I would say you succeeded Richard..........

What if a cop knocked on your door asking to come in and search your house because a neighbor called and said they saw someone suspicious run into your neighborhood?

I would tell him to stay there and that I will clear the house and let him know when it is okay.

My response would be that if someone had suspicious had run into my home there would be no need for a search, I'll be happy to show you the body.

I couldn't even imagine what would of happened if people had concealed weapons in their cars. Does that make you a bank robber?

That's what I was thinking... an honest armed citizen is easily mistaken for a criminal when a high stress situation occurs. I would have moved extremely slowly had I been stopped in this case. But my question is, isn't being handcuffed without cause (like in this situation) constitute illegal detention?

sounds like the police had probable cause and thus do not need a warrant.

I think they were giving more than they should have by even asking.

we have probable cause to believe there is a bank robbery suspect among the 19 cars at this intersection, we will be searching your car to ascertain whether you are the person in question.

while i am generally on the side of personal rights, i don't see the police doing anything wrong here, handcuffed for everyone's safety with a felon on the run

They had no description of the suspect so how the hell is that probable cause??????

thats what I was thinking... yeah maybe stop you for awhile but cuff you?? doesnt sound right to me...

I do hope that some people at that precinct are held accountable for infringing on those peoples 4th amendment rights.
