Much of this over-reaction can be laid at the feet of “polezei locus”.
In Michigan, open carry is legal. Not long ago, my neighbor had a visitor from Indiana with a belt-holstered Glock-9.
Me, (not being reactionary), wondered whether the visitor needed to identify to the local constabulary, so I called the DPS. DPS told me that it is considered a professional courtesy to do so.
Next thing I know, the local DPS showed up next door, tackled the guy and just summarily “abused” him (they used GPS locationing from my house phone).
Although I felt somewhat responsible, I did not expect such an over-reaction.
Maybe next time, I’ll just go ask the gun-owner about his weapon and leave DPS out of it..
Congratulations.
You just SWATED your neighbors visitor.
Good grief!
