Just How Stupid Do They Think We Are?

Fits over at Shooting The Messenger mentioned the following article quoting assistant Lincoln Police Chief Jim Peschong. It is a testament as to just how stupid some of the "Only Ones" think free citizens are.

From Stereo AM 610, KCSR:

By Rachel Auble

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) - Law enforcement authorities are mulling how the state's new concealed handgun permit law could affect traffic stops.

Concealed weapon permit holders who get stopped are required to tell officers if they have their weapon concealed.

But assistant Lincoln Police Chief Jim Peschong says he's concerned some permit holders might forget what they're supposed to do and pull out their concealed weapon to show the officer.

That, he said, could elicit an unfavorable and dangerous reaction from police.
Heavy Sigh

"But assistant Lincoln Police Chief Jim Peckerhead says he's concerned some drivers license holders might forget what they're supposed to do and put their car in reverse, running over the officer."

I mean, that makes just as much sense, doesn't it?

Maybe I should have a contest to see who can come up with the best Pekerhead quote.
