Does being armed mean that one is legally required to endure impoliteness?

Not at all. But does the fact that he was armed allow him to enforce public decorum when he probably wouldn't have done so if he was unarmed? I would have gotten my BLT to go.

If he had just asked without making two laps around the table then I would not call it "enforcing public decorum".
