I don’t have a problem if the police politely ask for ID to verify you are not a convicted felon, while you stand there unencumbered and unrestrained. Frankly, I would have no problem if they asked me to remove the magazine and verify the chamber was empty while they checked the ID; as long as I retained possession of the gun and was not restrained.
Cuffing someone (same thing as locking them up) so you can essentially look at their ID is unlawful detention. Doing it “politely” doesn’t make it lawful.
How far we have come to tolerate just a WEE bit of tyranny:
- What reason do I need to keep ID upon my person?
- Is an ex-felon NOT a Citizen afforded the Rights of everyone else? If not, why are they on the streets?
- By what authority do they have to tell the Citizen how to utilize their arms? IE: What good is a gun w/out a round in the chamber, aside from being a hammer?
What part of ‘shall not be infringed’ does anyone NOT get? When one needs a PERMIT for their rights...they not longer are Rights.
