Probation Officer Authority??
Sorry if this has been addressed before, I did a search but came up empty.
My question is this: What authority does a probation officer have over people who are not on probation?
I know they have "god like" authority over their little lambs, but what about us upstanding members of society?
The reason I ask is this morning I stopped at the Sheetz in Franklin for coffee. As I was leaving two probby officers were giving me the stink eye. I'm just wondering if they try giving me shit if I can tell them to pound salt in their asses and walk away.
Edit: Forgot to add that I was Open carrying.Last edited by spooter66; July 7th, 2011 at 09:01 PM. Reason: Added open carry.

I would go the pound salt option... A probation officer is NOT a LEO. They are very restricted in what they can do... Now, that being said, they can act like total jerks, as most POs are that I have ever encountered. There are some good POs out there, but it seems 96% of them I've met are really bullies that couldn't find another job with their level of "people skills"...

They were wearing their Batman utility belts, badges, and shirts that said "Probation Officer".
Has anyone else noticed that more and more Probation Officers are wearing batman belts trying to look like "real" police officers? The P.O.'s in this area are.
We also have a few female P.O.'s, a couple are pretty hot! Chick's with guns! What more can you ask for?Last edited by spooter66; July 7th, 2011 at 09:08 PM. Reason: Added last 2 sentences.

Walk right over to them and in a calm voice state "My dicks not small enough" and walk away.
It'll confuse them and everyone here will understand the meaning!
If God didn't intend us to have guns why would he have given us a trigger finger?

Re: Probation Officer Authority??
Please keep in mind that the restrictions on Parole/Probation officers as it pertains to general authority to include arrest is dictated by whatever jurisdiction or state they work for. Some states, a probation/parole officer is a sworn officer and has full law enforcement authority, not to mention the federal guys.
