Federal judge: Carrying a gun is reasonable suspicion of a crime

[Dr.3D]

ROFLMAO

Well, I just paid $168 for my new holster. Some of them are pretty expensive.
I ordered it three weeks ago and they told me they didn't have any in stock and there would be three weeks lead time for the factory to make one. I wish they would hurry up and ship it.

Walking down the street? Reasonable suspsicion of a crime ... (you might be going to or coming from a crime scene) ...

Breathing? Reasonable suspsicion of a crime ... (breathing supplies oxygen to the brain, which is used to decide to commit a crime) ...

Carrying a gun while walking down the street and breathing?? Well, now you're just rubbing their faces in it!!

Exactly. Reasonable suspicion seems to grant them the freedom to do what they want, especially in stop-and-identify states.

(a) A person commits the offense of loitering or prowling when he is in a place at a time or in a manner not usual for law-abiding individuals under circumstances that warrant a justifiable and reasonable alarm or immediate concern for the safety of persons or property in the vicinity.

(b) Among the circumstances which may be considered in determining whether alarm is warranted is the fact that the person takes flight upon the appearance of a law enforcement officer, refuses to identify himself, or manifestly endeavors to conceal himself or any object. Unless flight by the person or other circumstances make it impracticable, a law enforcement officer shall, prior to any arrest for an offense under this Code section, afford the person an opportunity to dispel any alarm or immediate concern which would otherwise be warranted by requesting the person to identify himself and explain his presence and conduct. No person shall be convicted of an offense under this Code section if the law enforcement officer failed to comply with the foregoing procedure or if it appears at trial that the explanation given by the person was true and would have dispelled the alarm or immediate concern.

(c) A person committing the offense of loitering or prowling shall be guilty of a misdemeanor.

(d) This Code section shall not be deemed or construed to affect or limit the powers of counties or municipal corporations to adopt ordinances or resolutions prohibiting loitering or prowling within their respective limits.

kpitcher posted this thread in the Bearing Arms forum and it shows how these stop-and-id state laws affect the entire outcome of a police encounter over open carry.

This guy sued over a police stop because of his open carry in Oregon. Oregon has no stop-and-id law, unlike Georgia. He was given $5000 settlement.

In a way, this fucking moron of a Judge is completely correct. Just look at the Cops.

Im half ass tempted to extend this to anyone who carries a Utility Belt of Death.

I agree with the Federal Judge. All these Federal employees carrying guns have most likely committed crimes or will commit future crimes.

TSA, IRS, NSA, FBI, DHS, CIA, etc. All criminals or criminals to be.
