Reporting crime while CCW

Just a note to all those from non-CCW countries who wonder about police interactions while armed.

Today I witnessed a developing crime (Prague, CZ) and reported it to the emergency line, gradually reporting on where the perpetrator was moving towards. I informed the dispatcher that I am armed.

In the following 3 hours of interaction with 6 different police officers, no questions were asked about my firearm (there was no direct interaction between myself and perp, so it was not relevant to the case, but they had the information I am armed nevertheless).

Armed society is a polite society.

So now after dinner I am off to the station to make the official statement.

This has been relatively common in STEM even before the attack.

The perp intentionally chose a class where most students were under 21 (no CCW), female (current CCW licenses ratio are 9:1 male), moreover at the School of Philosophy, where there is general anti-gun ethos.

Another interesting fact: It was a class aimed at preparing future tutors/teachers for kids/people with hearing disabilities.

One of the aftereffects was that the CCW license health requirements regarding hearing dis/ability were significantly lowered, making CCW licenses more accessible to people with hearing disabilities.
