I have a friend - he is in his 2nd year as a township cop - he says this burfle all the time. I stopped at the crosswalk to allow the kindergarten kids to walk by. Guess who was the crossing guard? Yup. I rolled down the window and told him to keep his head down or risk losing his life. P1tch is going about it the wrong way. Not going to get one person on here to join him. He should run for local government and seek change.
DC is a symptom, not the cause. The cause is basic voter stupidity and economic ignorance.

I tend to believe that most, if not all, posters on here understand the difference between working undercover in a gang unit in LA or NYC and working in suburbia where a soccer mom driving over the speed limit is the most action one will get most days.

They have to change. The rules for assaulting someone, pointing a gun at someone and shooting some one are different if it's between a cop and a citizen than if it's between a citizen and citizen.

Two separate thoughts. OUR rights, as citizens don't (or shouldn't) change, regardless of whether we're interacting with another citizen or a cop. In reality, our right MUST change, because cops can do things to citizens that, if done by ME to another citizen in the identical situation, would result in me being arrested and imprisoned.

For example....
If I see a speeding/dangerous motorcycle driver, pull a gun on him at a stop light and claim that I thought he had a gun in his waistband, what would happen to me? The cop that did this was suspended for 5 days. That's it. Motorcyclist sues King County detective who pulled gun on him at traffic stop The lawsuit alleges the King County detective used excessive force in dealing with the motorcyclist during a traffic stop, and that the county failed to train and supervise its officers adequately. It seeks unspecified monetary damages. A motorcyclist who had a King County Sheriffâ€s Office detective point a gun at him during a traffic stop last year has sued the officer and the county. Alex Randall, of Shoreline, filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court this week, claiming detective Richard Roweâ€s actions lacked legal justifications. A video of the encounter taken with Randallâ€s helmet camera showed Rowe pointing a gun at Randall, cursing and threatening to “dump†him if he moved his motorcycle. Sheriff Mitzi Johanknecht in April suspended Rowe for five days without pay, citing his “excessive use of profanity†and lack of courtesy. She didnâ€t punish Rowe for pulling his gun, saying she believed the officer when he claimed he thought Randall may have had a weapon in his waistband. https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-new...ffic-stop/

I will not waste my time to watch but I will tell you when I have fond myself in a threatening situation I will get loud and I will swear. That is me letting them know they are forcing me to make a decision they will not like if they do not stop the behavior which is causing the fight response.

In most states, citizens are able to make citizens arrests, but that's beside the point. Second, pulling someone over doesn't require a fun being drawn. So if I just approached a reckless motorcycle rider, to tell him he being reckless, with my gun drawn that would be ok?
