In reply to the discussion: Tennesse to allow guns on campus [View all]TipTok

Or just a doubling down on your willingness to commit a crime and potentially cost someone else their health or safety because you want to harass someone who is obeying the law but has offended you personally?
Two options...
You tell the truth that you saw a man with a gun carrying it in a holster in a non threatening manner but it bothers you and you'd like them to come 'check him out'. At that point the police will tell you that he's doing nothing illegal and they have no reason to come.
or...
You lie and say that he is behaving in a threatening manner and they need to get there right fuck NOW. Now you're the actual criminal and you've placed the lives of others in jeapordy by creating an unsafe and stressful situation and you've drawn actual resources from someone who needed them.
Either way.... Doesn't look good for you... Unless you don't care about ethics or morals or the law... Then you are good to go I guess..
