Very good on the law. Could have been more polite and professional towards the officer even if he did set it up. Tone of voice not quite right indicating hostility. Should have given first name and been nice and then stated the facts. Overall...good demonstration of the law.

However, not good to carry any handgun openly anywhere especially in this day and time unless one is an officer. Just not wise.

Bull Crap.... to the 10th degree.

Twice I have avoided being shot (one incident) and the other time it prevented possible harm to me and my dog because the person complained that my dog was on on a leash while her (and her whimp husband) had about 15 dogs of which only two were on a leash.

I now carry my pistol virtually everywhere I go.

Know your rights and do not be pressured or intimidated into willingly forfeiting or self-censuring your own freedoms.

Ah, so his correctness/incorrectness or guilt/innocence is determined by tons of voice?

There are people who will dismiss your argument if you are enthusiastic/excited, as if any emotion invalidates your position... and there are those who will dismiss the "calm cool"/dispassionate tone as being uninvolved/detached.

Obviously there is no way that one can disagree in a legitimate fashion.

Slide on over to DU where you belong. You are so full of your ignorant self; lecturing on how this guy should not exercise his rights. Rights not exercised are rights lost.

I couldn’t disagree with you more on every point. We will not retain our rights by tip-toeing around them. He was as polite as the situation called for, showed no hostility and there is no “conversation on a person to person basis” happening when an officer of the law stops you in the course of his duties and disarms you. Everything you do and say and everything the officer does and says is strictly a legal matter.

No, no, no. The Office must establish the valid reason for the stop.
