I have a question for all of you street cops out there. What is your attitude regarding citizen weapons carry for self defense, legally or illegally? What is the attitude of other officers and agencies in your experience? Do you feel obligated, or does your agency require you to take action against those carrying illegally?
Here in central Oklahoma, law enforcement, the DAs and courts have generally not been interested in enforcing these laws as long as the person is not behaving criminally or irresponsibly. They know that they cannot protect individuals, and have the integrity not prevent individuals from being able to defend themselves, regardless of what the Legislature says.
How is it in other parts of the country?
