I wonder if one LEO now has a better perspective of OC?

Ok my 2 cents. Anyone that thinks this is justified obviously has no clue about anything. What i heard in that video was the same type of rhetoric spouted by the Brady Bunch, except it was aimed at cops not at guns. Everyone that owns a gun is not a bad guy, same as everyone that wears a badge is not corrupt. If u can actually think this is ok then you are a criminal who has no business owning a gun. So now this officer knows what discrimination feels like, but does anyone know him? Has he personally ever harassed or discrimanated against an OCer? He's in Oregon so who knows? Just saying if u believe he deserves it for being a cop then u have to believe Ocers deserve it for carrying. Step back and take a good look, it's the exact same principle, discrimination.
If u can actually think this is ok then you are a criminal who has no business owning a gun.
I really prefer not to have armed agents of my government on my property without my summoning them there first.

Ok sorry im not a literary scholar and maybe phrased it the wrong way. The point I was trying to make is that it's discrimination. It had nothing to do with whether they allow guns or not. It was simply becuase he was a LEO. So if u think its ok and within their rights, we can go back to the Civil Rights Act. Is it ok to kick someone out of a store for being black? No. Mexican? No. Martian? No. So why is it ok to discriminate becuase of his job? It's not. That was my point.

That business owner is a knucklehead, straight up, plain and simple.
Its well within the property owner's rights to ask him to leave. If I were the officer, it probably would have irked me just as it would if I wasn't causing any problems and was still asked to leave any other place for any other reason including carrying a firearm openly while not being a uniformed officer.
If a police officer walked in my front door right now, I'd demand that he leave. I really prefer not to have armed agents of my government on my property without my summoning them there first.
