Having a ccw has no relevance on whether they get a ticket or not from me.

I do ask everyone I stop if they have a weapon in the car. But I have to phrase it as "without reaching for it, do you have any weapons in the car?"

Reminds me of when I worked for a bank call centre. "Now don't tell me your PIN number, but do you still remember what it" - "OH SURE MY PIN IS 1234". Even when I worded it as carefully as I could, there was always inevitably that one person who would manage to blurt it out.
