Tony like you my stance won't change> If you don't know the law how can you arrest anyone ?
As for PA case the officer stated on at least 4 occasions he knew the law he was offered a Gun Rights flier about OCing and refused it. They could have made telephone calls to the Chief or the DA's to find out the law.
Like when Mrs Pa was threatened with arrest for video taping the incident. While I don't expect a LEO to know all the laws on the books I do expect them to know the ones that deal with a persons rights. PA was never read his while we were there.
I believe a DA or someone who has access to the law books are on call to assist the police when they make a stop. Plus every collage offers a Judicial course on criminal justice which most municipalities will pay for a police officer to attend as laws change each year.
And it does cut down on law suites
