Positive "Non-encounter"

H&K P2000 in .40. Not much of a fan of it, either.

Nope, not a fan of that.

So, you were being "detained" by a LEO

actually, he really should have asked him what the hell he wanted and tape recorded his ass...


(kidding guys, just having a little fun from the discussion another thread).


honestly, my experiences have been friendly like that with LEO I have encountered, even when I'm getting a warning or cited for my screwups like late with registration or inspection..

Craving that much for attention Jan? ....tsk tsk tsk tsk.

It just isn't fair. Sometimes, my scooter doesn't trigger the traffic light contact loops, so I'm sitting there for one or two cycles in the left turn lane until either a car pulls up behind me or I run the red light. I once did that right in front of a police cruiser! And what do you know, the officer just looked the other way. I am sure, if I'd been driving a big SUV or truck, he would have pulled me over for that. This double standard borders on discrimination. That's what is happening here. As if writing a ticket for a scooter rider is below an officers dignity!

My cheek hurts.

Some day, I swear, I will violate some serious traffic rules just to get first hand experience myself. These cops around here just never pull me over for speeding on a motor scooter. Oh well, I'll put an NRA sticker on it tomorrow, maybe that will get their attention.


Jan

Just go out wearing a string bikini and a side arm tomorrow, guaranteed you'll get stopped

It's not everything you would think it is. I was stopped twice, once local PD and once State, and not once was I asked if there were any weapons in the car.

If you are there for more than 2 traffic cycles , and can safely proceed , do so. I asked that question to my MSF instructor who happened to be a local LEO, and his response was to do just what I stated above. They know these things happen , and if I am correct , I came across a House Bill that addresses this very issue.

Then there will be 18 pages as to why you can't wear a IWB with a G string , another 10 stating why you can do it, 2 people saying they did it and 1 person stating " pics or it didn't happen" .

You forgot the 7 pages of requests for eye bleach, all of which will happen within the first 15 minutes after the claim is posted lol.

I did not include that in the event "Jan" was of the female type.
