Exactly... I was at the point recently of starting to write down bumper numbers every time I saw a deputy up here doing something stupid/dangerous/illegal, but figured "fuck it", I didn't want them to start keeping their eyes peeled for me. Most of the time they behave, but once in a while one of them will do something that'll make me a little worried these are the guys entrusted with public safety.

Jeebus ... everyone have a broken sarcasm detector today?
Lately when someone posts some news story about the bad behavior of the "boys in blue" someone else comes along and accuses the poster of "Cop Bashing".
I figured I'd head that off with some sarcasm.
I guess I shoulda used a

I sent you a PM too, but since others seemed to be confused I figured I'd clear it up here so it DIDN'T end up jacking the thread.
Again, these kind of threads tend to get somewhat heated and I was just hoping to add a bit of levity to it to prevent the inevitable lock for cop bashing.
As for the cops in question, every single one of them should be fired and the cop that gave the order jailed. Frankly it should be a jail-able offense for anyone in law enforcement to violate anyone's civil or property rights (there, back on topic).

It does seem that the police in this incident went to extraordinary lengths to tread on their genitalia...
I read the complaints, and if true, they'll be lucky to get off as cheaply as 100K.

Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?
That is actually very funny. I have to admit this is a weird one. If this went down just like the article says I do not understand why they just did not give them back.
After looking at the list there is nothing there that would warrant further study. Fully 50% of the members here have more/better items than that.
And of course the manager should have asked to see the warrant before unlocking the door. I see lawsuit #2 coming on that one.![]()
I see you running, tell me what your running from
Nobody's coming, what ya do that was so wrong.
Yeah, the civil suit is where she'll make her money.
What's interesting to me is why she didn't have all those exotic weapons locked in a safe. Or did I miss something?
If true, I hope the lawsuit goes well, and the moral is: LOCK UP YOUR GUNS WELL!
I used to think it was the weak person who needed a god, now I know it takes a strong person to follow God.
My Feedback
The only way I can see for this to slow down or stop if every time it happens the police get the crap sued out of them! Then it would't be financially wise to confiscate guns illegally.
