Lansing Ponderosa Encounter - Raw footage Police detaining and trying to illegally obtain ID's Pt 1

A simple open carry event was ruined when a force of 20 or so Lansing police show up and have no idea what to do. They blocked the entrance of the Ponderosa for what? To greet open carriers is what it looks like. Then it's followed by them trying to illegally obtain ID's and CPL's of open carriers. After a 15-20 minute detention with no purpose they let everyone leave. We've received information that the police illegal ran open carriers information through LIEN and took an online picture of open carriers to distribute as "persons of interest". Sounds like Obama administration at work.

i would have been like well iam free to go so thanks guys for wasting time on something that was not a crime while you could have been out stopping actual crime on the streets. lol tho i think an AR is a bit much but thats just my opinion.

good god man do a few sit ups and you might be able to catch ur breath after 3 steps, ive never heard anyone pant like that before dude, your family should be concerned for your health and quality of life. Not an insult by the way just concern.

Ask the question "Am I free to leave?", if you don't get an answer start walking away and you'll get your answer. They will either let you leave OR stop you, but at least you'll get your answer on film.

Lansing police department must have money to burn with that many officers on a call.

They need to be sued so they a get a clue. not to mention the fact they talked to the manager 2 weeks prior before even going in there ....WOW SO MESSED UP!!!!

[opencarry1973]

Everybody should call the police department in educate the police officers about the law of open carry and stop wasting taxpayer's money WAY too many officer's THAT'S crazy.

How does this have to do with Obama? This has been legal, and illegally enforced, for a long while now and over a span of many presidents.

That same criminal could take a handgun which was carried concealed. In other words there is no deterrent to concealed carry, but open carry is a deterrent.
