HCSO Gets My Vote

I have recently got my license (October 08) and had just started carrying when I bought my S&W M&P 40C last month. I have always wondered what would happen with an encounter with a LEO. I have read stories about traffic stops, some saying tell the LEO but most stating to keep your mouth shut. I had my first encounter with them yesterday. My wife and I had been witnesses to some domestic violence that happened in a local Publix parking lot. Women was beating crap out of husband if you can believe it. My wife called 911 to report the incident. Persons started to leave so we followed in our car at a distance until LEO could pull them over. We had stopped to see if they needed a witness or statement as to what happened, (did not want man to go to jail when women was beating his : censored. There were 4 LEO that had stopped and non had noticed I was carrying until LEO asked for my I.D. I have my CWP right next to my DL so there is no way for me to show 1 with out the other. All LEO asked was if I am carrying "right now". I stated "yes sir I am". He said that's nice to know, handed me back my license and told me to have a nice day. I believe that is the way it ***SHOULD*** happen, but with all the stories not sure it would actually work out that way. I have to say I was suprised about how relaxed he was about it. :drinks
