To be alarmed or not to be?

I didn't name you did I?  I stated that it was an overall feeling.  If you go back and read some of the other stuff posted there is a general distaste and distrust of law enforcement.

I never mentioned any poster by name. 

I am using generalizations with the verbage in place to state that I am using generalizations just like you are. 

Example of a situation where a cop could not ask for ID just occured in S. Portland ME when a off duty national guardsman walked down the sidewalk with an AR-15 in plain view.  Nothing illegal about it.  A cop can walk up and ask for ID, does not mean it has to be supplied depending on the area, the local laws etc....  the individual states that the gun was not loaded, however, the cops were not allowed to check the weapon to see if it was loaded or not.  If the weapon had been in a vehicle and the individual was pulled over for speeding they could have then checked the weapon to see if it was loaded.

There are semantics in the law just as there are semantics in posts. 

You are choosing to nit pick my verbage vs. studying and looking at the overall ramifications of one person being allowed to do something over another persons right not to be exploited. 

I also used the example of the girl on the street.  The street girl could be 19, but the girls behind the door might not be.  How is the cop supposed to find that out?  Very difficult to get probable cause to go in.  It's very unlikely for the johns to call in that type of stuff. 

Like I have stated before I really don't care if you sell your body.  I do care when that right increases other peoples risks.  If you personally are okay with the risks and you made an informed decision and were not forced into that profession then that is on you. 


What's on your mind?
