Tell the cop "Since we both have guns, let's make a gentleman's agreement that we will both keep them holstered." Never trust a person who doesn't trust you. "All is yellow to the jaundiced eye", as the Bard used to say.
If a police officer is that paranoid of the citizenry, given no cause, he might need to consider alternative career options.
Anyhow, anytime you are dealing with a LEO, even if you called him, get a card and the name of his immediate supervisor. Just asking for it sometimes moves the encounter to a better level.
