The Usual Excuse Won't Work Here

First of all, learn HOW to carry concealed so it doesn't fall out of your pants.

Secondly, make sure your CCL is current.

The Washington County Sheriff's Office has referred criminal charges against a county supervisor who allegedly concealed a gun illegally at a March 9 board meeting.

Supervisor Timothy Michalak, who is also Hartford's mayor, allegedly did not have a valid concealed carry permit when the gun in question dropped from his waistband....

Umnnnnh.  That's embarrassing.

...State law states that people with a valid concealed carry permit can carry firearms in government buildings. However, they cannot carry them in public safety buildings, such as a sheriff's office. People who don't have a concealed carry permit cannot have a concealed gun in any government building.

The investigation found, according to the sheriff's office, that Michalak's permit had expired at the time of the incident....

Oh.  The renewal costs almost nothing, by the way.

So how does Mayor Michalak explain this?

...Michalak implied that, as an elected official, he thought he was exempt from the law and could have his gun inside police departments and the sheriff’s office....

Not a smart move.  You're not Hunter Biden, pal.
