Glad that didn't end worse than it did.  Kudos to the guy for being pretty respectful and keeping his calm.

My question is, did he provide the Philly PD with a copy of the recording and if so did they take action?

That guy open carrying needs a
1)  a life
2) an attitude adjustment

He didnt need to treat the officers like that and I have no  clue why he thinks he does not have to present ID upon request.

He helped escalate the situation by being a jerk to them first.

Because Pennsylvania law specifically spells out that he doesn't have to show ID and can't be detained if he wasn't breaking a law, just because he is OC'ing.  Had you bothered to read everything involved and investigated MPOETC you would not have asked such a silly question. That is unless you feel that your rights are not really rights. I applaud the man for standing up for his RIGHTS.
