Looking right at it. Video's had over 2 million hits.

That officer was not only professional, he was hot. Wonder if he appears on a calendar somewhere.

This is an excellent example of pure professionalism. This Officer will go far in his department and rightly so.

There will always be a need for the rubber hose. These young cocky kids have never been worked over. You don't poke a bear with a sharp stick, he will learn.

That is a wonderful example of how police should interact with attention-seeking individuals. 2 thumbs up for the officers.

Can we get that guy to transfer to Mississippi? Much more articulate than any caller to any local radio call in show.

And just how does an automatic look different from a semi-auto?
ANSWER: there is no difference.

So, given that there are FAR more semi-automatic weapons on the street than automatic, just what makes this cop believe it that might be automatic?

And, what makes him believe that if it is automatic, that this man is not properly licensed?

Sorry. This cop was off base.

@ 1:36
I hope you normally sit to do #1 .....not flying an offensive multi-colored flag.

Yup, there are plenty of People walking around with semi auto MP5's

2:55 is very alert to the possibility there might be an icky gay dude around. He's not sure why, but he thinks about that possibility a lot.

KF @ 3:01PM---nope...but, people have every right to do so. It is ABSOLUTELY legal to do so. By doing so does NOT give rise to probable cause that a crime has/is being committed. It alone does not mean a cop can detain you or search you.

Once upon a time, living in and around Jackson Mississippi meant that there were pick up trucks every where with shot guns and rifles in a rack in the back window...and with the windows rolled down. No one was stealing the guns. And no one was killing other people with them. And no one was scared to death at the site of a gun.

There are some funny sumbitches that remark on this site. 2:55. You are one of them. Classic.

This country has become a full on 100% cartoon.

Probable Cause is a legal term for a reason.

"sumbitches". Woody, is that you?

You don't get it. Someone called in a complaint, they are obliged to respond, and did so in the best possible way. You are just like those two snot-nose punks hoping to provoke, and then being very disappointed ...

I am a gun enthusiast, I get 2d amendment, but it is just stupid and narcissistic to walk around filming and hoping for fame for being a jerk.

I own a number of firearms for a variety of reasons but never considered myself an 'enthusiast'. That sounds kinda prissy. But your lecture is duly noted.

The video is an invite to live in, or visit, a 2nd Amend respectful city like Klamath Falls, Oregon.

7:07 - great idea. I recommend it to all gun worshippers.

Excellent police work. That officer was ideal.
Thank you for posting and giving me hope.

/s a repeat critic in this site of men in blue

First of all, these jerks caused unnecessary fear in the person who called in the complaint...so much for her rights or do none of the other sentences matter in the Constitution matter and is our Declaration of Independence meaningless as the reason for the Constitution? Read the latter all the way through.

They wasted the officers time and we can be thankful that a real crime didn't occur where they were the nearest available to respond.

Whatever one's feeling on this issue, the certainty these guys are troublemaking assholes should be clear to everyone.

I would like to say first that I am not a law enforcement officer. I would also like to say that at this point in my life I'm way on the shady other side of 55 years old and up until 10 years ago I totally dreaded it when a LEO pulled up or drove by. I've made fun of them and their chosen profession. I've bought, smoked and snorted my share of recreational substances over the years.

Ten years ago, by the grace of god, I landed a job with a government agency and it requires that I work closely with several law enforcement agencies and the men and women that wear the badge and do the job most dont want to do. In my first year of employment there, 3 officers were shot in the line of duty. These were people that I'd come to know, respect and they had accepted me as a friend. The job that law enforcement officers choose to do hit me like a running ton of bricks the day those men were shot. All three had children less than 5 years old at that time.

It was that day that I truly realized that the job that officers have to do and the training they have to receive, by law, to be certified to do that job.....what I'm getting at is this.....I get it that every agency may have bad people working and some may let the job go to their head but before you start having an attitude with a police officer, sheriff's deputy or state trooper remember this... these men and women are doing a job.....the job they chose to do and at the end of a shift they want to go home just like the rest of us do....so...try being nice because these officers never know what they are walking in to......I'm off my box now....KUDOS to the officers in this video.

I'm a gun guy. I'm interested in firearms of all types, and regularly read firearms related news and commentary. I'm a firm believer in the Second Amendment and dislike pretty much any sort of gun control whatsoever. To paraphrase National Review's Charles C.W. Cooke, I'm the sort of person that believes we should be able to purchase automatic weapons at the corner store.

All that said, I really really really dislike these guys that go out to make a point with the open carry of tactical-looking rifles and other such firearms. Yeah, we get it, you're a constitutional scholar and are out to make yourself YouTube famous. You're also acting like a jackass, and yeah, somebody walking around with a black rifle on his back is bound to make people kinda uncomfortable.

Have some common sense, guys. Some people might look at you sideways if you have a S&W .357 or a Glock Model 22 holstered on your hip, but people probably won't freak out. Some weirdo walking around with an MP-5 or AR strapped to his back...yeah, that's reasonable cause for concern.

You have a right to do it. Doesn't make it smart.

I carry concealed. If I saw a black guy with pants below his ass with a tech 9 I would call the poolice!
If I saw a Hispanic in a wife beater and a bandanna with a9 mm I would call the federalies.
If I saw a white guy with a black gun I would call SWAT.
I know all these are stereotypical but as a white man come on guys when we have a nut he usually wants a high body count.our nuts are really NUTS. Just look at their eyes.

And you sound kind of pissy. Bet mine are bigger than yours--

The guy had an absolute right to carry the weapon openly without ANY law enforcement interference. He was actually even required to identify himself since there was no basis for even a suspicion of a crime. The Police Department and officer personally could be and SHOULD be sued. I would and let the officer see how much a lawyer would cost his family. Typical knucklehead that can't get a job doing anything else.

I meant to say he "wasn't" actually even required to identify himself...". JJ has no edit function.

Search "first amendment test" and "second amendment test" on YouTube and you will many MORE videos where ignorant cops with no concept of the law are OWNED by protesters. The stories these knuckleheaded cops come up with to "justify" their illegal stops and detentions is hilarious.

Just watched a few of the videos from the above search tips. The way these cops handle themselves shows just how DUMB most of them are. The first thing they do is ask for ID with no valid reason. When refused, they get irate and go ballistic - even handcuffing people without justification. What a joke.

Range Rider, I challenge you to step up and do a law enforcement officers job. Same for you, Lash Larue.......Eddie, it wouldnt worry you that some random guy was walking your neighborhood or towns streets strapped with a weapon? You would think its ok? If the police didnt stop and question these guys they would not be doing the job tax payers pay them to do regardless of whether or not someone called in about him carrying a gun down the street.

I own guns, lots of them, long guns, pistols, tactical and recreational and even though its legal to do so, I'm not going to sling any of them on to walk down the street just to prove something or to provoke a confrontation with anyone, LEO or private citizen. Its foolish.

The Second Amendment and the courts have said you CAN walk down the street while open carrying to prove a point WITHOUT any police interference. The other interesting thing from those videos is how many of those knuckleheaded police officers shave their heads. I guess it is a macho thing that goes with a pistol and nightstick.
