Whats oddly ironic is that he is compelled to speak out about "carrying weapons in the worst of conditions". In my mind, the poorer my conditions, the more necessary protection is. If everyone lived in crime free "Mayberry" type places, people might not have as strong of a need (but still the RIGHT, of course) to be armed. However, he speaks of "drug and crime ridden neighborhoods at 1:30 AM"......is there a better place TO carry? I darn sure wouldn't want to depend on the officer in the video for my safety. but I shouldn't have the option of taking my personal security into my own hands? Too, he speaks of how the sorts of incidents involving the Canton officer will increase if the public is allowed to go armed, almost excusing the officer's behavior, blaming the law rather than its enforcement for the problems. Heres a newsflash buddy....with varying degrees of success, departments nationwide have handled the issue of concealed carry fairly well. The officer's complete lack of regard for the law and his belligerent, degrading approach to dealing the public is far more of a danger to the public at large than the average concealed carrier, as such a reaction could provoke a counterreaction by someone who felt threatened by his actions. When a cop tells a citizen....who has broken no laws...that he "should have emptied his Glock into him" while screaming in a handcuffed person's face.....the issue IS NOT concealed carry, but officer conduct. The reason the Canton council has recieved so many calls is not becasue of the ccw laws there, but because of this outlandish behavior that seems to be being almost excused by a member of the city council. Absurd doesn't begin to cover his statement
