IT REALLY SUCKS WHEN COPS ARE TREATED LIKE LOWLY REGULAR PEON CITIZENS, EH???
/no sympathy
It’s just common sense, what with the rash of officer related shootings.
They might mistake someones cane for an assault rifle, or a wallet/pocketbook/purse as a satchel charge or something.
I don’t know which is worse, elected sheriffs being treated like the rest of us or that misplaced apostrophe in the title from a news station.
Oklahoma Statute Title 21 Section 1277

from this section when acting in the course and scope of employment within the courthouses of this state.
Private investigators with a firearms authorization shall be exempt from this section when acting in the course

No honor among thieves,etc,etc...
It is not quite as funny when your ox is the one getting gored is it?
Hard to believe that the journalist wrote the title as is with an apostrophe, showing the possessive tense. LOL!
They should defect to Texas! Anyone with a concealed carry license can carry in the Capitol! There are even 2 security lines, one for those with CHL’s and another for those without a CHL.
Did the Senator said he (or she) would “give his left nut” to disarm those cops?
Wow, what a coward...bitch about legally armed Sheriffs and not have the guts to tell them who it is...
In Texas, we’ve got a fast lane into the Capitol for CC’ers.
I’d be willing to make a $10,000 Romney type bet that I know the ploitical party of the “complainer”.
This is a good thing. The pols don’t even trust the cops anymore. They shouldn’t. They’ve earned the right to be afraid for their lives.
There are only 12 Dim Senators in the OK State Senate.

No name of this brave senator?
Why not?
Make your constituents proud Senator!
Find out who that Senator was, and campaign to have them impeached for abrogation of the 2nd amendment.
The feds always wanted us to disarm when going into federal court. I didn’t feel that the 200 pound, old geezers reading the paper at the doorway were up to the job of protecting everyone there prosecuting the Colombians or whatever other gang member we were trying, so I would give up my holster weapon and forget I had on my boot weapon.
Courthouse are just ripe for some nut job or worse to walk in and take out the two mindless security guys (usually older semi-retired guards) and wreak havoc. No better than a school.
