Meanwhile, back at the topic...
Howdy Folks!
Not being snarky there, just trying to redirect the thread back to the situation that gave rise to it.
I'd like to hear what's up with the OP. Any changes? Talked with a lawyer yet? Filed complaints? What's the latest on this issue?
Personally, I'd file criminal charges against the cop who drew his weapon with the District Attorney for assault with a deadly weapon. Assault isn't actually making physical attack, but the threat of imminent force. (i.e. assault and battery) - if I swing my fist at you, that's assault. If my fist arrives in the same space currently occupied by your nose, that's battery. Both taken together are assault and battery.
Anyhow, what's the situation now that the celebration of our liberties is over while this citizen's liberties were infringed and violated?
Blessings,
