Had a cop pull my for speeding once and asked me if I had any guns, knives, or nuclear weapons in the car.

Tactical. Knives, that is.

Ditto here. I’ve had only one unpleasant experience with a US border guard. Nearly every time I come home though, Ay Carumba!

Well, there is such a thing as reasonable suspicion. If you don’t fit in with the culture, and don’t speak English very well, and with all the illegals running around, there is a good chance that you are here illegally. No one is harmed by occasionally being asked to show their I.D. But liberals call it profiling, and think that it’s the worst thing since the holocaust. No, this is just how a country protects itself. Once they are fully integrated into the culture and learn the language, they won’t have to go through the horrifying ordeal of showing their I.D. when they’re stopped for something unrelated.

Officer: “Papers”

Me: “Scissors. I win.”

My bail was $500.

That will get your ass hauled into secondary so fast your head will spin. Whether or not you are doing something wrong, they will detain you and run you through the grinder like you’ve never seen in your life.

Just ask Sydney Watson:

“It’s one of the first things you learn when you move to South Dakota - the correct pronunciation of our state capital is ‘peer’ (like the one you fish off of), not ‘pee-air’ (like the first name of a Frenchman).

Ironically, the city (founded in 1800) is named after a man named Pierre - Pierre Chouteau, Jr. - an American fur trader and entrepreneur, born to French parents in 1789. Chouteau helped to build Fort Pierre, along the Missouri River, in 1832.

So this week, when Thrillist published a list of the ‘U.S. Cities You’re Pronouncing Completely Wrong’, you figured Pierre (population 14,000) would be on there.

Somewhere.

However, there is no mention of one of the 50 state capitals in the United States, but they did make sure to include a trio of smaller towns - Patchogue (population 11,700) and Skaneateles (7,200), New York, and Sequim, Washington (6,700).”

Then there is THAT...

All I know is when the officer asks, “Do you have any illegal drugs or firearms in your possession?” Responding “What do you need?” is not appropriate.

“I think every officer should be allowed to ask that.”

All questions can be worded to fit with the reason they are stopped. It’s the proverbial, “did you stop beating your wife?” question.

Did you forget to signal because you were looking for the address of where to deliver the illegal drugs in your vehicle to? - Um no. - So you admit you were delivering illegal drugs?

Beware of questions containing a false premise. In the end you don’t really have to answer questions from the police, but they can also charge you with failing to cooperate. Such a charge won’t usually make it to court, however.

I had an officer ask me, ‘How much wood could a woodchuck chuck
If a woodchuck could chuck wood?’

It really isn’t a big deal. I was pulled over in East Hampton, CT, and the policeman politely asked, “What’s the capital of South Dakota?” I responded, “Is it … Pierre?” Then I was told I was free to go. No problem, really.

I had an officer ask me what the Capital of Alaska is. I asked him "You Know?", and he told me, "That's Correct!" and he let me go.
