Re: Houston woman arrested for asserting her constitutional
I think they both escalated the situation into something it shouldn't have been. I'm not sure how you construe my comments as support - and I'm not sure how my "blind support" for the officer is different than yours for the lady, but TBH, I'm not really that interested in arguing the point. I find the whole situation more humorous than appalling - but maybe it's because I deal with similiar issues on a daily basis.thenick_ttu wrote:So you're saying the woman made an unwise tactical decision in using her right to Freedom of Speech? As in, she should have known that expressing her rights would land her in jail for a "bogus" charge by a LEO? I understand all you LEO type like to stick together but this seems to be a pretty clear case of police using their authority to get "revenge" on a civilian for no darned good reason... I would think any self-respecting LEO would be appalled by this type of behavior and yet this is at least the second time you have blindly supported an LEO when it seems the LEO was clearly out of line. This is the perfect situation for a :facepalm: smiley.gigag04 wrote:My advice to te officer and the woman, is to pick your battles carefully.

Re: Houston woman arrested for asserting her constitutional
Nobody is losing their CHL over class C Transportaion Code violation, which is what she was arrested for.
My advice to te officer and the woman, is to pick your battles carefully.
