As much as I advocate firearm ownership, I have to side with the cops on this one. When you fire a warning shot, the slug goes somewhere, could ricochet and hit someone innocent. Improbable, but possible.
What I thought was dumb was within the last year here a Deputy Sheriff made a routine traffic stop on a farmer in his pickup.

I never heard another word about it, and I know most of the deputies in the county. I'm assuming sanity prevailed somewhere along the way.
