Returning to PAPACHUCK's OP, about the OC'er in Slidell cornered by the cops:

if possible explain the statutes that allows for the deputies actions

This may be relevant:

As for grounds for arrest: "The carrying of arms in a quiet, peaceable, and orderly manner, concealed on or about the person, is not a breach of the peace. Nor does such an act of itself, lead to a breach of the peace." (Wharton's Criminal and Civil Procedure, 12th Ed., Vol.2: Judy v. Lashley, 5 W. Va. 628, 41 S.E. 197)

I can think of 3 or 4 Bank robberies including the North Hollywood shoot out in which the first victim was the armed security guard. When I worked in Nashville the AM South Bank on 2nd Ave Down Town was robbed. The first victim was Brett Kassel Nashville PD. Shot while he waited in line to cash a check. He was working a Foot Pad that day. Cops were uni's and OC because it is a symbol of office NOT because it makes the most sense all the time.
