Threats like that hold no water. If you know the laws and are not breaking any, you can not get in legal trouble that will not be thrown out in court. Carry a recorder and some OC info packets with you and know WASH, WRINSE, REPEAT backwards and forwards.

Start OCing in small steps. Attend an OC event. There's a list of them on this site somewhere. Perhaps send the department another information packet.

I personally would not rely on one person's opinion that you would be arrested. Talk to the people here - we haven't had any members arrested for OC.

I'm far from ya on the east side but will be in Allen Park for Szerdi court date. Why dont you join us for lunch. Maybe we'll stop by their PD and drop off an LEO packet while OC'ing. The date is on the Szerdi thread.

When were you in Wyandotte? I wish I would have known, but then again I am new here. I would love to have another opportunity to help educate.

Set it up, they will come. Not every event has to have 20-30 people, four or five is great. Pick a time, day and place and set it in stone, intraweb stone.

Because a good share of the time they either do NOT know the law or pretend to not know it. Some of them like to discourage you from exercising your rights BC they feel it may make their job harder or BC they like flexing the badge.
