I didn't know I could call my local police department and have them run checks on my plates. Or potentially, someone else's plates.
That would be an IDACS/NCIC violation.

Do a ride-along and I'll let you play with the lights and siren, yell at people on the PA, and if it is New Year's Eve we'll shoot guns in the air like everyone else.
Would'nt you also have to level that same playing field and concede that all LEOs are not the same model as well?
Nope because I can guarantee I would Taze someone for something.
Not by me. I have defiantly made my share of mistakes. I have stopped the wrong cars ect. If that happens you don't BS your way out of it. You tell the person exactly what happened and why and hand them a compliant form. Funny thing is no one has ever filled one out on me for that scenario. Humans make mistakes.
So was there a violation that occured when the OP spoke to someone at the FPD and they ran his plates to confirm for him that there was information about an armed robbery in Virginia?That would be an IDACS/NCIC violation.

My only concession is that there are good and bad Cops and good and bad LTCH holders period. I will not try to quantify it with numbers to make any one classification out to be better than the other just because I am an LTCH holder.All LEO's are NOT models. We have one that is a down right criminal IMO and has been working while out on bond for the last year. You will never find me anywhere near him. His reckoning day is fast approaching. All cops are not perfect. But I can say with certainty that the ratio of good to bad between cops and LTCH is no where close.
I would LOVE to see more Tazeings. Anytime a suspect runs, he oughta be Tazed. It won't permanently hurt him (well at least most of the time ) but it should condition him to stop the next time he hears,"Stop or I'll Taze you!"

Good lord are you not reading anything posted on this thread. What was the stop for? The stop reason was even backed up with a follow up call by the OP. So as bad as many would like it too be it wasn't fabricated stopping charges. That person is going to be disarmed no matter who they are or what they have. Once again the LTCH don't mean jack until the stuff is sorted out. IMO the officers actions were quite subdued all things considered.
Keep in mind all the MDT hits and alerts are lead information only. They don't man a whole lot except the way you deal with the person and stop. They (the person) might be 100 percent innocent. They also very well may be 100 percent guilty and ready to throw down.
I am not buying into the crap that officers are jacking with people by stopping them on TS's after learning they have a LTCH and then making up some BS stopping charge. Ain't happening. Just about any cop in this state that wants to get into something and make arrests can do so almost at leisure these days. They don't have to make stuff up.
I usually only have one or the other. If I have both at the same time I get all jacked up on caffeine and sugar and can't concentrate on jack booting or dog shooting.

I read this to mean that you are going to pull them over and question them until they prove themsleves to be innocent to your satisfaction instead to knowing for certain and initiating a stop only when it is more likely than not that they are in violation of some law. If that is the case I don't think that is acceptable under the 4th Amendment.

This is what I was thinking about, when I read this thread.....
That's what I thought.
Perhaps I misunderstand the OP who *I thought* said he called the police station to verify that his plates were associated with an armed robbery? Would that not amount to the same sort of thing? Provided of course that the person he spoke to was being honest with him ...
