The LEO had no legal reason to ask the jogger to drop the weapon on the ground and be cleared.
If it was a mutual agreement, I'm OK with that. I'm only concerned about the legality of this incident. The gun owner could have refused and continued on his jog. Oklahoma is NOT a stop and identify state merely to satisfy LEO curiosity.


Some less professional or untrained officers will view the assertion of your constitutional rights as a challenge to their authority and decide to arrest you anyway. If this happens, you have a valid claim against the officer for violating your rights as secured by the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution.
Expect to be arrested and call your attorney without saying one word.

Calling your attorney usually ends up costing you money. Common sense, and civility, on the other hand, might not. Knowing what little we really know about this, I’m now of the opinion that all’s well that ends well.
