My friend was handcuffed, disarmed, and placed in the back of a police car while the officer "investigated"

I felt it was excessive, yes.

Had it been a simple, "Sir, you're failing to conceal, please step outside, I need to speak with you" I think that would have been the most called for.
I have no problem that the officer responded to a citizen report, I think he was excessive in his response, however.
gotcha. ;-)

.
How is it being hasseled when an officer is responding to a citizen report? A amall percentage of the population actually have a CHL, and fewer carry often.

Is it your opinion that it was unreasonable for the officer to investigate the woman's report, or do you object to his method?
