Open carry patriot confounds police

[Elhuero]

A man open carrying in ME is stopped by police and thwarts their attempts to curtail his rights.

Audio only, about 12 min long. A good way to kill a few minutes.

I understand both sides of the story..... so I have nothing to say, lol. <--Post Whore.

General section is fine in my opinion...

I still think its hysterical that most people don't understand its is legal in most states to open carry.

I think he handled himself better than expected. Of course he was 100% correct. Most people wouldn't have stood their ground on principle, however.

Good for him.

I think it's sad that most people have a negative reaction when they encounter a firearm! lol.

I agree, I also find it funny that cops never know how to react when a citizen actually knows the laws.

But like I said earlier, I understand both sides of the arguement so I can see why the cops wanted to name and know why he walking around and blah, blah....

YOU, In The Car... what are you doing?
We've had reports that someone was driving a car in the area.
Sir, are you aware that THOUSANDS of people are killed every year with Cars?
We are going to detain you for possession of a car in a Public space and reckless endangerment. You might have killed someone with your car.

Just highlights that MOST Americans ARE Generally Stupid.
Operation of a motor vehicle on public roadways is NOT a right.
Carrying a firearms IS!

Sounds like the makings of a good bumper sticker!

I like how when the officer asked what the buldge in his pocket was he said it was a copy of the constitution

"What statute is suspicious activity?" Laws and RIGHTS sure do slow down police work sometimes.

Nice post!
