See, now that is bullshiet and that cop, by just his answers given to the reporter in my opinion was banking on this guy not getting it back. For all we know, they'd get a percentage of everything they confiscated and while that is not lawful in its own sense, it's not to say don't happen. That is almost the 'good ol boy' mentality I speak of, just in a more modern sense. First, I would hide the money if I had to carry it to prevent it from being stolen by car jackers or whatever. I would also not tell the leo he could search my vehicle without pc... I also, after all said and done, (never carry that kind of money no matter what the reason), but I would assuredly not sign off saying I wouldn't sue them. This classic bs in every shape and form.

Next month, we'll be driving out to Nashville to visit the in-laws and we never carry cash over a $100 in our pockets. We use debit or credit cards if need be till we get there, then if we need to, we'll withdraw cash from a bank. Geeze...

LoL still carry cash?

 

I think the only thing I carry cash for is a couple bucks for some wawa coffee goodness. I charge everything I can. Mostly because I pay everything on time and I can track 90% of my spending.

Just for fast food, small stuff, etc. Always keep some emergency cash in wallet. Use mostly my debt card for everything. Hardly anything gets paid through the ail if anything anymore. All electronic. Now if they'd only get rid of cash and plastic and embed a chip or something in our head. Lol... Stick a probe in our ear to add credit.

A lot of spin on this one. What do expect his support website to say?

 

How about asleep behind a closed bank in a dark area at o-dark-thirty with loaded weapons in plain sight in the back seat? Oh, they forgot to mention that little detail. Being an ex-LEO traveling from MA to TX he should have known better.

 

I read many reports about this at the time.

 

He parked under a bright light at the bank to sleep specifically because he could not legally, under the federal firearms owner protection act, take his firearms out of the vehicle while staying in a hotel room. All of his weapons were unloaded and cased. The man was cognizant and attempted to comply with the FOPA in every way. The officer identified a duffle bag as a gun case because he stores his firearms in a similar case? Really, come one?

I used to live on the street where the bank in question located, less than 1/4 mile away. There is no bright light in the parking lot. In fact, his vehicle was snuggled up against the bushes in the corner.

 

The weapons involved were NOT unloaded and at least two WERE in plain sight.. I don't know what you read or where you read it. Not that I question your integrity nor intent, The facts are this guy blew it in so many ways it is ridiculous. This guy failed to show for trial and the Feds had to pick him up.

 

To be clear - I personally fully support FOPA, CCW and 2A. I wish he had been in compliance and we could have had a local test of NJ's draconian firearms laws. None of that matters, though, in this case. He was wrong and got the opportunity to be a guest of NJ. Must be a pleasant visit for an ex-cop.

The link expires for security reasons from the DoC website. For the lazy:

 

If you want to make a statement, put something on the back of your car that only people in the know will understand.

I would never put a NRA logon on my truck. However, I got both these on the back of my truck (Would happily add something subtle for NJGF if it was available). Anyone who recognizes those logos is not going to give me a hard time about firearm ownership.

That's how I used to get phone numbers of cute waitresses. Works every time.

The only sticker I have is, "Keep honking... I'm reloading."

First is spikes tactical...lol..it says it on there

Picture of decal from website says © Spikes. The decal is just a chrome spider.

Anyone who recognizes that logo is likely to be pretty cool about the second ammendment. ;-)

I did not recall having read that he had a loaded handgun, that was dumb agreed, but I still argue the premise behind the profiling of a license plate being from a "pro-gun" state and being charged with hindering for refusing to consent to the search is total BS. The officer claimed he saw the closed duffle-bag in the back seat and asked to search the vehicle because his stores his firearm in a similar duffle-bag. Total BS!

Did you miss the part where the weapons WERE in clear sight?

What I recall reading was the cop stating he saw a “duffle bag” similar to one he uses to store his weapons in. I never read that any weapons were in plain sight, even the cop testified about the duffle bag is what he saw in the back seat . Last I heard seeing a duffle bag in the back seat does not constitute probable cause... Bottom line the comment on several occasions that he suspected the vehicle had firearms because it had Texas plates is enough to turn my stomach. What next, if your car is registered to a Camden, Trenton or Newark address it is automatic probable cause to search your car for drugs? I still call BS!

Peace

I need someone with graphic arts skills. I want the Grateful Dead dancing teddybears holding an ARs and AKs and the Grateful Dead skull with Punisher teeth.
