>But this guy driiving at a high rate of speed, crashing into a gate with his two daughters strapped in the back seat at 4:40 in the morning and refusing to obey legitimate commands of a law enforcement officer isn’t making you curious?

Question: What constitutes a legitimate command from a law-enforcement officer?

1) Would the command to divest myself of my weapon upon entry of a [county or municipal] courthouse be legitimate? (Assume it is posted on the courthouse.)
2) Even if there is no state-law concerning it?
3) Even if such a State Law would be null and void because the State Constitution says: “No law shall abridge the the right of the citizen to keep and bear arms for security and defense [...]”?
4) Even if the State Constitution flatly prohibits any county/municipality from regulating “in any way” an incident to keep and bear arms?

So, would that be a legitimate command?

How about, “License and registration please.”
