That one was too easy. It's been burning up every gunblogger/RKBA/libertarian blog for a couple days.

To be honest, I'm not surprised he lost his cool. It must be terrifying knowing that any person you search could pull a gun on you. You know there are other countries where handguns are illegal and ordinary police don't have to carry firearms about with them?

In the video it's not obvious what the guy in the car is saying and it looks like he was messing them around to some extent. No wonder the policeman tells him to be quiet while they try to get on with the search.

Yes, the policeman's comments at the end are over the top. However, I'm quite shocked by some of the comments at the youtube channel. The video has been uploaded by "Ohioans for concealed carry" and there's someone with a lot of likes for their comment asking why citizens shouldn't carry guns when the police carry guns. Possibly because for the police in the US carrying a gun is a necessity, not a luxury?

The first video shows a policeman handling a similar situation with a good bit of civility and style.

This fits in well with the general trend of "Florida for moralizing, imbecilic and/or oblivious twattery" and "Ohio for sheer assholishness".

I'm amazed he didn't just shoot the cop.

There was a moment, when the guy was explaining that he knew the woman from his days as a cab driver, where he perhaps should have instead said he had a concealed weapon.

But the cops are SUPPOSED TO ASK if he has weapons/drugs. So uh, fail guys.

This is clearly two racist cops harrassing a black driver. At one point they wilfully mishear his name, and when he repeats to correct them they accuse him of giving a false name. They're desperate to shoot him, and constantly trying to work the situation to a point where selected dashcam footage would justify it.

There's actually a really hilarious video out there of a guy totally overreacting to a speeding ticket and a state trooper being saintly calm about it.

Police officers should be required to meditate or take yoga classes or something to keep them calm--it is a stressful job.

BWAHAHA!

Guessed right. If I recall correctly, you don't need a permit in FL.
