I'm not sure what my question is really. But I was searching youtube videos last night before bed and found many from NH where people who were legally carrying were temporarily detained by law enforcement. They were questioned because of concerned bystanders and ultimately let go because.....they didn't do anything unlawful.
I just started wondering how this relates to someone walking down the street with a Pit Bull on a leash. I love dogs and love Pit Bulls so it wouldn't bother me. However some people may feel fearful and concerned that there is such a breed walking down their street.
What is the liklihood that if I called the cops on someone walking such a dog that the cops would drive out there, follow the dog owner, stop him/her, question their intentions and ask them to take the dog inside because people felt threatened?
I don't suggest that owners SHOULD have to keep their dogs inside. I just see a parallel, don't really have any direction with it at this point but thought it was interesting.
