Seeking advice on unlicensed loaded carry

[badicedog]

My co worker just told me that she bought a gun and was being forced to carry it by her boyfriend. I asked her for details since she is a good friend of mine and I didn't want her to get into any legal troubles. Apparently her boyfriend is LEO and the gun in question is his. I advised my friend not to do it since she does not have a CCW permit. I just wanted to make sure I gave her correct advice. Any peace officers that can chime in would be greatly appreciated. Please no LEO bashing, thank you in advance.

well, if she gets caught with it he will help her out. So, i say it "legal" because her LEO bf said its ok

I would assume that she'd be fine with it, and unless she did something hard core, I doubt she'd even get pulled over in his town.

Did she buy the gun or is the gun her boyfriend's?

what she is doing is illegal and I would have to recommend that she does not break the law. That said, if caught, I highly doubt that she would be cited unless she was caught by DFG

It belongs to the boyfriend.

Thanks for all the great input. Wow, I guess I was wrong. I was just concerned that if she was caught with it might jeopardize her RN license...

Why wouldnt it? If the cops look the other way, yeah I guess not, but if she gets hooked up for carrying without a permit, I imagine 'my boyfriend told me too' is not going to fly in front of a judge. It might implicate and impact his career too.

Do you think you can get or keep or nursing job on probation for a weapons charge? Of course more power to her if she can get away with it. I wish the police would 'look the other way' for my wife, mother and sister.... We live in a corrupt and foul state.

This was/is my logic! I completely agree, it wouldn't fly for my wife or for me...

[SanPedroShooter]

Well like I said, more power to her if she can get away with it. It may put her (and him) in a sticky spot if she has to use it. I mean I assume the guy is just a beat/patrol cop and its not even his wife... Is he going to arm every person he is related to? He cant swing any influence to get her a permit? Maybe I should make more cop friends. All the LE guys I know have this aversion to breaking the law....

Whew! She lives in San Francisco.

Wow, a lot of bad advice in this thread. It's illegal. Penal Code does not have an "unless your boyfriend told you to do it" exception.
