If your a legal gun owner and either open carry or conceal carry should you fear the police if they come near you ? Even if you pose no threat , is it ok for a cop to shoot you ? If your shirt comes up revealing a weapon for self defense and you are near a cop , do you become a threat or are you still a law abiding citizen exersizeing your 2nd amendment rights ? https://www.oregonlive.com/portland/index.ssf/2018/06/man_killed_by_portland_state_p.html

Not enough information for me to judge on this shooting. I would think once the police officers arrived he should have step back and let them take over. But who knows. JMO

Why does it always seem like at the very moment the incident occurs, the person filming turns away from what needs to be seen lol.
I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

I agree , not enough info to pass judgement
What if he was an off duty cop ?
What if he accidentally dropped his piece and like any normal thinking person , automatically and responsibly retrieved it ?
Should he be shot for containing his firearm ?

Police policy needs to change. There are good cops out there, but there is a LOT wrong with policing today. I highly recommend the book Rise of the Warrior Cop by Radley Balko to anyone who is interested in learning more on the issue.
Any thoughts on this one?:

The real question here is , as gun owners should we fear the police for possessing and exercising our 2nd rights ?
I remember 20 yrs or more ago before I had a cc permission slip I would just place my loaded pistol on the dash when pulled over . No harm no foul
If I do that today I may very well be executed

Though sad for the dead guy's family and the cop who pulled the trigger, friends don't let friends carry drunk. Was he drunk ?

I guess if you wanna walk the walk you need to talk the talk,in other words if you carry a gun and you feel you may be shot-shoot first.
Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

If I do that today I may very well be executed I used to tote mama's .38 at 16 to go fishing. The local deputies just told me to keep it out of sight. Times have changed and not for the better.

We don't need a carry permit here in AK, but we are required by law to notify any peace officers we are armed, as soon as we encounter them.
