Rolemodel Cop Finds Gun, Remains Calm

"On a related point...where was this fellow that he didn't need to produce a Carry License which, ostensibly, would have had his name somewhere on it?"

Many states that allow Open carry, allow this without any type of authorization or license. Only Concealed carry requires "permission" in some of these states. see below

Rolemodel Cop Finds Gun, Remains Calm

possom says...

Consider that he is a Marine (if true). Weigh this in the circumstances... he has likely been in service and openly carried. We have no idea what he has been through. We have no idea how he views the possibility of unforeseen threats now that he is back. He may have been almost killed several times in his life, and is now choosing to lawfully do his best to ensure it doesnt happen at home.

Also note the gun was NOT loaded. There was no magazine in or a round in the chamber. This could be because he intended to instigate a confrontation with LE but did not want the gun loaded. This is RESPONSIBILITY. Note the manner in which the officer handles an gun he is NOT FAMILIAR with (he asks what is it, how to manipulate it) while pointing the muzzle at bypassing traffic and in the direction of his fellow officer.

You can discuss and doubt the general public's responsibility in this type of open carry situation, but in fact the carrier was behaving very responsibly, more so than the officer, in the storage and handling of the weapon.

This man knows how to safely handle a firearm and knows his rights (quoting statutes during the interview). Calling him a doucehwhatever is very short-sighted.

Cop Threatens Execution After Concealed Weapon Found

Rolemodel Cop Finds Gun, Remains Calm

The reason the officer is asking for his ID and name are because he has to file a report on the incident. He will be recording only "Jeremy" on that report. Jeremy should not give his ID or full name to the officer if he is not being arrested, or unless it servers "jeremy's interests" (for example, if he was pulled over for being in a stolen car, but the car is registered to him.. fully identifying himself may prevent him from being arrested for a crime he has not committed). There is no benefit to him fully identifying himself to the officer. There could be consequences for his identity being filed away in police records.

this video is a true testament to the knowledge and respect of law on both sides. Props to "jeremy" for excercising his rights, and to the officers for knowing his rights.

Shuac, how do you expect someone to record their right being denied after it's already happened? And what's deceitful about walking around doing something that you're allowed to do? Also, no, it's not necessary to do something because you can do it. So what? He didn't have to present his ID. He didn't.

I'm not objecting to the video being taken. I'm objecting to this guy's agenda. Capice?
The other point I was making was this: given the way the cop was behaving what, exactly, would be the harm in producing ID? Show me another cop acting differently, and I'll give you another answer. But THIS cop in THIS video? ...no, there's no reasonable justification to deny producing I.D. other than to be a tool and to serve his little video presentation. I can almost hear him thinking, "Gee this isn't going so well...this cop is far too calm making for a boring 4th amendment rights video...hmm, maybe if I tell him I'm not going to produce I.D. then he'll get riled up...oh, I hope I hope I hope!"
Douche canoe, pure & simple.
On a related point...where was this fellow that he didn't need to produce a Carry License which, ostensibly, would have had his name somewhere on it?

Rupert Murdoch Pie to the Face

What amuses me is that "hacking cell phones" has turned out to be "guessing voicemail passwords". I bet most of their information was gained by entering 1234 or 1111 into people's voicemail. Hacking? Stupid cell phone users for sure.

Thats a really shitty video, I dont see any pie. If there is a different angle I would replace it, this doesn't show anything. They could all have been high fiving.


To my knowledge, there was only one camera in the room. I was watching live as it happened, and have seen on the news since. I don't think you will see another angle unless someone happened to be recording with their phone.
