Re: Disarmed by uninformed officer

I'm glad that you and the officer walked away without physical harm. Very volatile situation.

The greatest power LEO has is the power of discretion. Based on your side of the story, the discretion by the officer to remove your weapon was utterly over the top.
If he thought you posed danger, he would have had his out long before he even approached you.
So, he didn't feel threatened based on his actions. It was just a power play that could have gotten out of control quickly.
