Cuffed and Caged for Open Carry

[Madrevar]

What if some bad guy grabs your gun?

I'll just grab it back.

3-2-09 I am wearing nothing but shorts/tshirt/sandals with only wallet/gun on me, with keys in left hand and beverage in right.

Right there is where I became skeptical.

I don't normally wear those things on such a day, but it was laundry day, and well if wearing shorts then sandals look better than my boots!

For me it was that the one and only post is a police 'screwery' story. I am not saying it is not true or did not happen... Just saying.

I can appreciate how it would look suspicious, but to be honest I haven't had anything interesting to post until last monday.

As for being a bad ass..... Not at all the case - hell, I can barely tie my own shoes never mind shoot straight, or get "Tactical" when I have to..... and I am just as slow as molasses and as feeble as a 90 year old.... just ask around I am sure that there are plenty here that would confirm that for you.

True, he's a total pussbag. Not exactly.

Eff with him and he'll kill you...before breakfast...for fun.

It sounds like the officer was professional enough to realize and admit it was something he was not very familiar with. It sounds like all went well, good job.

But was he professional enough to apologize for the unreasonable cuffing and stuffing? I'm guessing not. Madrevar, it sounds like you handled it well, and overall, the cop was ok...I'm impressed that he admitted his ignorance and I'm certainly not surprised there was no apology over the knee-jerk detainment. If he didn't have his gun pointed at you, then that's a plus as well.

I do think a polite call to the Coon Rapids police chief is in order to politely ask what they teach about the MCPPA and suggest that perhaps some additional discussion with their officers might prevent this from happening again.

Dang I did forget to mention that gem of info. Yea, he approached me low and ready, but not exactly on me.

Fair enough, that's why I qualified my statement with 'not saying it isn't true'.

Please post a verification pic of you in said shorts and sandals with said CZ-82.

That's just silly. The first day after I opened a gym membership, I was on a treadmill in combat boots and shorts.

Give me 5min to figure out how to post that.

See where you went wrong on all of this is how you were wearing your shirts in relation to the boot/sandal dilemma. If you would have worn a pair of Lugz and pulled your shorts down far enough like the home boys, they would have looked like pants. Problem solved!

Well if he can get the pic done you know it has to be true... Too hard to find a CZ that quick in the morning to continue with an off the wall story.
