Re: Serious/ stressing contact with Retired Game Warden

srothstein wrote:First, a quick legal lesson. A retired game warden may be still commissioned as a special warden. This means he is still an active peace officer with full peace officer authority. This is also true for retired DPS troopers (called special Rangers) and retired TABC agents (called special agents - we have 94 currently, IIRC).
Shouldn't they have to indentify themselves if they are acting in an official capacity? To me saying you are retired doesn't say that you have any official standing. Also, if they have official standing shouldn't they have official identification to show me?
