I lived in Az and its open carry.
Im now in Texas. I sure wish Texas was open carry.

My brother freaked out in Az “why is everyone wearing a gun” he said while deep in cougar and bear country L0L

Very interesting video. Good job knowing your rights and stating them in a respectful manner to the officers.

Very good video and you are to be commended for the calm manner in your dealings with the local LEO's.
Unfortunately, the gentleman in the stripped shirt and name tag reminded me of a wacko lib with his baiting actions in this incident. He needs to calm down and stop with the wise-cracks. Its the same inciteful behavior the leftists use. Its does no good for the educational process you are attempting re:the open carry issue. Good Luck!

For a minute I thought open carry was the same as open container. I’d prefer those with open containers not open carry.

Unbelievable! the cops stop this guy. basically hold him hostage then cite him for blocking the flow of traffic when its the cops who created the blockage!

You handled that perfectly. The guy with the beard could learn from your behavior.

I have to laugh. Here in Tx I got pulled over on the way to the gun range for a seatbelt violation. There in the van were some AK 47s, a FN FAL,several pistols.

The cop never gave them a second glance.
She was only interested in the seatbelt violation.
Never even asked about the firearms

your "friend" really does you and your cause a disservice. why intentionally try to escalate the situation. in my experience, police will know when they are dealing with a law-abiding citizen. those cops were professional and seems to me they might have simply apologized for wasting all 4 minutes of your time and moved on.

imho, broadcasting your interaction and having your buddies come over and begin yelling nonsensical insults made the situation what it eventually became. i support your cause. people like you should have legal guns, and criminals should not have illegal guns.

one other question: when you have your meetings in the bar, do you all open carry? do you all drink?

In Mississippi the police will ask you all kinds of questions...

“How’s she shoot”?

“Can I see that”.

“How much did it cost you”?

“What kind of ammo does it like”?

“Do you think I could shoot it sometime”?

I do have a few police friends, however.

Good job educating the uninformed in uniform concerning the law.

I hope you don’t end up facing some adrenaline saturated badge jockey who decides your cell phone looks too much like a Glock and lets muscle memory take over.

The chance of an “accident” ending your career as an educator is real and should be considered seriously every time you belt on your holster.

Stay safe.

As a former cop. I would have arrested, after two warnings, the guy in the striped shirt for interfering with an officer. You will do better the leave him home.

I support the 2nd amendment as much as anyone. But in the game of real world politics, carrying as an attempt to “educate” I think is more likely to backfire and result in the end of open carry.
