I always treat LEO with respect, and I think that goes a long way with the relationship. I also find myself being extra polite to others while carrying (being an ambassador maybe?)
I agree, this deputy did not overstep his bounds here. I had a commendation letter written and ready to go for another "e" check by Santa Clara County Sheriffs that only took 20 seconds. That letter was never mailed. Two things changed my mind.
1. The day before the letter was to be dropped in the mail box I was confronted by another deputy from the same department, he made attempts to be friendly in his conversation only to get me to incriminate myself. He also threatened that I was "under investigation and that they were trying to get a warrant (for what I never found out). As advised by my attorney I posted nothing about the encounter. Instead the Sheriff got a letter from my lawyer.
2. Any contact I have with bureaucrats is a waste of my productive time. Compliance is very important to them, they're willing to kill over it. I feel like writing a letter praising them for "not jacking me up too bad" is just validating their position and is compliance on my part for participating.
I will not support any "service" provided at the point of a gun. Where, when, why and how did these armed men/women dress in costumes, doing-business-as Santa Clara Sheriff's deputies gain jurisdiction over me? Can they produce a contract that I entered into with them where I relinquish my rights? I don't think they can, so they only exist through coercion, threats of violence, actual violence visited on people, and our participation in the entire scam.
(not leo bashing here) I support Police that investigate crimes with real victims (the "state" of California can not be a victim) and prosecute criminals that victimize. My activities have no victim, and so I will not praise them for only harassing me a little bit.
