Too bad the other thread denigrated into some name calling and stuff. As I see it, I'd MAYBE call the cops and have him checked out or even ask him myself. It kind of depends on what I observe. If a person is within the law, I see no wrong. Stupid?? Possibly. It's quite obvious that the cops are really grasping at straws with this incident.
We can open carry here in MN, but yet, many people still call our permits to carry a "concealed carry license". It's blatantly obvious that many of these people are ignorant of the law, even some of the LEOS up here. We even had an incident a month or so ago where one of our permit holders openly carried into a liquor store (within MN law) and got the cops called on him. They checked him out and then sent him on his way. I don't think it's a really bad thing for the cops to stop and question an individual. However, once it's determined that the individual is within the law, then that should be that.
