So I went to Smiths on Eastern and Windmill to get some orange juice around 3pm. I shop there all the time. On my way out one of the cart guys stopped me and said be careful because he thinks someone called the cops on me. I walk out and a metro squad car is parked right outside with two cops sitting in it. One female and one male. They both exit the car as I walk towards my car and initiate a stop.
Female cop: Excuse me sir can we speak to you for a second?
At this point a million things go through my mind. I can turtle up and say nothing, I could ask for RAS or PC for this stop and ask if I'm free to go or play it cool.
Me: umm ok.
Female cop: We got a call about a man with a gun and came to check it out.
Me: ok
Female cop: I guess someone got scared when they saw your firearm.
Me: ok
Male cop: Yeah people don't know this is an open carry state.
Me: ok
Female cop: Well we wanted to make sure you weren't a crazy person. Have a nice day sir.
Me: ok
I must say i really love Nevada. Coming from California I could never dream about an encounter when the cops are called that doesn't result in eating pavement let alone not even being asked a single question about my identity, intentions, or actions.
