I would definately report this oppression from a "Gestapo Cop" to the police department and possibly get advice from a lawyer. This officer was attempting to intimidate you with his actions. My dad was harrassed many years ago for carrying his 1911. The officer told him that "civilians" had no business carrying firearms. He replied with something like "I was carrying this Colt in Vietnam while you were still ****tin in your diapers" The LEO didn't care for the remark but it was the truth, LOL
