Let's say you're shopping at store(Walmart, Kroger, Sears..fill in the blank) and a LEO shows up to ask you the usual questions. Now mind you, no one in the store ever approached you. After you clear your good name by either complying with ID and such or doing your best to wash rinse repeat the LEO away...if the LEO tells you to leave, do you have to? I know what you probably should do...COMPLY! But legally, can a LEO tell you to leave private property under a trespassing charge if NO ONE else told you to leave prior? Are we supposed to take the LEO's word that the owner/agent asked us to leave? Sometimes another customer has made the 911 call and the owner/agent had no problem with you carrying. Are you disobeying an officers order by asking to verify this request with the owner/agent? What say you all?
