I lived in New Orleans for 30yrs. There was corruption at every level of government. It was never a question of if a palm was going to get greased it was simply a matter of how greasey it was going to get. The cops were no exception. You couldn't get anyone to testify against a thug because if you talked you died. Turned out the death squad was several LEOs. Don't know if she was ever executed or not but there was a female LEO convicted of killing her partner because he found out she was on the take.

I could go on and on but you get the point.

It sickens me how ignorant the police are about CHLs. I was pulled over for the first time and I am still too angry to give the entire account. I followed the rules perfectly and told the LEO very calmly that I had a CHL and he panicked. He screamed for me to get out of the car and keep my hands on my head. He frisked me against my car and pulled out my LCP as if he didn't know it was there. It would have been much easier if I'd just kept my mouth shut about my CHL and my LCP. Everything was cool and polite until I said the G word.

Oh and I was pulled over for following too close to a moron who was weaving from lane to lane going 35 in a 65. The LEO told me that the idiot was weaving from lane to lane because I was following too close. I wanted to suggest that the person in front of me weaving from lane top lane going 35 in a 65 was probably drunk, but instead my only words throughout the entire stop were, "I have a CHL and I'm carrying in my front right pocket."

Question of the day: Why would any of us disclose a gun if we wanted to harm a LEO???

I am not aware of a single documented case of a police officer being injured by a CHL. In contrast, just 5 months ago a CHL saved the life of a Dallas LEO.

Did anyone notice that the video contradicts the police report? This alone should result in the officer being fired and charges filed against him. It is also obvious to me that people high in the organization attempted to cover up the incident. They said themselves that releasing the video would hamper the case against the car dealer. Duh! Of course it would, he didn't do anything wrong.

Some suggested that we did not see the whole video and thus have not heard the whole story. I would bet the farm if there is anything on the video that helps the department save face the chief would have not stalled the release of the video and we would have seen him on tv shouting the innocence of the officer.

The sad thing is we will never know how this turns out. The guy will get his money ($250K min) in exchange for his silence and nothing will happen to the cop because that would mean that the dept was admitting guilt. So remember the name David Tatom because I bet we hear it again in the future.
