There's a (stupid) cafe/restaurant in Portland that has a "no law enforcement officers allowed" policy. Even funnier, they *DON'T* have a posted "no firearms" sign. One of these days, I need to go in open-carrying.
I can't decide if I want to call and warn the police first or not. If I do, it may be seen as premeditated disturbing the peace, with prior admission of guilt...
If they dont like cops so much that they dont allow them in their cafe, just see how long the response time is when they call 911 saying they are being robbed. I have a feeling the cops might just take their time.
I agree. If a LEO's life is so dangerous that they have to run around with guns 24/7 even when they are not on duty, then the rest of us ordinary folks do too. LEO's should not get special olympic treatment because of their jobs.
Keykutter:236357 said:I agree. LEO's should have the privelege of CC without the need to apply. The things he has to do on a day to day may definitely affect the light he is seen in on his off duty hours. He is more of a target than the normal civilian if he is recognized and in a vulnerable position.
On the same note, I also think he should be alway's on the 'verge' of being on duty should the need arise. In that case, the gun would be a neccessary tool for his response.

You have the option to turn and run when things get a little hairy, police officers are required by OATH to react hence why the 24/7 is given..... Police officers are always "on duty" ..... Next time you feel like badging police officers ..... Just answer the post at hand..... Thanks

I'm kinda thinking you have misunderstood my meaning. I was defending the right of an LEO to carry without a CWP.
Why you thought I was trying to get an LEO to get a permit is beyond me. I hope you are not an LEO because your assesment of this situation, my post, leaves a bit to be desired.
Your right, I can't engage without defending a threat of life while an LEO can. I believe it should be that way
Sorry, silly me, I thought the OP asked what the law was...not my feelings on permit laws in the first place.I personally think that LEOSA is a bunch of crap. If cops need to run around the nation armed 24/7, and I am not sure that they do, then the rest of us ordinary folks should have that right too.
