We dont need no breaks. If you go on a Chase, the only correct thing to do is yell "Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwww"

Are you not taking the same us-versus-them approach?
No. I don't initiate the interaction, and I don't assume every LEO is a threat.

I hope you realize I was talking about a specific mindset, not all cops. I tried to state that clearly.
Understood. I will inform you that every LEO perceives you as a possible threat - don't take it personal. Most of us can still be professional and even polite - but I WILL be going home at the end of my shift with same number of holes that I came on with.

I highly recommend anyone that doesn't understand what being a city cop is like sign up for a ride. It's eye opening really.
I almost did a Ride along in Jonestown, but it sounded terrible (2 am-6am bleh)

You offering Ride alongs? Can we take our CCW? Can I play with the Siren? I'm bringing Show-Tunes!

Possible. He didn't say what type of pistol it wa he was carrying, so it could have been an AR-15 pistol, which would have a clip.
Maybe he was carrying a Mauser C96
The only AR-15 Pistol i've seen used Magazines.

Re: Disarmed

To be fair, he threw the gun in the back seat. Now if he made an arrest based on something he found in the back, whole 'nother story.

You might want to be a bit more circumspect when lampooning another poster given your regular use of "alot" (a non-word) among others...

I bought a set of Hogue rubber grips for my Ruger SP101 for $15.00 on line.

Your Pistol had a clip? :biggrinjester:

I guess its good he was smart enough to unload the gun.

I wouldnt have asked why he took your gun, he legally can, I dont see the problem.
