Why do people have to make problems?

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

Exactly

Post teens playing 'look I've legally got a gun'. This is exactly how NOT to deal with LEOs when they ask you about it, and you should expect they ask you about it, its their job.

But, OTOH, second amendment, and lots of cops don't like common folk with guns, so.... neutral.

It's time to get defensive if and when the LEO might push the issue beyond a reasonable measure and asking for ID isn't it.

Asking for and ID for no other reason then the fact the person is open carrying in a place where it is legal, in and of it self is infringing on that persons rights. I would have to say ANY time a persons rights are infringed on in any way (even if slightly) is a good time to get defensive.

I feel stopping me to see my ID because i am carrying a gun to "be sure im not a felon" is about as offensive and out of line as it would be to stop me for ID as I carry my child to be sure im not sex offender.

Welcome, and please post in the new member sign in... as for your logic, spot on! I would get on the defensive a bit too if a LEO asked for my ID when he doesn't need to (pretty much anything that isn't a traffic stop).
