-1 STAR Bank

[Spike_351]

Then I would cc in a very obvious manner, just to **** ol barney fife off,

 

[Signal23]

I survived, he just wanted to tell me how its dangerous to OC like John Wayne and I am making myself a target.

He couldn't understand why I would go to another bank and said they way things are that all banks would be like that soon. I replied good thing I have so many to choose from!

He then asked how my mother would feel if she saw a man with a gun at a bank, I simply smiled and said you don't my mom.


So other than my wasted time arguing about OC vs. CC it was all good. No ID of any kind was requested and he did not attempt to disarm me, just mentioned that if I go back OC'ing he would write to he ISP recommending my LTCH or as he said "permit" be suspended.

THAT sounds like the bank has tresspassed you, did that happen???
Why, if you are full allowed by law would he give such a warning???

Scare tactics, thats all.

 

[DownByTheTracks]

We do all our business with STAR and have had nothing but great dealings with them!

I wouldn't give up on a great bank because of one teller. Go up the chain and talk to an officer or board member that matters and discuss the issue with him/her.

Sounds to me like a JBT in training!

^^^^^ THIS ^^^^^

THEN... if you still don't get the result you are looking for... stop doing business with them.

 

[AndersonIN]

Maybe the LEO should read the KOKOMO POLICE DEPARTMENT FAQ concerning handguns. It states right there that it's not required to conceal. Who would have guessed!

 

[Signal23]

If that was the bank I went to I would meet (un armed or deep CC) with the branch manager and let them know you are well within the law and that's how it's going to be.
See what they say.
If you don't like the answer, THEY HAVE BOSSES as well.

 

[Somemedic]

Get ahold of that branch manager. Sounds like the officer may have a vested interest in one of the tellers... trying to show off for her is my guess. Put it on the bank and then notify the PDs brass.

 

[youngda9]

I would GO TO the PD dept and report the cop for intimidation, file a formal report with a commanding officer.

I would then go to the bank and state my grievence. If I wasn't 100% satisfied with their response I would cancel all of my accounts immediately on the spot.

I would then let my dog poop on their lawn. (I don't have a dog, but it would be a good idea)

 

[Goodcat]

I'm about to OC there and ask about opening a multi million dollar business account.

Please do!

 

[jon5212]

I would talk to the bank as well... they could have opened themselves to a giant lawsuit. They may have filed a complaint... however you were not committing a criminal act. Therefore the bank has violated privacy policy in releasing your personal information when technically since you weren't involved in criminal activity they are not allowed to do.

I'd be calling a lawyer right now and stop talking about what happened. Hope you recorded the encounter.

I work in the insurance industry so we have similar rules we have to follow that a bank does. I don't release my customer's information to anyone unless I have a subpoena or a warrant.

 

[actaeon277]

How did this officer know where you work??

File a complaint, intimidation. You were legal, therefore he can't threaten.

If bank asks you to leave, you must, or its tresspassing. Courts already ruled on it. Having an account does not give you contractual interest.

OC being legal is also on ISP's FAQs. So why would they care?

 

[Concerned Citizen]

What a TOOL.

I OC in my bank all the time. It's Chase Bank. I get nothing but warm welcomes.

 

[traderdan]

Why would you not get a name and badge #? I am assuming that you did....Intimidation by coming to your workplace should be answered by showing up at his..

 

[Rookie]

Sergeant Rood was the name.

 

[Rookie]

I was reading a thread on Indiana gun owners about a guy who open carried a firearm into a bank. This person was licensed by the state of Indiana, and nothing that he was doing was illegal. However, Sergeant Rood went to his place of work, expressed his opinion on open carry versus concealed carry, and then threatened to have the person's license revoked if he open carried again.

A few things bother me about this. First, how did Sergeant Rood know where this gentleman worked? Second, is it standard procedure for the Kokomo police officers to let their opinion take precedence over the law? Third, is it standard procedure to threaten to revoke the license of an individual, who has done nothing illegal, if they continue to engage in a legal act?

I look forward to your reply.

Sincerely,

Chase bank? They are used to holding up their own customers, so they must have thought you were a fellow employee....

 

[BigWagon]

I currently use this bank but now I have second thoughts.
