jacked by police

Last Saturday I was sitting at my table under the tree in my front yard. I was showing my springfeild 1911 to a friend. A few minutes later 3 police cars showed up. They said someone drove by claiming I pointed the gun at them. They were going to arrest me for harvested assault. After an hour in cuffs they took my 1911 and left. No paperwork no receipt no nothing. Said they would be back to take me to jail. After a week no cops and no gun back? What's wrong with this picture?

I'll bet you won't do that, again. When all this over and you find out, you broke no law, you will still be a marked man. Most cops, have long memories. ..

Be Safe !!!

There isn't hardly a day that goes by where I don't make a "Bone-Head" move. Seem the older I get, the more I make. Last week I get busted by a local small town LEO. I was 100% wrong and he let me slide. ....

During our limited conversation, he said that the way I was driving, he expected to find an "seventeen year-old, bunk-faced kid, behind the wheel." I thanked him for the compliment and letting me slide. .....

Be Safe !!!
