The police chief said no one can demand a person to show their gun

And we all know who's fault this is going to be (at least in the minds of FNews viewers, the NRA and Tea baggers)

I don't see why a non-LEO has any business playing vigilante and demanding to see a CCL. Because that is exactly what the crazy old dude was doing. If you're that concerned, call the police. It's their job to handle it, not yours.

I'm a bit confused, here. On the one hand OP says, "What the flippity fluckity floo?", suggesting that the older guy was justified in his demands, yet I'm willing to bet OP would also think those open carry protesters are nutburgers for scaring the Hell out of people by open carrying because you don't know for sure what their intentions are.

My wtf is about why the police themselves cannot ask to see someone's permit

I thought that'd be obvious

Your point was obvious. To most of us.

To those who are determined NOT to see it? All bets are off!
