    Let's see the guy has committed no crime, the officers claim somebody called because they were suspicious, they needed to see his ID so they could verify that he wasn't suspicious. If that isn't the description of a police state I don't know what is.

    I applaud the guy for sstanding up for his rights, I don't think he was impolite or being an a-hole. He even said he would show his id if they were giving him a summons.

    Good for him. Standing up for his rights which are almost gone. So close to being gone hardly anybody even knows what he is doing is legal.

    I have no problem with what this guy did. I fully support the open carry movement. It's BS that someone can be detained because someone else called the police on them because they are carrying a gun. It's our fundamental right.

    The more I think about this the more I believe this is like the civil rights movement of the 50's and 60's. This is a good thing. If some soccer mom wants to get her panties in a wad over me carrying a gun (no I don't open carry and probably never will), fine, but she won't be able to get the police to harass me.

    If this stuff ever gets a pass by SCOTUS, places like NY, Chicago and California are going to be so screwed, and I will be so damn happy about it. Nothing like sticking it to those GD statist so called liberals.

    You know, that's a good point... I think it about it more and more, and have only carried open maybe twice... I think back and realize I was a bit nervous about it the first time (more because people would look at me and see I'm armed and I'm not sure how they'd react), but that was silly of me. I should carry with pride and damn the man if they can't accept me practicing my RIGHTS. We take so many things for granted these days and this is one thing we should support 110%. If I get hassled by a cop, I won't be an asshole, I'll just politely tell him that I'm practicing my rights, not hurting a soul, and that he need not worry about what I may or may not do. If anything I'd be the first to help him in a situation, because 2 guns are better than one- although he'd probably tell me to not get involved and leave the area.

    I have zero problem with what the guy did. I would actually say, we have NO obligation not to be dicks to cops... Especially when purposely being harassed...

    we should all show up at/near polling places and report suspicious groups of people moving in and out of the buildings... it could be linked to Al-queda!

    First of all I respect police for the job they do, I wouldn't want to deal with people like they do but they are here to serve US, that's their job. This never should have hapenned in the first place. Also whom ever called the PD was ignorant and started drama over nothing. The guy open carrying was within his rights to open carry. Let's not make it complicated with a huge ethical debate. I would also say that if more people open carried this would not be an issue.

    Or if The cops would have come up and said "Hey, we got a call so we are just here to make happy."
