Law Enforcement Data System or commonly known as LEDS is a statewide police computer system run by the Oregon State Police, this system is what the dispatcher runs your name through when you get stopped, when they enter your name in the system and you have a CHL, it comes up when the permit was issued, what SO issued the permit, when it expires, and any other information regarding it.
To the second statement regarding the officer,
I was happy with the officer, and he was quite friendly. He did give a point of view, not editorialize, when he stated how he would respond to calls like this.
Although I may disagree, I listened and felt good about how he said it. He wasn't Goddy, wasn't trying to lecture me, just sharing how he feels, and I listened without causing an argument. He was fairly eloquent and well spoken, but you could tell he just wasn't the type to support open carry. I was glad that he emphasized that I was absolutely not doing anything wrong, he was happy that I listened, but as I said, he definitely didn't want to lecture me.
That's what I was referring to, hopefully it didn't come off as negative banter.
ps I apologize for the double post, I was going to copy & paste the two quotes together but forgot before I sent.
