I imagine if there was audio, the video would not be allowed on Trapperman. If the guy would of just stayed calm and cooperated, he would still be alive. If he was legally carrying the gun and had cooperated, in a few minutes he would of been going on his way. Almost all people who get shot by police are at least in part, responsible for their own shooting, because of their behavior.

his friends said he had a ccw but the police say that is not true.
Osky I was looking for that info too but couldn't find either way.

I will reiterate the way to stay alive in close encounters with the state; flop prostrate on the ground and play possum. Do not move, do not play Simon Says. Either they will approach you to cuff or will eventually go away.

That would be a good way to end up in a mental ward.

Just act calm and polite and it's very unlikely you will have any trouble with police officers, that you don't deserve.

If Daniel Shaver were alive he would disagree with you, Keith.

Those of you saying LE wont go around confiscating firearms ought to watch that video

Carrying a gun in some states is illegal, at least currently on the books. Just because you don't agree with it doesn't make it legal.

I would think that permits are pretty specific on the expected conduct regarding encounters with law enforcement....????

Those laws then are illegal, as the Constitution clearly lays out that our right to bear arms shall not be infringed- that the right was endowed in us by our creator. Therefore, for what little it is worth, I will stand with an armed citizen over state law always.

Shall not be infringed seems like a simple concept to me.
Our constitution wasnt written for lawyers but lawyers have twisted it up horribly.

The real shame is we americans have allowed it.there is a newspaper in LA being told to remove a story about a cop in bed with drug cartels. Not be ause it isnt true but because the judge issued a gag order. First ammendment is under attack also.

So easy to type words.

"take me to your leader".

But Mr.Finn how could you make an affect on illegal and immoral state law? *Swings arm smile and point like the ladies from Price Is Right* Jury Nullification. If, for your misdemeanor trial for carrying a firearm with out proper paper,your jury consists of 5 sycophantic bootlickers and me- you'll be tap dancing out the courtroom a winner.

and 10,000 dollars poorer

What do you mean by “they”?

I'm no expert but I think you'd do well to find a more modestly priced lawyer.

there's no i in team
