some of them think if they were the badge they make the rules,instead of enforcing them

Send his superior a letter and inform him of the situation. Tell him how it ruined your night and scared your family. Officers are put in place to protect and serve, not make up rules and dictate. I know many many awesome LEOs, but it seems they are becoming few and far between now :( unless we just only hear stories of the bad ones.

He is in his own little world with his tight shirt. I think people wearing tight shirts are just as bad as people wearing long baggy *. How much of an idiot are you to not know your own clothes size. Especially a uniform...he thinks he's in a fashion show and no one can't tell him otherwise because he has authority.

I know you are trying to make light of the situation, but I think this thread has enough personal attacks, and is probably best left to die unless the OP has an update on the situation.

It is unfortunate that the Police Officer acted the way he did, but personally attacking him over and over is a bit immature. We can defend our rights without belittling someone. He might visit this website some day, and some of these posts would not change his mind about how he handled the situation.

I respectfully disagree with your post as you guessed some would. I, like you, cc because I don't like anyone else knowing I'm carrying. I don't believe though, that a law abiding citizen should be harassed by anyone especially a LEO just because he doesn't like a legal weapon being shown. It's legal, even if you don't like it, it's his right as a free "licensed" citizen.
