So he was OC'ing or cop could just see it?
And if you are going to get disarmed....let the officer do it. I saw a video where the officer actually said.....you are going need to hand me that pistol....the guy said "if you are going to disarm me I prefer you do it so there is no misunderstanding"....and the guy put his arms up so the officer could remove the gun from the holster. I think that is the smart way.If you're going to get stopped this is how you'd like every one to go. I don't like the disarming but I understand why.
Providing that he can do it without shooting you in the foot. Jack.And if you are going to get disarmed....let the officer do it.

Has to be something more to this story. Otherwise that is an unlawful search and detaining. No probable cause. I would have made his life miserable after that with his superiors, the news, etc.I had a stop similar to this when I got out of the service. I was travelling through Medford a trooper stopped me. I was polite and professional the trooper asked for my license. I gave it to him and told him I just got out of the military. He asked about weapons I said yes in a holster handed him my LTC and Military ID. He then placed me in the back of his cruiser after disarming me. Searched the car tore up the trunk looking for anything/found nothing. He took my firearm pulled the mag stripped all the bullets into the trunk tossed the firearm in there with the rest of the destroyed stuff. Said for me to wait for him to drive off before getting back into my vehicle and then drove off. Nothing says welcome home like that bull shit.
