Are traffic stops for speeding perfectly legal and Constitutional, by the way?

I think traffic laws would be Constitutional when they come from the States.

I think this guy believed that the police officers, had not been duly authorized to stop or arrest anyone because they are not required to take an oath.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

I've never heard of federal traffic laws. I think all traffic laws are at the state level. Unless, of course, the roads happen to be on federal property.

Regardless, the way is to go to a local city council meeting with your concerns that they may not be duly constituted officers. I think this is nitpickity, but whatever floats ones boat I guess.

You write a letter to the editor.

You don't shoot a cop.

It's worse than that. He claimed that the original 13th Amendment had passed the Virginia legislature in 1812 (only militia nutcases claim that) and that he interprets the non-existent Amendment to mean that lawyers cannot serve in the legislatives, and therefore all laws passed since 1812 are (drum roll, please) illegal, and anyone trying to enforce unlawful laws are committing (get ready) treason, deserving of death.

In truth, the man was an anarchist tax-cheat shirker, whose final evil act was to commit murder. Anyone can mouth the word 'Constitutionalist' but actions speak louder than words.
