The only time a cop ever pulled a gun out when I got pulled over was when I made that mistake.
I was up against the car spread eagle before I knew what was happening.
I think they perceive getting out and approaching them as hostile now.
I see your point there. ;-)
“Everyone who has a CCW knows the first thing you do is put both hands on the steering wheel or the dashboard and inform the police officer you have a CCW. Its the law folks!”
I’ve have two LEO contacts while carrying concealed in two different states (Arizona & Tennessee). In both cases I told the officer that I was armed and had my CCW license with me (even though neither AZ nor TN has a duty to inform law). Both times the officers said “no problem” and didn’t even ask me to see my CCW. Both contacts were very positive and nobody got shot...happy endings.
I saw what you did. :-)
I can only speak for Ohio CCW. But actually, it’s common sense.
I’m still ready to listen for more information. All we have to go by is the woman’s post-shooting video and her claim that this was a traffic stop for a broken taillight.
Sure did seem to be a lot of other police officers with curb-parked cruisers already present on the scene just moments after the shooting with no evidence they were still arriving to an officer-involved shooting.
This is starting to look like a concerted felony stop.
Disturbing video. Hope we get the full story.
I withhold full judgement on these incidents until more is known.
Nevertheless, the woman in the video is obviously traumatized. How terrible to see someone killed in front of you....pray for all involved.
And hope the opportunists are kept at bay.
No shit sherlock
He told the cop his l and r was in his wallet AND was licensed and is carrying.
How do you produce a license and reg in your wallet with out reaching for it
He did all the right stuff
The cop is a murderer
until more is known
Not much more to know
The woman admitted on her Facebook video stream that they were trnasporting marijuana in the vehicle.
Jail for life hopefully. There was no threat to the cop at all. Cop thought he was in the wild Wild West. A disgrace.
That is not what has been shown on video. What was shown on video was the woman SAYING that is what happened.....unless you have seen something else, all I have seen is the aftermath of the shooting.
Bull crap.
So what.
Cop didn’t know that all cop knew was they had a broken taillight.
Cops a murderer
Good point.
My guess is that the cop didnt hear or believe he had a CCL, so when he moved toward the gun he started firing. That or the witness’ account is false.
That gets him off of the planting evidence accusations.
What about the video where the cop tells him to show him his ID after he tells the cop he has a concealed carry permit?
