Don't you feel that there must be a legitimate reason for it? Do you watch the news?

True but why put yourself out there in an already questionable situation. I will not hold my breath on settlements as that is questionable in its self. Leo does as LEO will. If they saw fit in this highly charged situation to detain, they will detain...period. Best to have let this go unless as you were doing, selling off useless iron not trying to interfere with the locals big show. That is merely my own humble opinion. I was not handcuffed at the curb.
I agree but it was "Their" show. Not to be interfered with. They will put you in cuffs just to make a point. Just not smart no matter what the law says. It is after all, what the law does. No slam, just fact.
The adults in the room are always entertained when kids go looking for trouble, get trouble, and then whine about getting trouble.
A kid drives all the way from Terre Haute to blatantly taunt the police at an advertised gun buy-back and you, somehow, blame the cops? Grow up, people. This kind of nonsense is exactly the kind of things the left uses to constantly beat the drum that says that none of us should have guns.
Going there with a sign to solicit transactions to buy guns, at their event, is stupid. Period. Responsible gun owners are glad he got to sit handcuffed for an hour. Perhaps he will show a bit more maturity before he does something as stupid the next time.
Maybe I'm just a putz, but my googlefu shows nobody posting anything about this site since 2009. Is it worthwhile/trustworthy?
Been off here for awhile, but this thread is going to be interesting!
Don't know. Haven't used it.
Someone mentioned it on here, and I saved it to my cell.
How does the rest of the world define "Police Custody"?
In other words, NO. This is not confirmed to be a reliable source of info to save you from a trip to jail for possession of stolen firearms, correct?
I think it's self evident that an individual who is legally in police custody is not a victim of kidnapping. A person held in custody by police when they lack legal authority to do so clearly IS such a victim.
To reinforce what has been said here, I have yet to see a law enforcement officer on duty with out a pistol, it is a well understood fact that if you don't comply with police you get shot/tazered/pepersprayed/or beat to submission.
He did comply.
Even if you call the PD, and they verify that it is not stolen, you can be arrested.
Then they will say it was entered into the PDs database after your call, but sitting on a desk somewhere...
So this has happened? Got a link?
