searching you without probable cause, they can...  as long as it is deemed "reasonably necessary"...

That's scary, too.

I think I'm gonna go live in a cave...

VonMessa, You think that’s scary, In North Carolina, if you are pulled over and a cop finds out you have a gun in the car, (no matter if you told him about it or not) it is up to the DISCRETION of the arresting officer if the weapon is considered concealed or not.

Felony charge, 20 grand for attorney fees, and a possible sentence?
Way too much power (or the opportunity to abuse such power) if you ask me.

This is why one should obtain a License to Carry a Concealed Firearm, then it is never an issue    Good thing North Carolina has a reciprocity agreement with Pennsylvania

I do see your point and agree with it somewhat but you souldn't have to have a conceal carry permit just to take your gun to the range.

I agree.  I usually keep everything in the trunk, unloaded, separate from the ammo (which is in a locked ammo can), just to avoid the hassle.

That is, except for my carry piece.  That even skeeves them outm though.

I'm just surprised that there is not more uproar about having "eyes in the sky" that can get so up-close and personal...

just wait until people see them. out of sight out of mind...good ole MERICA!

[COndor06]

Just so no one gets the wrong idea, for our guys to deploy a drone, there has to be something pretty serious going on. I never had a situation where law enforcement used one of ours to spy on anyone.

This doesn’t mean the opportunity for abuse doesn’t exist (and I am sure some idiot will certainly take that advantage) but we only come into play (on the law enforcement side) when a swat team needs an extra eye, someone is missing in a wooded area at night, fugitive tracking, or a surveillance issue to help guarantee the safety of men on the ground apprehending a suspect.

As far as using it to spy on the general public, it’s just not a good platform as far as our aircraft are concerned. The real issue at heart is, while I was flying to find the lost person in the woods I saw a house in the distance with our FLIR system and it is obvious there are high intensity grow lights burning or you spot a crop of marijuana growing in the middle of a corn field and the farmer honestly doesn’t even have a clue its there.

Yeah, right buddy, tell it to the judge will be the last thing the farmer hears prior to posting bond.

In Texas you can carry a handgun in your vehicle without a CHL. The rules are the same as if you had a CHL.

  I live in the socialist republic of New Jersey where getting a CHL is next to impossible, getting handgun ammo impossible without a Firearms ID card (with required fingerprints). Defacto Gun Registration? Permits for buying a gun. Restrictions on gun types and clip capacity.
   We pay the price for the Third World Sewers they call cities in this state.

Does "in the vehicle" mean anywhere, or specifically in a "hidden" space such as a console, glove-box or on your person?  In PA, if you have a handgun anywhere in the vehicle, and it has live rounds in the magazine/cylinder (meaning not locked in a separate container than the weapon), it is considered "concealed"  This does not apply to rifles and shotguns

I would have to agree, you guys across the river are really screwed.

It has to be concealed..... not visible from the outside of the vehicle. It can be carried loaded. This was a change from a couple of years back as at that time the clip had to be seperate from the firearm.

Long guns can be carried anywhere. Folks no longer put them on gun racks in the truck windows as they would be stolen.

The more I hear about it, the more I feel like Texas is a place that I should move to
