That is true, but I will guarantee you that most cops that I know do not want GZ around or to even apply.
He should have been fined if he was speeding, and saying he is driving 'nowhere in particular' is a bit suss.
Police officers have discretion as to whether they will issue a warning or a formal citation and a fine. And maybe in Australia the cops can demand you tell them your business, but here in America there is nothing wrong with going "nowhere in particular" and you don't even have to answer the cops if you don't want to.
I don't know much about concealed carry laws, but if I recall in some states when you are pulled over by a cop you are legally obligated to inform the officer you are armed.
When did he decide to start hunting unarmed kids in Texas? Seriously, of course this was a joke. Zimmerman wants everybody to think he's somewhere he's not. He's in Virginia with his Virginia family. Note the video shows a blacked out window on a blobbed license tag, and no Zimmerman anywhere in the video. Ummmmm STAGED!!! It coulda been Ted Nugent in that truck, or any other person., or not. Nonsensical video and a braindead assumption that OJZ's in Texas.
I'm gonna love it when somebody "Target"s him. Somebody will meet up with George in Virginia soon, I predict.
That is correct if you are a CCW permit holder in most states and the weapon in accessible or on your person. I don't know the specific law in Texas, but it is always a good idea to let the officer know you have a weapon in the vehicle. This would not apply if it were in the trunk, for example. But if it is in a place where you can put your hands on it, just tell the officer. Also, make sure your hands are in plain sight when the officer approaches your vehicle. On the few rare occasions I have been pulled over, the cop always sees my hands on the wheel when he walks up to my window. I give him/her a slow wave with my open palm and then indicate that I am going to open the window. They appreciate this and it helps keep the situation nice and calm. I've had three cops thank me for doing that--right after they declined to cite me and let me off with a warning. Not sure if there is a correllation, but...
you didn't get the memo ? it's totally cool when presidents kill thousands of innocents with drone strikes because the president said he didn't mean to ....
Must be nice to be a celebrity. Anyone else would have gotten a ticket being Texas is full of speed traps on I-20 in that area.
"...if I recall in some states when you are pulled over by a cop you are legally obligated to inform the officer you are armed." Taxcutter says: In Ohio you have ten seconds to inform him.
I do. Detaining someone without cause is the prison-state the left aches for. Armed legally.... and your theory is stupid.
Doesn't matter. They couldn't be called something prefixed with "white-" Those are the only ones the left care about.
Worth repeating. Well said. - - - Updated - - - Which would go against all your claims of the Right hating minorities.... oops.
Then, I bet someone from the police force alerted TMZ, lol. I think the problem is that one fears the cop let him go because he felt he had been through enough. People fear that I suspect.
That's why they call it the right-wing asylum ... Zimmy merely fulfills 2nd Amendment *remedies* demagoguery rather than embraced as a plantation hispanic ...
Hey Rose.......did you see the dash cam video of the stop?......the cop didn't recognize him at first when he looked at his license......THEN.......Z had to point out who he was...he said "Did you see my name?"......then the cop realized who he was and said "what a coincidence" Zimmerman is trying to get publicity.......why do you think he is?
I dont see this like you do, ok? Now if you have proof he was tweeting at the time, saying, eff, the cops got me right now, then your point may have a chance of being legit. Actually whoever contacted TMZ is the fame whore. Do you even care who may have done that, or are you sure it was Zimmerman?
It's a hoax. Yeah that's right, George is going to speed through Texas on his own. You all need to wake up.
Right, because a cop telling a Hispanic to leave the area would be supported by you whiny libs.... right ? ffs.
