Meh, I have worked with many people in west berkeley for a couple decades and they always kept a loaded sidearm in the glove compartment. If you tell the cop if he pulls you over then its all good, nobody I know ever had any trouble ever.
As a matter of fact my boss caught somebody trying break into customers car and he opened fire. Because the cops had to respond they had to cite him for discharging in city limits, a ticket that the judge dismissed.
Same thing with a working stiff smoking a joint. If you are cool then nobody cares.
Live and let live, yep I like it here.
