Well fellow patriots I just got out of jail 2 hours ago. Yup was coming home from work tonight at 1700 hours . Was getting ready to turn into my street when a county policeman puts on his lights. I immediately pulled over. Got out of the car and the officer told me that I was pulled over for not having a FRONT tag, we both went to the front on the vehicle and sure enough no tag. Officer asked for my License and registration. I said "I don't mean to be a smart ass but are you allowed to pull me over in the city when you are a county officer" He responded yes according to fresh pursuit I said I knew that it applied in felon cases but not traffic stops. He then said what are you a lawyer or something. I said no I was once a State Trooper. He said I must have been asleep during that class. I said OK and handed him my license and registration. He started walking back to his car when he turned around and told me to get in my car, I said I prefer to stand outside he said get in the car or get arrested I said then I guess you'll have to arrest me. He handcuffs me and puts me in the back of the car he then calls for back-up 2 other officer respond. He never read me my rights or what I was arrested for. He then starts to ask me questions I said I want to speak to my lawyer. He continues to ask questions I said I want to speak to a lawyer. He then calls a tow truck to have my car towed I said I live in this neighborhood and it doesn't need to be towed he responded they have to tow it. Mean while my neighbors are walking past seeing me arrested. I'm disabled and I told the officer that the position I was in was hard on my disability he then ask me what were my disabilities (fractured L1-L5, arthiritis in my neck etc) It took them 1 hour just to get me to the station; then the officer leaves me in the car with windows up a/c on but couldn't feel it for over 10 minutes. He gets back in and starts asking me questions again I said I want a lawyer. He then threaten me with not getting bond etc. I asked to speak to his supervisor ( what a joke). Finally they get me in the station another officer starts to process me and asking me question I said I want a lawyer he threatened me with a possibility of 48 hours in lockup if i don't answer the questions I said do what you have too but I'm not saying anything. They put me in lockup finally they let me call my lawyer. Right after talking to my lawyer a different supervisor comes in the cell to tell me that they will issue me a citation and release me. Which is what they did. My lawyer picked me up; went to get my car $110 to tow my car 1 mile. You might ask why didn't you get in my car. 1) it was around 95 degrees I haven't any a/c plus I was starting to get a Migraine and heat makes it worse. 2) Since when can't a person stand around especially in his own neighborhood 3) I didn't like the PIG"s additude 4) I wasn't really convinced he had jurisdiction. The PIG never asked why I wouldn't get in the car just broke bad on me. I was a cop and believe me if I arrested someone on this my butt would have been in a sling. What happened to my rights it took 2 hours before I could talk to a lawyer. One thing that was lucky for me was that I had been on a buying spree in the morning and had 100's of dollars in my pocket but took it out when I got home this morning. I could see it now big drug dealer. PS they tore my car apart broke the wheels on my Cowboy cart luckily no ammo in car. Sorry to ramble on but if anybody thinks Orwell isn't here is delusional. I've decide to live outside the law it's better defined
