Police find gun concealed in buttocks of Lafourche Parish man

I'm curious how this works. If your plan was to try to sneak a gun into jail and you knew you were about to get arrested, you could place the gun in its "holster" and be ready to try to sneak it in. But if the police arrest was unexpected, why are you driving around with a gun up your butt? Just in case? It could have been carried like that for months or years.

Good Question ^

Not sure I really want to know the answer. [hmmm]

However, prison time would only make someone with his proclivities even more dangerous, because when he gets out, he'll have been "conditioned" to carry a much larger gun.

I believe golden meadow is the speed trap capitol of the south. If you drive through, you are likely to get pulled over. And every oil rig worker going to port fourchon (foo-sean), which is one of the largest ports in LA, has to drive through. Lots of cops, lots of speed limit changes. And lots of oil rig workers with tricked out rides. Plus straight flat roads that go on forever.

I drove through there just now on Google Street View and it seems a lovely place to visit. Lots of cool stuff piled along the road, I suppose free for the taking:

I quickly got bored, but saw signs for 45 and 30 mph that seemed more or less appropriate based on what I could see.

Lots of WATER down there...

Yeah it’s mostly a 55 for the rest of the towns you pass through IIRC. Yes, the road surface is not far off the water. Most homes are jacked up on stilts. Lots of crap was washed up in random places from storms, too expensive to move it so there it sits. It’s a different world down there, and I really like their style.

Maybe this is what they mean by ‘coonass?’

It does look like a place where the ZBA leaves you alone. I do like that. But I suspect my line of work is not in high demand there. (I specialize in bikini waxing, female clientele only, so don't even think about it)

It's actually quite beautiful down there. The fishing is amazing and all the people I've encountered in that piece of the world are wonderful. They all open carried though...

I'm actually a bit surprised Wikipedia has an entry for it:
Coonass - Wikipedia

The old man from time to time has had to work with barge crews who were self-described Coonasses (is that the proper plural?)
 
In full disclosure I did cherry pick the view. Although a lot of the houses looked in need of repairs.
You should have posted one of a single wide trailer, up on stilts, with two brand new lifted and tricked out F350s parked outside, and a million dollar plus yacht docked next to it.

Also, truck stop casinos. And fried chicken sold at EVERY gas station!
 
How is gas station fried chicken? (Not that I could partake since I'm guessing they use wheat flour in their breading.)
I only tried it once, it was actually pretty darn good. I picked it up from a large gas station with a casino attached, so I don’t think it had been under the heat lights for very long. They are definitely experts at frying shit down in LA, there is no disputing that fact. I’m not a huge fries food guy, but I do love me an oyster poboy.

I will warn you, if you eat shrimp down there, you will never be able to eat frozen shrimp again. I am ruined.

Something that has taken some getting used to for me, is that there seems to be a completely different set of values placed on shelter the further south you go. Especially among what I would consider middle class. I suspect it has more to do with time spent indoors vs. out, and frequency of exposure to weather that drives that ratio, not on an individual level, but as a culture. Even up in the hills here where it's colder, I've often been shocker at the hovels that people wealthier than me live in. But that's just it, most of their living takes place on their boat, in the woods, or in their garden. The house is just a place to sleep or get out of the rain when it gets too heavy.

House-as-status-symbol is definitely A Thing up here. Hence the McMansion neighborhoods we have around us here in Connecticut.

Years ago, I discussed this phenomenon with my mentor. She noted that if you look inside these huge houses, you'll likely find very little furniture: they spent so much on the trophy house they can't afford to furnish it.

Or they don’t k ow how to clean and take care of it. You wouldn’t believe the huge homes I see that could be beautiful inside but are just shotholes with nary the most basic mainteance kept up with. To each their own.

By mass standards my house is probably redneck, but it’s clean and normally tidy....with the often exception of the kids play room.

Same as anything in a gas station. If you see them put it out, its pretty good. Believe it or not, there is a chain down here known for it's chicken, Brothers Market. Bunch of Middle Eastern families that have the market cornered, but they put out some good chicken around noon.
