Transcript of recorded conversation with Olathe Police and Truth Truck driver Ron Brock
7:36 pm Tuesday, April 8, 2008
Sergeant David Haldeman Badge # 751: … Leave our city, cover it up, or be charged, and if you are charged we are probably going to impound the vehicle. So those are your three choices, but leaving this lot is not going isn’t going to be sufficient in the city of Olathe.
Brock: Ok.
Sergeant David Haldeman Badge # 751: If I catch you driving up and down Santa Fe twenty minutes from now you are going to be charged.
Brock: OK, I just got through leaving the courthouse and I didn’t have any trouble with the police there. They found it to be completely legal.
Sergeant David Haldeman Badge # 751: Well, now you do. The county has different ordinances than we do. I am just simply telling you…
Brock: I’ll be charged with…
Sergeant David Haldeman Badge # 751: Promoting obscenity
Brock: Promoting obscenity?
Sergeant David Haldeman Badge # 751: Yup? Ok? Got that one clear?
Brock: Yes. I am talking with Sergeant?
Sergeant David Haldeman Badge # 751: You are talking with Sergeant Haldeman. You understand where we are at now?
Brock: OK, now, I’ve got to leave the city or I’ll be charged with obscenity because of the pictures of abortion on here…
Sergeant David Haldeman Badge # 751: Yes.
Brock: OK, you consider pictures of aborted babies…
Sergeant David Haldeman Badge # 751: I told you, I told you once that I am not going to debate this issue.
Brock: OK
Sergeant David Haldeman Badge # 751: Those are your choices. You make them; you live with the results, OK?
Brock: OK.
Sergeant David Haldeman Badge # 751: Good enough.
End of call.
Yes, the “obscenity” part was the error. It isn’t “obscene.” There are other laws he was breaking, but not that one.
Haldeman sounds like the gestapo/KGB.
