All this over a gun? Since when is having a gun illegal in the United States ("shall not infringe")?

CBS 2's investigation shows that the raid on Young's home was completely avoidable if Chicago police had done the bare minimum to vet the information on the search warrant. The warrant was based on a tip from a confidential informant, who had provided the wrong address for a man suspected of having an illegal gun. The suspect lived next door to Young.

You 2A conservatives are crazy if you don't think these cops wouldn't come knocking on your door if the time came to confiscate them.

Once again name your bad actor throughout history, they’d never had advanced their goals absent police and military. Police are the pointy spear of every law written by megalomaniac politicians. They will advance the edicts of the ones who pay and feed them.


I find it especially fun while in traffic when you see the come and take it stickers next to the thin blue line stickers, who do you reckon is gonna come and take it? Lol Or better yet, the don’t tread on my license plates they pay extra extortion money for. Don’t tread on me indeed. You can’t make this sh*t up. Lol

Had my first experience with THP today. And boy it was a doozy. For context, I am working from home, and my wife is currently 5 months pregnant, working as an Intensive Care Unit RN.

Wife leaves work this morning around 8 AM after working 14 hours taking care of extremely ill COVID patients all night. Gets stopped by THP for doing 57 in a 45. Not taking up for her, but it is a bit of a speed trap. So he starts the 20 questions stuff. Where you been, where you going etc. This drags on for almost an hour. She has her scrubs on with her work badge on. What pisses me off, is she had to call me to come pick her up due to being so damn sleep deprived she didn't feel safe to drive. So I take an hour of vacation to go take care of this. Issues a $300 ticket.

This evening I leave to go to the gym. I pass a THP officer on my little city road. Whips around and pulls me over. Says I was doing 45 in a 30. I was following 2 other vehicles. Officer claims " all 3 of you were speeding, but you were the easiest one to pull over." What kind of luck is this shizz? So I am in a rental since I wrecked my truck. I have had this rental since the shops are having a hard time getting all the parts. Dude absolutely drills me on why I have had a rental for for 46 days. I proceed to get the 20 questions. I knew he had a ticket in his hand, so I eventually say, "sir, I need to get to the gym so I can get back before a meeting at work." He hands me the ticket and says "Merry Christmas." $270 ticket. This whipping around and claiming they clocked someone doing such and such is speed while driving is a joke. I'm not even sure how fast I was going since I was just following the cars in front of me. More upset with how my wife was treated. Debating on attending the court dates.

If caught speeding or what have you I'm fine with the ticket but don't lecture me. I had a 20 something GPD officer pull me over and started lecturing me a while back, I just told him either write the ticket and shut up or let me go. He wrote the ticket and I got it dismissed.

Some would but the majority wouldn't. Federal officers absolutely would.

I used to live in a suburb of Los Angeles. A very safe place. Police there existed to give law-abiding citizens $300 tickets.

I still support the police but I don't expect them to support me.

Only thing wrong with this is that had this been a foreclosure on a regular citizen, there wouldn't have been an hours worth of negotiating and the lawyer wouldn't have been locked out of the property while the owner gets things settled. Those cops would have been ripping s#^t off the walls and ransacking the place from the jump. Still, need more cops terrorizing these banksters and other white collar criminals.

Cops get a bad rap these days. But, this is my main issue with law enforcement these days. Their directive seems to be to harrass law abiding citizens and steal their hard earned money. It appears to be like low hanging fruit to them.

How on earth does one expect, in this case, the Trooper to know if the drivers of the speeding cars (illegal btw) to know said drivers are law abiding citizens. Troopers are traffic cops, they write tickets and work wrecks...thats about 90-95% of their job description. The 2 troopers in question were on duty, saw an infraction and cited the drivers. They get paid to keep the roads safe. It is not theft, it’s a fine. Much like a late fee on your cable bill.
Now if you wanna talk about masks mandates and things like that, I’ll get on board with ya
