DUI Checkpoint Video

I'm not saying there's a good chance of that happening, but why even take the risk at all? It's not like you can just stroll on down to the court and tell the judge you didn't do it and have the case dropped. At best you come out of it without doing any jail time while paying thousands in lawyer fees.

When I bought my house a few years back I had been living there for about 6 months when I was doing some work in the garage one day. I was cleaning stuff off of this home made shelf deal way up in the joists when I found a revolver with the serial numbers filed off. I ended up calling the cops and they sent an officer out to get it with no questions asked. But what if I hadn't known about that and I voluntarily let an officer search my place at some point? They could end up finding a throwaway gun that has ties to a murder and now I'm getting charged or at least getting interrogated. None of which sounds appealing to me so I'd much rather never take the risk.

Some cops get recognition or feel self worth by just throwing someone in prison. You've seen those shows where guys are wrongly accused and the evidence supports it, yet the initial cop that filed the charges never admits that he was wrong. He would rather send an innocent man to prison for the rest of his life than just admit he was wrong and that he had the wrong guy. Not all cops are like that but you don't want to take the chance of running into one that is.
 
I also watch shows about lighting striking people, but Im not particularly scared of lightning. I don't have anything to hide.
 
Absolutely spot on analogy there dude. Oh well there's just no communicating with the nothing to hide crowd. I hear the NSA is hiring folks that think like you.

Which one is more likely to happen?

Wasn't there. Would he have asked if you weren't a jerk?

Do you have a reading comprehension problem? I only became a jerk when he insisted to let him in my house.

To recap:

1. Cop knocks on my door, asks t turn the music down
2. I comply, apologize, and wish him a merry day
3. He then looks in my house and asks me if I'm serving underage folks
4. I say, "No sir, we are not"
5. He says "You mind if I come in for a minute to make sure?"
6. I say "Yes, I do mind, you are not welcome in my house."
7. He says "Excuse me? What do you mean by that?"
8. I said, "I don't consent to you entering my house without a warrant. Have a nice day"
9. He then tries to intimidate me and calls his cop friends
10. I go back in my house and enjoy my party - 10 min later, 3 cop cars all outside of my house
11. I go outside to ask what the problem is. Cop tells me that they believe I'm serving underage folks and want to come in to verify.
12. I say no.
13. They inform me how much trouble I'm going to be in
14. I then start being a dick and mocking them and asking them why they are spending so much time at my house while real crime is happening
15. They get upset. Get told by their boss to leave.

So, I'll ask once again, would you have let the cop in your house to start questioning your guests?
 
I'm still waiting on some sort of timeline for the government to take us over and live in a 1984 scenario. Its so easy to say, "IT'S COMING!!! BEWARE." And in 100 years when it doesn't happen we are all dead so you're never wrong.

Why did you go outside and confront the cops the second time?

LOL... I can't help you. $17 trillion in debt. The federal government runs everything. The DHS is stocking up, new laws have been passed for complete takeover, new executive orders have been signed for complete takeover. The government has been caught spying on over 100 million Americans. Drones are now flying over the US. Laws are being passed to help disarm the people.

It's all coincidence in your world. I hope you're right and they are just passing these things for fun because they are bored. But history tells a different story every time.

As usual, you have no answer for my question. But I will continue to answer yours.

The cop asked me to turn the music down. I did. When three more cops are sitting outside of my house. I went out to asked why they were there?

Is that unreasonable? If you have 3 cops outside your house with lights flashing, are you not going to ask what the issue is?

Now, answer my question.

So America has become a police state before?
 
sturg33 said:
Yes. Because if 3 cops are sitting outside of your house, you wouldn't ask them why they are there.

Didnt you already know why they were there? You walked outside to act like a tough guy to the cops. If the cops were sitting outside, why would you be concerned?

Once again. You have not answered my question. But I will answer yours.

I wanted to see if they had any other issues because otherwise I wanted them off my property. Which is what I told them and it is why they left. They were starting to concern my guests and it was becoming an issue. So I asked if they had a warrant to come in my house and if not, to leave. Their boss told them to leave. My party resumed without flashing coplights through every window.

So, you want to answer my question now?

LOL... If you have ever downloaded an MP3 song you are a criminal

There are so many laws in this country that everyone is guilty of something. That is why we have the highest incarceration rate in the world... in the land of the free

There isn't going to be a big take over or FEMA camps or anything like that, but there is some shady **** going on out there that people don't always notice or give much thought to. The house just voted to continue tracking our phone calls. The gov has been knocking on the doors of ISP's asking for passwords. It's pretty scary when you think about it. They do all this stuff somewhat secretly because people are wasting their time arguing Zimmerman, left vs. right and abortions. When people catch wind of it they are calmed by the gov saying that they're doing it to "prevent terrorism" or they just simply say "have you forgotten 9/11?" because Americans all over the country are locked in their homes and afraid to go anywhere for fear of another terrorism attack.
