This is the part you left out:
and make up anything you need to arrest the individual so we can set an example for all the rest of the Open Carry scum bags that are flooding my city and taking away all of our glory. we are the only ones who should be able to carry guns and be able to defend ourselves from the rest of this peon society.
Absolute fabricated conjecture as you have no first hand case of this happening to an Open Carrier in Green Bay (false unjustified charges). This is probably the best memo we have seen so far. It is in line 100% with the AG memo.
You sure have some awesome dreams.
Says the man with no basis in reality for his conjecture.....
Well, outside the fact that I have been dealing with some legal beagle stuff this past week and have really gotten a front row view as to just how assanine the police can be. I am very confident in my conjecture.
Until you can prove me wrong there is no argument.
Prove me wrong. Strap up, holster up and carry on all over Green Bay and lets see the outcome. I don't mean just go to a few stores or restaurants. I mean go to places where you know for a fact that police officers frequent and lets see if they don't stop you, question you and try to find some way they can't arrest you for something.
If you don't get stopped or questioned by an officer or at least have one of them make an attempt, I would be highly surprised.
I don't know what your relation to LEO is but for some reason you seem to think you are above being stopped or questioned and any time someone suggests that this may happen you are quick to defend LEO.
It must be nice to have some type of inside connection and know you will never have any issues. Good for you.
But don't sugar coat anything for any of the newbies here. They all need to know the truth and that is the police are not your friends. they do not get paid to be your friend. In fact you might be lucky if you get a decent response or reception from one of them should you be open carrying. And that is because you are bursting their bubble. Taking away their glory. Stomping on their ego.
They are suppose to be the only ones to carry a firearm for self defense. Just ask them they will tell you.
Now lets look at reality. Don't talk to cops. In case you for get that I will say it again. Don't talk to cops.
I don't care what memo is put out. It doesn't mean that every officer will abide by it. they do not all abide by the AG memo and that holds more weight than the chiefs memo.
I use to think there was some way that we could all work together and educate the cops and the general public. We might be able to do something with the public but the cops have to big of egos to learn anything from us.
Just carry on and enjoy you rights but don't think for a minute that the cops are going to do you any favors. Might actually mean they would have to admit we were right about something.
