I've been following this for several days and while I'm still not sure what the "right response" would be I think this would be mine
put my hands on the hood and spread my legs
then I'd call a good lawyer and by good I mean ACLU so not really top notch but certainly willing to represent me and having a legion of interns willing to find the minutia about my case
-threatening me with grievous bodily harm (pacemaker)
-trespassing
-theft
-intimidating a witness
-destruction of evidence in a capital case
-wearing painfully ugly clothes(jk)
somethings concerning the gun
the police could want to take it back to the station and check the serial numbers as well as run ballistics on it
as far as their treatment of "me" is concerned once they took the cuffs off it is absolutely unacceptable for them to behave that way
I'm wondering if the "me" in the story has had any prior run ins with any of the LEOs
I know that some of the police in my neighborhood know me simply because my neighbor is constantly calling them/getting them called on her because she/her boyfriend is beating her/shes beating him coupled with atrocious taste in LOUD music
so I question whether the police have heard complaints about "me" from the suicide
"victim", why are they called that, victim, if its a crime and you call the criminal the perpetrator
the fact that this person had a gun is negligible when you take into account the fact that they took the cuffs off if they believed there was the possibility of any further threat they should have left them on,
as far as the whole authority is the law question and guns pro/anti
the reason why people "need" access to firearms is to protect themselves including from their own government, South America (as a whole) is one small example of what we don't want to have happen here
What the problem in general with the police is that the people who should know just meekly do what they're told and the people who don't have a clue are belligerent to the point of foolishness
if we in America want to have the kind of "coppers" the British have then the American populace as a whole needs to get informed of WHAT rights they have specifically, enough with the BS I have Freedom, learn that yes they can search your backpack no they can't search your backpack w/o a warrant if you have a 50 cent lock on the zippers etc
