OCLG Oakland County Sherriffs Department + Encounter..wmv

I openly carried my M1A Socom 16 rifle from the trailer to the storage unit. I do support the right to openly carry rifles, but typically, I discourage it. Its not the right time for that. The car wasnt running right, and the case was in the storage unit, and I didnt want to leave it in the trailer park.

Oakland County Sherriffs Department showed up, some jackass in a Cadillac decided to call the police for someone exercising thier second amendment rights.

This Sherriffs Department has always treated me well, I have dealt with them a few times on gun rights issues as well as other "normal" activities.

Give credit where it is due.

Quit answering his questions!!! If it is legal, quit giving him information that he COULD use to arrest you in some way.

@TheGrayman1234 There is a point to answer questions, and not to answer questions. Wash Rinse Repeat has its limits, you dont incriminate yourself, but you balance that with not coming off as a jerk. One thing you have to do while OC, is to open peoples minds to it.

I could have refused to answer his questions, but I was within the law, and you can see that I have a good relationship with the department, I would prefer to keep it that way.

@stainless1911 Coming off as a jerk is not illegal. Sorry but if it comes to making a cop mad and giving them info that they can hang me with, the cop will just have to get mad. Ask ANY lawyer.

It should not matter if you have a good relationship with the department or not, you were not breaking the law so they should have nothing to say about the matter.

@TheGrayman1234 When someone calls with a MWAG, they have a duty to respond. If you intend to keep your so called "rights", use some tact.

Oakland county police are hit or miss i have been pulled over by the same sheriff about 4 times and he always let me go because of my veterans license plate

@stainless1911 They have a duty to respond and (in my state) once they ID me, run my warrants (find out I have none) and see that I am doing NOTHING illegal they should leave. Sorry the right to bare arms is granted by the constitution and can not be taken away whether I use tack or not. The law is supposed to be blind and impartial. If an unprofessional officer wants to push the matter, then I will see him in court.
