Why it's important to not show ID to police when asked for no reason

Your response, as a moderator, lacks the courtesy any member deserves no matter what their position is. You are mocking positions differing from yours.

I find it humorous that snubbies has failed to even address my question which has been posed to him multiple times now:

It is a crime to kidnap children. If a lady calls 911 and reports a man eating dinner at McDonald's with one or more kids, according to the logic expressed by snubbies above, the cops can show up, detain the man at McDonald's and demand to see identification and proof that the kids with him are actually his. RIGHT? After all, the cops don't know if the man is a father or a kidnapper. And then, at the end of it all, if the woman complains to 911 that she was afraid for her own child's safety because the man might be a kidnapper, it's OK for the police to cite the man for disturbing the police. RIGHT? After all, the police were not there when the lady called, maybe the guy was "eyeing" her kids with a hungry look in his eyes. The police should have the freedom to do this and "let the courts settle it." RIGHT?

Hypothetical

I didn't respond because it is a ridiculous hypothetical and requires no answer. I thought you said you wouldn't talk to me anymore. I must admit I missed you.

Sorry, no. As a moderator I am just like every other user and subject to the same rules. I made no personal attacks and I am allowed to express my opinion just like you.

It is my opinion that people who actively campaign against open carry are on the side of the antis and should stay out of these discussions because they do more harm than good.

Proof that you make things up as you go.

Really?!? I believe this would be close enough to the ridiculous hypothetical:

I think that if you really believe it's your job to make a police officer's work day harder, there is something wrong with you.


If you are not violating the law, yet you still view yourself as in opposition to law enforcement, you have a problem.

Not allowing a police officer to overstep his bounds isn't making his job harder. It's making him do his job PROPERLY!

Will open carry be allowed in the crowd in attendance at his speech???

Once a thread goes from discussion to squabbling among a very few, there's little point to its remaining open...
