I have been reading through some of the good and bad encounters posted. Obviously a bad encounter is one where a legal citizen carrying is harassed. While positive encounters are just when they aren't being harassed...
Is that what a positive encounter is? Not being a bad encounter? The way I see it right now, not being harassed for carrying is a neutral encounter, not bad...not good...neutral. Maybe someone can post a viewpoint to enlighten me some more.
I would expect to label an encounter good or bad, would need to encompass the whole encounter. For example:
I read about a poster who was going 59 in a 45. While you are lucky to be given a warning, was it lawful for the officer to let you get away with speeding?
- (Personal experience) I wasn't harassed for carrying, but was given reckless driving (trooper said I did a wheelie). Trooper lied in court, and I was convicted (I had 2 witness, Trooper did not bring the video). Overall this was a bad encounter even though I wasn't harassed.
Are encounters labeled good/bad based on 2nd amendment violations only? What is your definition of a good encounter?
