    Angry This has got to be bull ****

    I recently moved in with some one on probation, talked with there PO and he told me a. I'm not allowed to have even my edc knife in the house at all regardless of lock or other measures, and told me I had to keep it in my car.

    now he says I can not even have it in my car, so I will now need off sight storage. this HAS to be an over reach my my second amendment rights. I would move but i just signed a 14 month lease.

    this has to be his PO overstepping his boundries.


    any one have advise?

    thanks 7th moose

    You're not on probation. He has no authority over you. Worst that can happen is you end up with the place all to yourself.

    I don't see how the probation officer has any business searching though any of your stuff.


    Best bet would have been to not talk to him at all, you have no reason to.

    If your buddy is on probation and living in your domicile the Officer needs no warrant to execute a search.Seems the officer may be exercicising his discretion over the circumstances of the reason the buddy is on probation in the first place.Wish you luck !

    YOU are not on probation. He has no control over YOU. But he does have authority over your roommate. Because you live in the same location, the PO can enter and search without a warrant for any or no reason. You buddy cannot have, or have access to, weapons.

    So, I see no reason why YOU cant have whatever you want, locked in a box/container, under your bed or in your closet, or behind a locked bedroom door, that only YOU have access too. The PO has no right or authority to search area where the supervised person has no access.

    YOU can have a gun and chose to leave it lying on the kitchen counter. But if the PO comes in, your buddy gets taken away.

    What are the terms of your buddy’s probation? The court can set any restrictions on your buddy they want. I had someone that wanted to live with me and the terms were crazy, no guns, no bows, no reloading equipment, etc, etc. That person does not live with me, found a wonderful place in Syracuse NY.

    Your not being punished, your buddy is. You had no problem until your buddy moved in.
