Certainly some personal risk is assumed when carrying concealed or unconcealed..
Agreed, but dealing with a jumpy/nervous/trigger happy officer/rent-a-cop, shouldn't be on of those risks. Understandable if a hand is on the weapon, but reaching in the direction of your weapon, no. IMO of course.

Ya'll be careful out there!
Really? You think they would shoot someone who has a holstered handgun? What law allows this to happen?
