Your First and Second Paragraph do not add up.
Most of the interactions (being threatened with death, false arrest, etc) were before I moved out here.... Most of the issues happened back there...

No. A year and a half carrying in the open with no issues with LEO (thanks to gray, deros, spydertattoo, mainsail, triggerdr, et al)
No. No resentment, no animosity, nothing...
I have a healthy regard for LEO....
I also have a healthy regard for myself, the truth and my way of life...
Therefore, I am cautious around LEO, naturally suspicious of there behavior and motive.
so i follow orders
That's a familiar sounding phrase.
Personall I think it is a LE's obligation to tell these politicians you will not enforce unconstitutional laws.You are sworn to unhold the Constitution not the wims of anti gun liberal politicians.
Thats one of those spineless copout mentalities .I suppose if some politician told you to kick down doors because of a BS emergency and confiscate peoples guns like NEw Orleans you would just follow orders.You are supposed to serve the public not the politicians.

Whatever....
I don't need to cop out. I just need to show my boys that no matter what you do in life you always give it your best. Just like my father taught me.
I wonder if you would think I'm such a cop out if I was to pull your mother, wife, or kids out of a burning car. Like I've done for folks before. I could save your family, or I could choose not to. Your suggesting I should be the kind of person that would choose not to. Thats not me. Those are the bad LEO's. The guys who do what they want instead of what they are supposed to. I don't try to interpret the law, my job is to enforce it. It's really that simple.
(m&P w/ CT grip)
How do you like the CT on your M&P?
I like it a lot, thanks. I have one on my PPK/s also.
I have a family to feed just like everyone else. I can't quit my job and start over as a security guard and still expect to be able to send my three kids to college. Its just a job, and enforcing the laws that the politicians make is just my job description. That is the extent of the LEO's role. Your anger is misplaced. Like I stated before, the folks making all these dumb laws are being elected. You should blame the politicians or maybe even the voters. Im just doing my job. A lot of folks have jobs they don't love, but they have obligations, and they have pride, so they do what they have to.
Im a LEO in NYS, which, you all know, has the dumbest gun laws going. Everyone needs to remember that LEO's only enforce the laws. Its the politicians that the voters elect, that make the laws. I don't agree with every law in the state, but I have a job to do, and I want to do it well, so i follow orders. I think that is all it really comes down to with most LEO's. We just want to do a good job at work, we take pride in the job that we do, just like everyone else.........
LEOs are permitted to lie, are they not? They make up laws, sometimes plant evidence, and generally act like the perps and predators that they encounter - which is somewhat understandable - but the problem is they act like predators to civilians. They no longer 'Protect and Serve', and as we've found out lately, there is no duty to protect the individual, just the 'public good', whatever that is.
