“There is this thing called the Second Amendment. We the people are armed. And when someone bangs on your door and yells “police” that does not mean they are actually police.
Anyone can yell police. That does not mean that they are police.”
I know that. I have many flaws but an overabundance of trust is not one of them. If someone is banging on my door and say’s they are a cop there better be a squad car with flashing lights in the driveway. He better be in uniform and show an ID when I look through the door window. If I have a gun with me it will be out of sight before I open the door. If he wants to come in he must have a warrant. Yes there is a 2nd ammendment but there are also nervous cops who are (in some places rightly) scared that they will be ambushed. It makes NO SENSE to be flashing a gun in that situation. That’s just me. You handle the situation the way you want.
So the lights flashing car could not be seen and as for uniform, you can get them at any costume shop.
My question would always be "Warrant?" If so they can wait while I call my lawyer.
But that is just me.
The "nervous" cops can find a job where they need not be so jumpy. Although if they stop taking so many steroids it might help as well.
