[EM2]

Here in Fresno County, notification is strictly voluntary.
In fact our instructor advised us to be careful if in a CCW unfriendly county such as SF. There are a great many LEOs who have never seen a CCW and in some places do not know they are legal.
Now that being said, I do appreciate all of the advice and situational descriptions, and will take these in consideration if I should have any LEO contact.
I do believe however that it should not be mandatory and that each individual should have the descretion to notify or not.
I am still unsure how notification goes toward officer safety??? If I am stopped by an officer and have my firearm with me I am no more a theat to his safety than without my firearm. I could understand the argument for notification for the safety of the CCW holder perhaps.
