I wouldn't like being asked to put it in the house, but on the other hand, my primary business at the time would be dealing with the vandalism. Once the report was over, I might conversationally ask the LEO why he asked me to disarm, hoping that I might be able to influence his future decisions in that regard. But, I likely wouldn't waste too much energy being angry about it. There are a lot worse injustices happening in the world than my being asked by a cop concerned for his own safety (even if his premise is wrongheaded) to disarm myself during our encounter.

Look at it this way: at least he asked you to disarm by going and putting the gun in your house, rather than disarming you himself - which he is lawfully entitled to do. Again, although I disagree with his reasoning in asking you to disarm, in his own mind he might have been thinking that this was a way that he could satisfy his own needs while still respecting your person.

In any case, life is too short to dance with ugly women, so I would just let it go. If it were me.
