Let's just say this interaction didn't go so well.
Sadly, I was let down by my city's Police department in terms of their severe lack of professionalism, knowledge on Openly Carrying (one of the initial detaining officers threatened to charge me with 12025 (g) before letting me go), and respect for my civil liberties.
There were a number of miss-steps by the Police department (note, this was not the OC Sheriff's department).
I am awaiting a more detailed response from legal council.
And no, I am not seeking personal monetary damages (ie, money check).
Ironically, even though the officers feigned ignorance, the first question I was asked was "What movement are you with?!"
If you would like more details I will be glad to share what I am allowed to. It may not be until after some time, though.
Good news:
The girlfriend were sent on our way after about an hour and a half. Possessions returned to me, and only some slight bruising from the shiny bracelets.
