Hi I'm joe, I'm up in Reno.
For a while I've youtubed OC and wanted to try it. Well today I finaly got the gusto.
I walked virginia street with my .40 for about 20 minutes before police interaction. I saw them coming! Right under the arch one cruiser 45* angle parked to block traffic and 3 more cruisers behind me.
So out comes the camera.
At the same time I'm running a scanner and hear one of the officers say "he's a youtuber, don't take the bait" the door of the cruiser closest to me opens up, notices the iPhone, shuts his door and high tailed it outta there. I got that on film but then when I went to film the other officers I had my finger on the lense. Darn it! Anyhow the immediately flipped u turns and split. I walked up and down for about an hour after that. I had a couple of thanks and one "can you do that?" And that was all I went home.
Having felt emboldened by this first experience I decided to take my motorcycle out and do the same thing. Wouldn't you know it, at virginia and n McCarran I pull side by side to RPD transporting some crook to jail. We made eyes, he saw it for sure and didn't say a word. I went left, he went straight and that was that.
Then I went to Walmart and bought a few items. I think I scared a kid a little but not too much fuss other than the first "swat" style roadblock runaway officers.
I get it now, we need to desensitize the public to good guys with guns.
