You think as a single female driver, I’m going to pull over for an unmarked, unidentifiable vehicle/person for a ‘traffic stop’, you have another thing coming. That’s a recipe for an abduction.

If I’m driving by myself or with my wife locally, I will drive up to the local police or sheriff station and honk the horn until real cops come out.

If those guys aren’t armed, their cars probably wouldn’t have police lights or sirens either.

So here’s my suggestion to those civilian “peace officers”. At least put your blinkers on before attempting a pit maneuver.

Yeah, I wouldn’t suggest it for anyone, to be honest.

They issue out “Feelings About Imminent Lawbreaking” (F.A.I.L) slips.

Unarmed cops in criminal neighborhoods means the “oppressed” underclass can take whatever they want from their “oppressors,” and then kill them. The corrupt democrats will allow them to do that.

I guess I’m starting to get a bit calloused, but the idea that there could be fewer social workers at the end of the day seems like a win for everyone.

“You think as a single female driver, I’m going to pull over for an unmarked, unidentifiable vehicle/person for a ‘traffic stop’, you have another thing coming. That’s a recipe for an abduction.”

They say if something like that happens, turn your hazards on, call 911, and drive about 5 below the speed limit to someplace that’s well lit, with a lot of people, and keep your doors locked.

They’ll send a marked unit especially if they can’t verify who’s trying to pull you over.

Exactly. So what’s the point of using unmarked vehicles/personnel for traffic stops when they’re going to have to send a marked unit anyway?

So that was in 2019. As far as the media cares, Baltimore is Kumbaya since then (even if nothing has changed).

No one killed in these two shootouts below but they show how quickly things can escalate.
