I said, 'No, I don't put any bumper stickers on my truck.' Part of my reason was sheer OPSEC (to use the survivalblog.com terminology); I don't want the bad guys to think I'm driving around a weapons cache! After reading this post, I now see there are other BGs I need to keep in mind!<br /><br />Mike in MontanaMikeinMontananoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-72688614380082749112009-09-28T00:20:34.070-05:002009-09-28T00:20:34.070-05:00I was stopped just inside the Vermont state line a...I was stopped just inside the Vermont state line at a rest area for inspection. I drove a big rig at the time.<br /><br />The state trooper who was inspecting my rig and paperwork was a really pleasant man who did his job courteously and professionally, but in the course of our thirty or so minutes together I noticed that the 7 or 8 other troopers there treated him with either contempt or indifference.<br /><br />I finally asked him, "Why do they seem to have such a hard on for you?"<br /><br />He said it went back to a training session they had had recently (circa 2000). He said they had all been sent to a training session that taught methods to violate the fourth amendment rights of citizens without committing anything verifiable to get cases thrown out of court.<br /><br />At the end of the session they were required to sign a statement that they had taken the course, understood the material and would incorporate its use in their interactions with "civilians". <br /><br />He told them he would sign that he had taken the course and that he understood the material, but that he could not sign that he would use it. When pressed for an explanation, he replied that he had taken an oath to defend and protect the constitutions of the United States and Vermont, both of which prohibited the use of the tactics taught in the course.<br /><br />In the end, he was called before the head of the State Police (Patrol?) and they went round and round, but he didn't back off his position. <br /><br />He told me he had drawn every shit detail they had and that not one of his fellow troopers would speak to him except when forced to do so by duty.<br /><br />Firstly, I respect this man and told him so, secondly, his experience leads me to believe that the poster's estimate of a 50/50 split between those who would honor their oaths and those who would not, is very generous and likely a fantasy.straightarrownoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-80281300974897079652009-09-27T14:45:02.406-05:002009-09-27T14:45:02.406-05:00This post is, of course, encouraging; however, as ...This post is, of course, encouraging; however, as an old biker (not even a patch holder), I have seen the BS that one young overzealous deputy can pull. <br /><br />My concern is that if these young, inexperienced sorts come up to a threeper, each ones' lives will be changed forever. <br /><br />I try to respect all law enforcement but, all we want is to be left alone. It ain't likely to happen under the circumstances which we now find ourselves.<br /><br />"maintain their own list" indeed.<br /><br />Renegade<br />IIIAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-18661365274025997362009-09-27T13:28:55.115-05:002009-09-27T13:28:55.115-05:00Hearing that 50% of the States speed cops are on t...Hearing that 50% of the States speed cops are on the side of the oathkeepers IS encouraging.Johnnyreb™https://www.blogger.com/profile/14079865843440423828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-42257762676735012292009-09-27T13:14:00.800-05:002009-09-27T13:14:00.800-05:00We haven't had a real tea party yet.
