How an open carry encounter goes in Oregon...

[SickofSoCal]

Lasts about 3 nanoseconds. Keep in mind these facts:

1. They are very young

2. They were at an Albertsons

3. He had both a rifle and a handgun

4. Notice that the cops are very well-informed (as opposed to Commiefornia)

5. Notice that no 4th Amendment, or attempted 4th Amendment violations took place

6. Share your thoughts on what you think would have happened in California

I could tell you what would have happened in Fullerton

I could tell you what would have happened in Fullerton

Would it end in tragedy?

This UOC is a forking moron, just trying to provoke the cops. Right out of the gates demanding credentials? Really? STFU dude. How does that help anyone's cause?

Handled greatly by the LEO.

That's my point - the LEO's were not like they are here. He was asking for trouble. He's lucky. Lucky to be alive really.

Is this California cop bashing?

[safewaysecurity]

The kids were douches kinda. They always want to start things of in a hostile manner. The officers did a good job.

" Lucky to be alive really."

The kid's a douche but the way you phrased this implies you think he had a shooting death coming his way. I'm sure you meant something else.

If this was California, SWAT would be coming out guns blazing. Everyone would call and scream man with a gun etc. etc. and then Rosie Ol Donald will come out and scream some anti-gun crap. Doing what they did in Oregon would very very bad here.

[dieselpower]

handled well by all.

Civilian:
Asked for credentials up front. Good call. He knew what the answer was going to be, but he asked.

He Shut up when asked to.

He voiced his opinion

He complied with LAWFUL directions.

Officer:
Took charge of situation.

Kept side issues to a minimum

Directed civilian to go on his way.

To anyone who says they were punks... Rosa Parks was an old fat black female punk too then. She told the Officers who asked her to get in the back of the bus to STFU and just do whatever they wanted to her, she was not scared nor was she going to move on her own power.

Some times in order to get the laws changed, or at least applied equally to the citizens, you have to piss Officers off. You have to challenge their authority. You have to be a punk.

*rolls eyes*

Those cops handled things well.

The kids are douchebags. There was no need for them to act that way.
