I could not find this in searching, but I apologize if this has been discussed previously:
When contacted by the police for open carry, what and how much should I say? I know that under most circumstances (interrogations, traffic stops), a person should remain silent. Should I inform the officer that I am within my rights, ask for his supervisor, or smile while being disarmed because of the amazing civil suit that I have on my hands? Will officers let me record any encounters, or will they tell me to put it away? I realize that a lot of officers are not understanding of the laws, so would enlightening their ignorance only fall on the deaf ears of the already "informed?"
Thank you.
