Cops who wish to ignore the law put themselves in a very bad set of circumstances....very bad. A badge will not help a cop when he is breaking the law himself.

Yes indeed. I just had another conversation with my fellow SGT from yesterday. He actually called the Board of Firearms and they told him exactly what I told him. You would think he gets it now but all I got is "Then I will get sued, it won't be the first time." :banghead: and that I live in a box, LOL! He's been behind a desk for years and I've been on the street. Who's in the box? He also said that they told him the head state's attorneys are getting together to enact legislation to clarify OC.

You should check about his other lawsuits .. can be used against him in a future hearing.

Since I dug it up for the other thread, I figured I would post it here as well:

1) the threatening presence of several officers; 2) the brandishing of a weapon by an officer; 3) some physical touching by an officer; 4) use of aggressive language or tone of voice indicating that compliance with an officer's request is compulsory; 5) prolonged retention of a person's personal effects ...; 6) a request to accompany the officer to the station; 7) interaction in a nonpublic place or a small, enclosed place; 8) and absence of other members of the public.

In my latest interaction I had #1, #2, #4, and #8 .. hence my questioning if I was detained/seized under the 4th amendment

Mr. Doutel had almost all 8 points ...

Well there is something we can agree with him about.
And the reason for the other Sergeant's cavalier attitude is that very likely he personally bears almost no consequence from being sued and having a judgement against him.
