Game Officer harassment

[Michele]

I thought you would get a kick out of this.

I was in Warren today. I went into Burger King to get a soda and pee.

I'm standing on line in the ropes and a man behind me says "hey, you have a license to carry that". Now, I was c/c however, PRINTING BADLY. So I turn around and its 2 Game commission officers or Game whatevers. I did see their logo truck in the parking lot when I left.

Me: Its none of your business, sir.
Him: Yes it is, and I have the authority to ask you especially that you're obviously not a resident of PA. (he must have tuned into my Brooklynese speech)
Me: Um, no, you don't have any authority to ask me anything. Why don't you go and harass someone else.
Him: You can be arrested for failing to answer my question. I have the authority.
Me: being a bitch, put my shirt behind my gun so now I'm O/Cing. Now arrest me for legally O/Cing on private property being you have the authority.
Him: Are you taunting me?
Me: Are you harassing me about doing something perfectly legal on private property that is absolutely none of your business?
Him: I'm not harassing you. I just want to know if you have a license to carry that.
Me: Its none of your God damn business! And yes, you certainly are harassing me, and I've now had my fill of listening to your bullshit. Don't say another word to me or I will be calling 911. Have a nice day.

Wow that was harsh........ What "HE" did was not right , but no reason to attack his position/job. Wildlife officer have all the authority of a police officer in the state of PA and in most states. They, by the nature of the individuals they deal with are almost 100% gaurenteed to be dealing with an armed person ( hunters ). They have every right to be called and respected as a law enforcement officer. Because this one or two officers questioned a person that was admittedly printing you call them a "wannabe". I would be worried if they didnt question a person with a concealed weapon in a fast food resturant. Im not trying to start a fight here , im just saying these guys deserve repect for the job they do. They go through 6 months of trainning to become wildlife officers the same amount of time a police officer goes through. They may not focus on everything a police officer does , but I dont see a LEO out on the river or tromping through the woods checking that people are complying with laws.

Pwned. This is almost too funny to be true.

Show me where WCO's go through ACT120!

No ACT 120, no Authority.

Pwned. This is almost too funny to be true.

See, I understood his "problem". He obviously suffers terribly from LDS (little dick syndrome)
I failed to mention that he was only about an inch taller than me. He couldn't very well pick on a man, so he decided to pick on a woman.

Understandably he's got some some authority. However, it is a total abuse of power to hassle women in Burger King. The word authority does not mean 'yes, I can'.
Had I been breaking some law, I should have been arrested.

He harassed me, and violated my right to privacy, in a private establishment.

They were definitely Pennsylvania Game Commission. They had the patches on their sleeves.
The truck logo said Pennsylvania Game Commission and had a deer on it and some critters.
