I hope Jeff Garvas gets lots of email regarding his article.
Quoted from the OFCC,
"A common interaction with a law enforcement officer involves a person going about their business while armed when an officer approaches and (often after asking the person what they are up to and why they have a gun) asks for identification, or asks the person to provide name, address and/or date of birth. Under these facts, the person does not appear to have an obligation to respond. However, I question whether this is the best approach unless the person desires involvement with the legal system, in which case it is a very good approach. I, for one, think the street corner is a poor place to engage in a debate about the law. The officer wants to clear the call and move on. The citizen, in most cases, has other things to do as well."
1. "A common interaction with a law enforcement officer involves a person going about their business while armed when an officer approaches and (often after asking the person what they are up to and why they have a gun) asks for identification, or asks the person to provide name, address and/or date of birth."
Makarov: Open carrying a firearm performing ones own business is not a crime. If your have an interaction with a police office, started by them, they are looking RAS. To me its non of their business what im doing with a gun holstered on me.
2. "However, I question whether this is the best approach unless the person desires involvement with the legal system, in which case it is a very good approach."
Makarov: I think it is a great approach!!!! What!!! Resist to protect liberty. The police should be put in their place. We obey the law but they cant? They can lie...but we cant?
3. Best approach for Law enforcement to obey the law and leave us alone.
