Your problem is that of an officer not fully knowing the law is all. I'm sure it was nothing personal towards you. I'm sure once he found out you were sent on your way. Yes, I'm sure it was an inconvenience. But, consider what it is like for these officers now a days?

Be glad you can carry at all. Hillary or Obama gets there way, you may be one of the victims. They may not see you as one that requires you to carry all the time. I on the other hand think and guard, or prison personnel that deals directly with inmates, and can at any time be threatened, should be allowed to be able to protect themselves. As far as the khahn79's statement, I can completely understand where you're coming from. An inmate can at anytime surprise any member of the prison staff that may be carrying inside and use it against that individual or someone else. I completely agree with them not having the authority to carry in that instance.

Now as far as the ones that are kept armed, but away from the general population, such as the guards on a wall or something like that, by all means, give them the best rifle with an even better scope and allow them to take 'em out.
