I delivered here the day after. It was 5am, I'm with my hazards on looking for my door# and a yard jockey approached me, unhinged, saying you better not be creeping because of service hours. Cop's are everywhere, and he explained this story in detail. I calmly said, "Bro, it's 5 a.m., I just woke up, it's my first time here, and I'm looking for my door." He calmed way down and was like, "Oh, sorry, everyone is on edge since this happened.

There's a highway in Canada, B.C. I think that got a name because of all the indigenous women killed. It was believed to be because of truckers. There may be some truth to it. But of course it's not you OR me. 😉

Nero-Danteson@reddit

Truckers are thought of because of the fact that most are some level of mentally unstable, generally pretty antisocial and are very transient. The general public tends to ignore them unless they're in their way and can't really tell the difference between trucks. Easy enough for them to kill and dump the body somewhere off the highway and move on.

That's exactly what they said. Let's be honest. There's a reason why we drive a truck. Not exactly rocket surgeons curing cancer.

Not a prostitute, it was his girlfriend. This was in my in my hometown in Maryland in 2023. Dude delivered to a Costco distribution warehouse, and someone there called for a welfare check because he was acting erratically, damaging the inside of his truck. This is what happened when the cops showed up for the welfare check.

I get you. I'm not a trucker but I work in construction and appreciate you people. "Responsible gun owner" is an oxymoron to some and honestly, I understand why. There's no shortage of idiotic, hot-headed, or downright villainous people who fuck around with guns. 
View on Reddit #76642509

FilthyNasty626@reddit

Yep! I can't fucking stand those types. They give the rest of us law abiding gun owners a bad reputation. I've had open access to firearms since the age of 6. Grew up in a hunting family. Dad was a vet. So am I now. Never once has one of my guns grew legs, walked outside and blew a whole bunch of people away. Of course you have the reddit crowd saying I'm posturing. I'm really not. I want people to know it is legal to carry on a semi truck, to protect yourself. Can't tell you how many people over the years have said 'thats illegal it's interstate transportation of a firearm' or 'its against the fmcsr' yadda yadda. I talk about because I want drivers to know there is NO rule out there saying you can not carry on a truck. But, hey, you will always have a keyboard warrior that tries to deflect his own shortcomings onto another party.

He was REALLY trying to be calm and cool til he heard dead body, then he lost his shit. Lol. I live in Frederick County where this happened. Those are Frederick County sheriff's and I can say in my 50 years here, I have never had a negative interaction with them. From speeding all the way to being arrested, they were nothing but professional and courteous. I have found over the years that our local police follow the golden rule. They treat you the way you treat them. If you are respectful and don't do anything stupid they reciprocate.
