Your papers please.

I do not like the folks with the flag, and I find myself hating the Gestapo tactics even more. These are the same type of scumbag cops who drive around in unmarked radar cars. They want to be secrete police.

Your papers please, indeed.

I know the supporters of the Gestapo tactics will say, if you do nothing wrong, you have nothing to fear from them. Baloney they will get the quota one way or another. I do hate the Gestapo in their hidden cars. I do not have a problem with real cops out solving crimes and helping people.

Your papers please, sheesh.

There have been many cases in the news where liberal communities have sent the goons to force homeowners and business owners to take down their correctly displayed American flags.

Were the posters here cheering that as well?

If rights don’t stand for those you disagree with then they don’t stand for you.

Believe it or not I agree with you but I do not see this case that way.

These cops were investigating as complaint. They found that a misdemeanor had been committed (whether you agree that desecration is a crime or not it is on the books there). And the way I view the LEO’s actions he was willing to let it go because they took the flag down.

But as soon as he asked for ID the couple got defensive and then offensive. They choose to flee in to their house and lock the door when the LEO persisted in demanding their ID (which he had every right to do and is most likely standard procedure).

At this point an arrest was guaranteed. It is an open and shut case of fleeing an LEO and resisting arrest.
