Dap Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 I'm glad to see that these checkpoints actually catch a few bad guys once in a while. Well done, Pattaya Police. Doesn't necessarily need to be a "bad guy" just because he conceals a weapon in his car or happens to have a small quantity of drugs for personal consumption. In fact, I would guess that at any given moment, there are loads of otherwise law abiding folk in this fair country doing exactly the same thing. He just got caught Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, we all go around with guns and drugs I have driven all over Florida with a loaded Smith & Wesson .38 in my glove compartment. I have also had a stick or two of weed on me at times. My gun was completely legal. I never got caught with a small amount of personal use weed. This guy was just unlucky in that he had both at the same time and got caught at an idiotic 'checkpoint'. The article does not mention whether his weapon was legal or not, but I suppose the two together would automatically make it illegal. Random searches seem to be fine for socialists/fascists/communists, but the cops in Nanny State Florida (20 years ago) at least needed a reason to stop me. It was dark and my tag light had burned out = he had a reason to pull me over. Cop asked me if I had any weapons in the car. I said "Yes, there's a loaded .38 in the glove box". He was cool about it...somewhat...called for backup & asked me to step out. He pulled it out and unloaded it, as his Sgt arrived. Dispatch came back with NOTHING wrong about me or my license. He insisted on reloading it (told him no problem I'd take care of that). He said "No, I'm going to put it right back the way I found it", and he did. He reloaded it, put it back into the holster, and back into the glove box. He gave me a verbal warning about my tag light. Today they'd probably tackle me and release the hounds.

It is lawful to carry drugs and guns? If it is unlawful then unlawful = bad? He is a guy hence "bad guy"? That is straight forward for me to understand.

hawker9000 Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 I'm glad to see that these checkpoints actually catch a few bad guys once in a while. Well done, Pattaya Police. Agreed. While other agencies are preoccupied with octogenarian bridge-players, good to see the police doing something useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
