Encounters like that usually end up bad.
The cops here are very polite. I have been arrested 3 times (in the time drug use was a crime) and they always asked "please take a seat on the car and accompany us to the station". Politeness goes a long way.
These guys in the OP are like Anarchist, right?
I suspect they WANT to get arrested.
There was a guy in full BDU's toting an M-1 Garand and a 1911a in open carry - marching up and down Westnedge Ave (a shitload of malls and such) in Kalamazoo MI - in about 1989 or so.... (I happened to see this genius at gun show, bragging about it).
They asked him if he would like a ride home. (This part I got years later - from the arresting officer -who I worked with at a gun shop)
Apparently Garand boy had some sort of "point" he was trying to make - but the cops I guess were too dense to comprehend.
They did eventually arrest him for brandishing. Of course resisting arrest and striking an officer ended up getting added....
Like a dumb drunk - Garand boy was proud of his display of shitheadedness...
Go figure.
But don't expect it to make sense.
Batshit crazy rarely does.
I've seen stories like that. Apparently, some places in the US allow open carry if you're fishing or hunting (which makes sense to me) or if you're on your way to engage in those activities. Some fuckwit tested the second part by just roaming round a car park with an semi-automatic rifle and a fishing pole, claiming he was 'on his way to go fishing.'
