‘You Fu** with me!’: Cop Threatens to Kill Concealed Carry Gun Owner During Traffic Stop

(By Jonathon M. Seidl, The Blaze) - A police officer’s dash cam in Canton, OH caught a disturbing exchange last month between a cop and a driver during a traffic stop. In it, the cop can be heard (and seen) berating a man for not telling the officer immediately that he had a concealed carry permit and thus a concealed weapon, even saying that he should have killed him. But there’s just one problem: the man tried several times but the officer cut him off.
