Should We be Confronting Law Enforcement Over Open Carry?
"Recently it seems the floodgates have opened. A new day means a new video where civilians and law enforcement are clashing over open carry. I have mixed feelings over these encounters. I am completely in the corner of citizens exercising their Constitutional rights to the fullest. After all, that is why they are called rights and not privileges."

There was no discussion capability's on the page, I think it is a great conversation. I must say that it seems there is a bit of a "bias" here, but I am not certain it is intentional. The author states "Other states such as Nebraska, Ohio, Texas, North Carolina and Utah have laws that require any permit holder to immediately provide their permit and photo ID whenever they have an “official encounter” with a law enforcement officer." The laws he cites pertain to old fashioned conceal carry, as the laws are tied to the permit. He most certainly in not suggesting that because you carrying openly, that you somehow are subject to the laws as a concealed carrier, Right?
Also the title seems to be defunct at best. I have never seen a open carry situation where the OC'er initiated contact with the Police.
