Police ARE part of the legal profession, they are the Law Enforcement division of the Legal branch of the government (remember the Executive, Legislative and Judicial branches of government?)
The police do not have, nor will they ever have the power to prosecute, that is for the lawyers; but...
What I'm finding amusing is that with all the members chiming in from California, not one has backed your play on this one. I'm thinking that there has GOT to be at least ONE other California EMT that would corroborate what you're saying IF in fact, it were illegal in California...
If you're 'in the middle of an IFT run', why are you stopping at another call in the first place?

Don'tcha just love it when the 'anti-gun crowd' tries to figure out why us 'gun toting rednecks' carry? I don't know who wrote this, but I agree with what it says:
