Last night I went to the Redondo pier which is covered by the City of DesMoines PD. There was a lot of people down there this night.
Anyways... all was fine. Went out on the pier just to relax and watch the sunset. On my way back to my Truck, two LEO's rolled up and one said Hi, I waved back. He asked me how I was doing, I said fine. He told me he was just checking as someone had called in and people are just not used to seeing others OC. He said he knows of another up on the Highway99 that OC ( Derso72 ). We talked a bit. I extended my hand to shake his and he , shook it without hesitation. This officer was more than professional. I walked to my truck, they left before I did. I am sure there where a lot of people that just went, uh? no arrest? End of story.
Since this is my first face to face LEO encounter since OC for about 1 year now where I was actually the one called on it was in need of posting. I think more positive encounters will generate more positive responses. Now if we can just train the general population about OC we would all be fine.
Never got out of his car, Never asked for ID, Never asked for CWL.:celebrate
