Here it is again (still as brilliant):
“Deffert may have mental issues and was about to commit a violent crime.”
Wow = Police can actually read people`s minds!
I thought fortune telling required a license.
These cops are watching too much tv “THE MENTALIST..>”

I think some anti-rights types have claimed that merely wishing to carry a gun is a sign of mental illness.
Some cops think that not being a cop is a sign of mental illness.
I spend a lot of time by myself since I retired..
I do talk to myself a lot since retirement.
Frankly, I fail to see what is wrong with that.
Now I will admit that if the comments are totally off the wall or if the person is in a public place ranting something incoherent....
But this fellow was driving his car. Most of us consider our car to be a private place. Even the law considers your car a private place, otherwise there would be no need for a warrant to search it.
Stub your toe, drop your keys, suddenly remember that you forgot your wife’s birthday...cuss yourself for being stupid..
So what?
All part of being a human.
The cop is an ass.
EVERY police report I’ve seen (in connection with myself, family or friends) has had LIES in the report - things which were total fabrications.
I believe ... now ... that no one can depend on the veracity or accuracy of police reports. And I say that from direct experience.
“Who are you going to believe?,” asked the officer, “Me, or your own lying eyes?”
Psychic cop ping
Going price in Virginia for an open carry false arrest is about $10k. Seems to have cured the problem for most LEOs.
In a case in my area the cops broke into an apartment in the middle of the night, and terrorized a family. They pointed guns at everyone including kids, and held them in cuffs for hours. They found nothing. They later claimed the warrant had listed their apartment (#2), when it should have been #3 and submitted a copy of the warrant showing #2 to the court. Meanwhile, the family’s attorney produced a copy given to him the day after that clearly states apt. #3. The occupants of #3 are long gone of course.
So, of course, hizzonor threw the book at the miscreants who falsified evidence, right? right???
I was there when my buddy made a statement to the police, watched him taking notes. Later on the "report" had things in it that were not said, and lacked important details that were said. As the DA was preparing a case I was contacted by buddy's atty, made a statement to her about what I had witnessed being said, not said. Couple of weeks later lo and behold, DA drops everything before going to trial. Things that make you go hmmm.
I hope so. The family’s lawsuit is still pending.
A warrant is not needed to search a vehicle...and its not private. One can be intoxicated in public in a vehicle...
“I think some anti-rights types have claimed that merely wishing to carry a gun is a sign of mental illness.”
Most cops think anyone who supports the Constitution of the
United States has a mental illness.
I was a LEO for 35yrs, never ever had the problems like we see today. It’s not just Mich. but the whole world seems to have gone crazy.
