“There’s many people that that doesn’t happen to”
On January 15th of this year, I linked to a Vin Suprynowicz post which related the story about an individual living in Las Vegas whose business was robbed, and who was handcuffed and disarmed by the responding law enforcement personnel for providing proof of his identity and legal right to carry a firearm (CCW). I titled that post Making Certain “That We Were All Safe,” Said the Cop, as the Handcuffs Clicked.
Vin has once again posted on this incident, providing additional details from both the individual handcuffed and disarmed, and from the law enforcement personnel involved, which bears reading.
The title to this post, is taken from a statement uttered by Sheriff Doug Gillespie, of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, and I suppose the statement is meant to comfort law abiding citizens everywhere.
Vin’s post is titled CCW: A license to be handcuffed and disarmed.
