As a sworn LEO, he is entitled by law to carry when and where he pleases in his jurisdiction...in fact, many departments require a backup piece be carried off-duty.
If it were concealed, Im sure that would make people less anxious but I would think you would have a hard time convincing him to disarm completely. A pistol is a tool of his profession.

OK, so I display my ignorance of police procedure, but I wouldn't try to convince him of anything. As I said, it is an issue (IMO) for the local chief of police, not the umpire.
