I can leave out guns, (bug)bombs, and idling Ducati motorcycles in every room in the house (except the Ducati's we're talking finite engine time) if I am of a mind.

Re: Bad LEO Encounter last night
Does anyone here agree that police state/authoritarian rule are amenable if the motivation is understood?
My guess is no one here agrees to that, thus: When an officer behaves in this manner he needs to be corrected immediately by his superiors and should either be placed on probation and observed or fired.
When an officer waves the red flag of autocracy, rookie or veteran, you've got a problem officer.

I think your wife should write the letter to compliment the good cop and also describe how the bully with a badge made her cry.

Re: Bad LEO Encounter last night
I am a former LEO. Had an officer told my wife that, I would have called him or met him and asked him to provide the section and paragraph in the Penal Code that gave him the right to make that statement and to eventually confiscate my weapons. I then would have shown him the section and paragraph that talks about official oppression and malfeasance in office, pointed out the fourth amendment and second amendment and let him know that morons like him are what gives the good cops a bad name and keeps civil rights attorney's employeed. Then again my Dad always did say diplomacy was not a virture with me.
