I was detained by Portland PD officer J McDonald on 26MAY2012. He detains me without suspicion of any criminal activity in violation of Delaware v Prouse. He admits his sole reason for stopping me is my legally carried firearm in violation of US v DeBerry. He seizes my weapon with no reasonable suspicion that I've committed a crime in violation of Terry v Ohio. He demands my ID without reasonable suspicion in violation of Hiibel v Nevada.
Do you know what would have happened to this innocent man (especially in this city) if he did not know the law as he did?
Great job!
I used to work down the street from there. The cops in that town were jerks.
Good for him.
JK,
Great video!
Yes, yes great. Cool citizen, cool cop.
Thanks, R.
What is sad is that in America the Cops count on our ignorance of the law...and take from Us What they are not allowed to...
and back off when confronted by someone like this who knows the law better than they do.
and the video also helped to scare the crap out of them...
they most likely thought He was a Lawyer and would Sue them
I would like to see every street in America full of open carry people every day....
The Cops would loose their Minds!
Is it REALLY too much to expect that those delegated with enforcing the law would take the time to learn what that law actually entails????
What kind of a moron cop neglects to learn the laws he’s expected to enforce?
I’ll bet the pig didn’t learn a damn thing.

I suspect he’s learned that he’s even dumber and more ignorant than he knew. At least I hope he learned that and makes an effort to gain a little wisdom, maturity and knowledge. Of course I’m not holding my breath waiting for that to happen.
Just excellent. I have to wonder what the outcome would have been without the camera.
I hate to keep pinging ya to these. If it gets annoying, please let me know.
I do it because you seem to be on top of all of these 2nd amendment threads these days, and I wouldn’t want you to miss them.
Have a good one.
That was actually well done and well played.
You were committing no crime and therefore he had no authority to stop you, detain you or confiscate your property.
Balzy man.
Almost forgot.
Glad yer still alive. That clearing the weapon thing, while it’s pointed at you, wuz stoopit.
NEVER stick a pencil down the barrel of a 9mm to back a bullet out of the chamber.
Very funny.
But please don’t do that again! ;-)
Sadly, you’re right about the great majority of people, including gun owners, being ignorant of the law.
Are these laws taught in Concealed Cary classes?
Good question! It would be nice if they were taught in our public schools. This nation would be so much better off if they were.
Whoever that person was, he knows his stuff. We need more Americans like him in this country. I'm just happy that it was a cop in my city he did that too. Very liberal here. Southern Maine has become an extension of Metro Boston.
I think Concealed Carry classes cover the basics but not anything in detail.
Too bad about southern Maine.
