This video is a little long, but it gives some examples of the types of contact officers make all over the country with all types of people.

The issue doesn't have to be "open carry."

Some people want contact with LE. Some people only post the bad contact they have with officers because it fits their agenda. Some people (like the last contact in the video) actually post the good contact. There are other videos available on the Internet documenting good contact. I wish there was more. Both the good and the bad videos make good training aids for officers.

Their are hundreds of thousands of laws and millions of citizens dealing with tens of thousands of LEOs. Math makes my head hurt, and probability of getting everything right given the numbers of variables just makes me happy when everyone walks away without any serious injury.

IMO, the greatest violation of Constitutional rights is to unlawfully deprive a citizen of their life.

Be safe.
