We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

I never gave LEO my name and DOB. They put surveillance teams on me and followed me around. They just took my license plate down.

And why I think random plate checks should be checked.

I don't doubt that at all. I received a phone call from one Officer Allen Bass his first words to me was my gun brought me to his attention so he ran my plates and......
When I requested the files, he told 911 it was for a suspected hit and run...I checked the dates and reports for that week.....no hit and runs.

The question is designed to antagonize. He should do exactly what he is doing: ignoring it. Good on him.

Yea, but he never ran the Obamalama chk for me .... bummer.
Maybe he's a-scared to do it ...
maybe the truth is he never ran a warrants check on her because he had no reason to believe she had warrants.
maybe he never ran a warrants check on her because he didn't want the results to come back as affirmative for warrants.

How can you complain about this? Dude... you are in their heads! Seriously, most people would have to pay money for the attention you're getting for free!
Sure, on a certain level it could be annoying in some way, but just think; someone thinks of you so much that they're going out of their way to take an action they wouldn't otherwise be doing. It's like someone being so paranoid that they check their mirrors for blue lights even when they are going 5mph under the speed limit, but in this case it's the cops doing the checking, not you.
Revel in this. Sit back, enjoy an adult beverage and just revel in the knowledge that you are always on their minds, even when you're nowhere near.
My proudest moment on another forum was when someone claiming to be a local deputy said (paraphrasing), "We know who he is, we have his description and his tag number. We don't even respond to the calls about him anymore." Since that was my purpose all along, I couldn't have been happier.

If everyone removed their state issued ID (Plates) from their mode of travel then these random warrant checks would be few and far between and many, many tyrants would need to get a real job.

Getting back to license plates for a moment.
When a person purchases and is assigned a license plate, they are unknowingly entering into a contract with the state, hence giving all your personal information to the state and availing yourself to all law enforcement inquiries while your traveling with the issued plates.

I would like an America where police go after serious criminals who harm people.
I would like an America where police do NOT target innocent citizens for engaging in constitutional rights.

How exactly does a cop check to see if a warrant has been issued on a citizen. It seems to me that a name and DoB is required. So, how does a cop obtain those two pieces of information.
If I am watching or filming a cop he can not run me for warrants because I have not provided my name or DoB. If he asks me for my name and DoB I will refuse. Of course, I could be arrested and then searched, incident to arrest, and he will obtain my name and DoB. Then, obviously, I will have this on record via a audio recording, and seek a redress of wrongs.
Cops can run LPs and then hope the drive of the vehicle is the perp. If the driver is not the perp the cop retains the RAS to hassle a LAC because the registered owner of the car has a warrant issued for his arrest.
If the cops do not have the OPs name or DoB, I think he said that, then his contention is false (the thread title). If they do have his name and DoB they could run him for warrants whether or not he is filming or whether or not he is even in the vicinity of 'X'. The legality of running him for warrants every day is a different matter and we would likely never know, nor would the OP, that he was run for warrants.
I contend that the OP is making a mountain out of a mole hill for his own self aggrandizing purposes.

Therein lies the problem. The violation of privacy occurred (possibly) when the information was first obtained. Did the cops obtain the information unlawfully.
As far as running for warrants, that is only a problem if they are doing so to harass a person and if the person actually is harassed as a result.
The only real complaint the OP could file, as far as I can tell, is that the cops are wasting tax (our) dollars on a fool's errand.
[On the question marks: I do that all the time too. Why is it so hard for me (and at least one other poster) to remember to hit the "?" key at the end of a question?]
