Yea i listened to the audio....whats your point? the leo specificaly told him he didnt know who he was or why he was carrying a firearm. Anybody with any kind of common sense can understand the leo was trying to get the situation under control for his safety and the publics. I guess if some whacked out crack head tells him he has a permit than he should just let him walk and pray he doesnt take a slug in the back of the head as he walks away. I guess when i was detaining towel heads in Iraq i should have let them go about their business when they told me they loved the USA and were good guys. I guess we have to agree to disagree. Have a good day guys

SO everyone answer this.... Why did the other poilce offices (two previous stops) not theaten to kill him.... Call him junior, come up behind him with their guns drawn and pointed at his head? I will answer this for you..... Because the cop involved with this incident is the scumbag and should be fired and then prosecuted.

Several people have said that due to this guy recording the confrontation, it was obvious he was trying to provoke an incident.

I look at it the other way: he's probably carrying the recorder to ensure he doesn't get shafted during an encounter with an LEO who either doesn't know the law, or doesn't care if he's violating someone's civil rights.

The fact that the cop grows increasingly belligerent when his ignorance of the law is exposed, speaks volumes about who is at fault.

The only problem I see with the story is how the police reacted. The police need to learn the law they are supposed to be upholding.

Sorry but the guy was setting them up.

We all get carry permits for different reasons, mainly for protection. Now if we beleive there are so many bad cops all over then maybe we should get pocket recorders too?? Right?? How about getting cam recorders for our autos and mount them on the rear view mirrow to record all those bad cops when they give us speeding tickets.

By the way while we're on this subject. There is a new hoster out and it's on sale, it not only holds your gun but has a holder for your permit.

Want to be in a place where there are several cops around and you tell them you have a permit and reach for the permit with it in that hoster??? Remember we are ALL law abiding citizens here and nothing should happen. Right???

I spent my career working in SFLA where everyone is violent and carrying. And every time I came across someone with a gun it was always secured first before I ever worried about a permit. Then I checked the permit and if it all checked out, the weapon was returned unloaded. Remember LEO doesn't know if you just got fired or had a fight with your wife. Just because you have a permit doesn't mean he's got nothing to worry about, it means you have a tremedous responsebility that to many take for granted. Sorry for the rambling
