TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

Apparently "armed in terror of the public" is basically a misdemeanor that you can get popped for if you're openly carrying a weapon and people feel menaced.

brandishing a weapon is already a crime.
why do they need to reinvent it and stick the word 'terror' on it?

the article didn't say that he was openly carrying his pistol, though.
it also didn't say that any of the stuff on his car was verboten.  unless he had some insignia or the words 'police' on his car, then i don't think he can be charged with impersonating a police officer.  (although i believe most states have a law against using blue flashing lights on your car.)
police scanners are legal most places.
antennae are hardly menacing.
from the article, i get the impression that he didn't do anything explicitly wrong, but when taken all together, it was very suspicious....

A rare case of top down causation?
