[QUOTE="Michael Brown, post: 1602215, member: 18"] Some officers got a call of a man pointing a firearm during a disturbance last night. When the officers got there the man described as the subject with the gun tried to walk away. When they stopped him and stated they were going to pat him down for weapons, he responded by yelling "You ain't patting down s**t!" and when the officers attempted to pat him down he pulled away and had to be pepper-sprayed and taken to the ground. It turns out he was a CCW holder and legally armed. HOWEVER his behavior turned him from the likely victim into a suspect. The facts of the incident did seem to indicate that he MIGHT have been the victim although both sides of the disturbance obviously claimed the other was the aggressor. So now instead of being a lawfully armed victim, this individual will be a criminal defendant based solely on his response to the officers at the scene and likely lose his CCW permit. The bottom line is that when the police arrive, do nothing rash, do exactly as you're told, remain calm and if you don't like how the police treat you, deal with it later not at the scene. It doesn't mean the police are right or wrong, but the incorrect response to the police can turn you into a criminal very quickly. Train to do things properly and remain calm. Michael Brown [/QUOTE]
