What To Do When They Come For You

One suggestion I have implemented here since my visit to a micro that got me and my 7 year old held up by an ignorant security guard (see souvenir penny cache in Nevada for details of the arrest) Call all the local law enforcement agencies and tell them about Geocaching and what it involves. I actually got a call from a Capt with the Reno police dept for explanation so he could tell the guys in a memo. Then, before you go out, call the local dispatch and tell them you are caching in the area you are going with a description of what you look like and a cell number. I have not had a single issue since.

 

A little excessive, but after my kid got drug through a casino and tormented by Fern the 300lb 65 yr old loser guard for 45 minutes with me.....it's worth it

You mean you're serious?

As I was gcing,I noticed a police car in the parking lot ,just setting there.Upon finishing,I decided to go to him and explain,as I was sure he was observing me.He was surprised by my visit,and had never heard of gc.He was also very young,like a high school age kid.As we were talking ,another car drove up to us,and a pretty young lady got out,about his age.They both seemed a bit impatient,but very cordial.They also were looking at each other.I could feel the heat,and dismissed myself asap.I don't think they even saw me leave. ;)

So, let me get this straight. You have high school kids as police officers in your town? That's...interesting...

Sounds like a "badge bunny" had arrived and that patrol car was probably fixing to commence rocking... :blink:

You may not like cops. Few do. They can be arrogant, impatient, rude. They can weary of a demanding, complaining public. Most are good people. A few are not. They are what we've got.

 

They are out there, 24/7, with the psychopaths, the crash victims with the cartilage white where the flesh is gone, the week-old dead found by the reek, the snot, the blood, the maggots, the screaming half-crazed fifteen-year-old rape victims, the charred children caught in the fire with their guts exploded, the aged drunk women pissing in their pants in alleys and trying to crawl, the baby's brains on the windshield.

 

Just be kind, explain what you are doing, let him check you out if he wants, and get back to playing your game, while he goes about a job you wouldn't dare do... that you don't even want to hear described.

 

BTW - If you can do better, Calhoun County, Al. is looking for 25 new Deputy Sheriffs! Would you like an application? :blink:

Try a hardhat, orange safety vest and a clipboard.

Is that legal? Seems like it would be impersonating a construction worker or something. :blink:

Is there a law against impersonating construction workers?

LMAO If there was a law against impersonating a construction worker then many construction workers would get into trouble ! :P

;) Graphic, true and to the point.

If you run across a peace officer who was just totally hassled by someone who looks just like you be especially nice.

Thanks for the offer but I doubt that the good old boys would accept a know it all Califonia redneck. :blink:
