That was a very evenly reported news story. They took no opinion and seemed fair to both sides. Kudos to them.Quote:

The direct quote just after the cops 2A comment is "He said he saw you carry a gun in here."
The cop was responding to a man with gun report and handled it appropriately.
The only thing I saw wrong with the news story was the reported "questioning" in the opening line. Nobody was questioned, except for the trooper taking heat for doing his job.
Here's a news story about the event. Has 6 pictures as well.

that is not a bad write up either, I'm actually surprised the news outlets up there are being as fair as they are. The reader comments though disgust me.
Maybe he has trouble parking...new cars come with bumper cams...Quote:

3 Waukesha County Sheriffs paid a visit to our member at 10:30 at night on Monday in response to the state troopers misplaced complaint.
Please join us in Sunday to say to the State Patrol that their harassment of a law-abiding citizen is not acceptable.
I didn't spend a lot of time looking for an explanation, but from what I saw, how did the sheriff's know where to contact the person that was carrying? Did they get his plate number? It was said that they came in after the poster was done eating. Did they follow him out to see which car was his?

no one called he just decided to enforce private property rules but in my case the manager didnt side with the policeman
Based on what the OC'er said they saw hi get out load and holster his weapon in accordance with the law, he said they then went looked at his car peered into the window, was told they ran his plates to make sure he had no warrants out for him and then went inside. He said they mistook his scanners for light control boxes.Quote:

Why isn't there a video of the encounter at his home that night? :blink:

I'm not raggin on you I just want to make sure the story isn't making a mountain out of a mole hill.
The story says the officers were off duty that approached him, why or how would they get the complaint. Not only that but if the owner or management is OK with him being there that's all that matters.Quote:
