In 2009, Taurus850cia, his sister, and myself signed and dropped off a complaint that I wrote about the misconduct and slander involving about half a dozen OCSD deputies wrongfully detaining us at what I call the Troy Boston Market debacle. In response, Sheriff Bouchard had his staff come up with sweeping new protocols for their agency, and sent the info out to all other county sheriffs departments in Michigan with the request that they send the info out to all the agencies within their counties. And that was the beginning of open carry being respected by honest cops in Michigan. For what it's worth, sheriff Bouchard would go on to out himself as a bill of rights hating thug when 1st amendment audited several years ago, but I still give him credit for what he did for us.
After we dropped off the complaint at Sheriff Bouchard's office, we went over to the Gander Mountain across Telegraph. I bought myself a Hawaiian shirt for if I remember right 7 bucks. I still have it, so today I wore it to breakfast while OCing. And I will say, Tucson is awesome for OCing. There are so many armed people here, and everyone knows OC and CC are rights that don't require licenses, so I never get challenged on it.
