That's the problem. People don't take responsibility for themselves. They are too quick to pass blame onto others. Once people start taking responsibility for themselves then maybe things will start to change.

I got my saiga from JETAgent

Just look at what happened on Long Island with the ATF agent. Perp was recently released and look what he does when he gets out. He got out of jail for doing the same thing.

I like the dads against daughters dating ones

I agree. The problem is the lax legal system. Back in january I stopped a guy who jumped a turnstile. He shoves my partner and takes off. I tackle him and we fight for a good 5 minutes. All the while he is reaching for something by his stomach. After all is said and done we stand up. I search him and find a loaded revolver with 3 spent rounds. 26 and 3 felony convictions. Yet back on the street. Gun was from out of state. Criminal history was a novel at 26. When are they going to realize these people can't be out on the street. We got him on federal charges and he still only got 62 months. Yet I have missed a year of work, had 10 spinal injections and still have back and leg issues where I will need fusion surgery in the future. Sorry for the rant but I am fed up with the joke of a legal system.

So true. I may have to get that

I would be interested

You are correct. That summons is also acceptable as a replacement to a points violation. Failure to yield is extremely aggravating and a tough one to write because it's usually me they dont yield to when I am responding to a call

Looks like I will be joining real soon as well

Tell me about it. Talk about the home team getting the call their way.

That was a great game. Glad the Rangers pulled that one out

Technically the summons is correct but that is not something that it is normally written for. I would not write it for that.

I decided that there is no need to punish myself. I am fine with there being different opinions but others don't seem to be ok with my view of a situation. I in no way advocated demanding info but that apparantly didn't matter and many chose to attack my credibility as a LEO. this is something I take very seriously. I too get frustrated with the gun laws because the laws really don't stop the criminals from using them. They just get them elsewhere.

That was my point. I would ASK not DEMAND. Those flaming me chose to ignore that point. Oh well. I have decided that I really don't give a **** because nobody here really knows me.

If I ask and you decide to tell me that answer. Based on the totality of the circumstances I will take you at your word. I have that discretion. Its seems that I am now stereotyped as the cop who could care less about the law and I do what I want because i have a badge. You couldn't be more wrong. I am not looking for your approval on how I do my job because most of you have no idea what the job is like to be on. You want to attack my credibility and i have a major problem with that. Sorry I have an opinion different than the norm but I am allowed to ask what I want when I want. Your choice to answer or not. Think what you want about me. I don't need your approval. OP... stay safe out there and keep doing what you feel is right. I respect the hell out of that. All my other LEO's stay safe as well. After seeing what I am dealing with on this board and how quickly people are attacked for a difference of opinion. How quickly my credibility has come into question from strangers really breeds a lot of resentment for this forum. Looks like i will be spending far less time on here, if at all now, from now on. It's been fun.

Most of the time its the bosses because they don't have a clue. We also know perps do very stupid things.myour homeowner does sound like a responsible guy so I would ask but not really press the issue. I always ask whatever I want. It's subject choice to answer. If they have to answer but don't the I will charge obstructing. If they don't have to answer then good for them for knowing the laws. I am amazed at how quick people are to bash me. Oh well.

All I am saying is to ask the homeowner. If he protests then it's over. I will not MAKE him. I will search vehicles I pull over if I believe I have a reason to. I in no way look to violate people's rights but if I ask and you agree then it's on you. I am allowed to ask. I am not forcing anything on anybody. All it is is a mere inquiry. If you want to think I am part of the problem then so be it. I do not agree with the Sgt demanding it. There are a lot of different ways to handle a call. I in no way feel the op was wrong for doing what he did.

I may be taking a risk here with my opinion but here it goes. As a fellow LEO what I would have done is after subject was loaded into the bus I would have taken the homeowner aside and verified the firearm to be legal. While I am not looking to jam a fellow gun owner up I will surely cover my own a** since the firearm was mentioned on a taped line. If he has his papers great. If not I would check back at HQ. I find, with me anyway, it's when I don't check is when it comes back and bites me in the a**.

I want a Mosin now. I need to start looking for a nice one

Its too light and the smallest change really impact my accuracy. I never noticed it until I started shooting other handguns. I shoot so much better with my sig

I wish we would get rid of our g19's

Want to hear something even crazier. Police arent allowed to bring off duty weapons into the memorial. If I go off duty I have to check my gun.

Its a game called knockout kings. Unsuspected beating against defenseless individuals. There are new lows every day

Gift cards, clothes, theis iwb holster for my kahr, saiga 7.62 rifle, crimson trace laser for my kahr, some gym equip for my home gym and some various other small stuff. Plus everything I bought myself before xmas that my wife doesn't know about. My gift cards are going towards my sig scorpion

I am going to have to stop by this week also
