LEO on tape doesn't care to break the law!!!

[thumperdogg]

It is on youtube, the guy has a hidden recorder filing a complaint at the police station! This guy should be fired from the force for openly admitting to breaking the law and will continue to do so. Who is going to defend our 2A rights from cops like this??

Great to see a citizen have the balls to stand up to an officer who doesn't respect the rule of law and call him out on it multiple times.

Though the LEO was in fact illegally taking the gun from the civilian, I can definitely see where the officer is coming from at the police station. Does that make it justified? Of course not.

LOL!!! I would have INSTANTLY contacted a lawyer. This piece of audio would have been the only piece needed to win this man thousands in reparations. I SURE hope he is in contact with lawyers

Cliff notes:
Basically the cop says he will trample the OC-er's rights based on his opinions that all people are bad and that he wants to go home at night.

 

[henktermaat]

Wow - he's basically saying "my law is what I want" and the real law doesn't matter one bit.

the upload is only a week old, lets hope the person sues the crap out of him!

Seems to be a lot of that going around these days.

I bet that LT would be singing a different tune if it was his wife who was OC'ing and a cop took her down and took her weapon....

Just ridiculous.

Good for you being an aspiring LEO. I don't have a problem with LEO's, just a-holes!! I hope that you will help push the information of carrying throughout your career.

 

[IndyBeerman]

There's stupid, and then there's more stupid.

While I support the right to carry any way a person see's fit, carrying into a Police station whether legal or not, is not something I care to try or experience.

 

[cosermann]

I'm here to file a complaint. I'm not here to debate. I'm not here to argue. Are you going to take my complaint or not?

There's so much fail with this officer, it's unbelievable; poor logic, inapplicable analogies, double standards, etc. Fail, fail, fail.


Frankly, the fellow filing the complaint was much more professional than the officer involved.

indeed i will, i hope that at somepoint in my career i get to train and teach the younger officers the laws on guns so that they aren't misguided

We've been discussing this in MI for the last week. In fact, a LEO states they don't even have to take your complaint.

 

[Effingham]

Hell, the cop even says "go to your lawyer and sue the city."

So... do what he wants.

Sue the pants off 'em.

they have no problem breaking the law when they know somebody else will have to pay for it. the worst they are looking at is the brass telling them to make sure they dont get caught next time.

/facepalm
Credit to the gent recording this. Seriously.

Also, go get em... I wonder how this will end up going.

 

[jgarst]

Well done I would say. Stood his ground and acted very professional. Hopefully We find out the results.
