MONTEREY, Tenn. -- "If somebody told me this happened to them, I absolutely would not believe this could happen in America." "You live in the United States, you think you have rights -- and apparently you don't," said George Reby.

When I knew Magical Mischief, he was reposting a lot of run of the mill mainstream news articles about police corruption real or alleged. I did not see one rebuke from the likes of Jim Robinson for that, although it seems there were some overly fond popo boosters who ragged on Magical for specializing in corrupt cop stories. _Jim and Magical were like matter and antimatter, for one example.

Did something occur to suddenly escalate the situation?

Jim R, I’m curious. (Which my spell checker wanted to render as “sucrose.”)

No. Probably counterfeit. They’ve been distributing undetectable $100s thru the Norks for years.

1. It is not against the law to lie to a police officer. To a Federalee yes but, not a local yokel.

2. What I got in my care ain’t no one’s business and I am not required by law to answer in the affirmative or negative any question posed nor am I required to answer their questions.

3. Probable Cause needs to ensue to for search and seizure.

4. I’ll prove your bogus probable cause and get a some settlement money.

5. The guys in front of Home Depot want to be paid in cash. Day Laborers ain’t cheap.

6. I paid cash for a couple of cars.

7. I have plenty of cash sitting around to bail me out of an emergency.

8. Good luck ever finding it. Didn’t write down the locations and spent 30+ years building my stashes.(don’t care if I lose a few. That’s why I have several)

9. Don’t ever mess with or shoot my dogs.

krankor, you’re a good poster but, I carry butt loads of cash for a variety of situations.

One situation was an internal problem with my bladder. I knew I needed an internist and found one of the best in my area.

They wanted a referral from an insurance company approved doctor.

Told them I didn’t have one but, I have cash, no checks/ no credit cards. Just plain old lettuce.

Saw them the next morning paid full price even after they insisted on giving me a discount.

Told them I am an easy customer and next time I expect the same service.

They have less paperwork, get cash and hopefully I never go back.

how much better could it be for both of us?

BTW, the visit was $400 bucks and with his recommendations problems went away.

Good money.

Do me a favor and play out the rest of that conversation.

Sure. What does the police officer say next?

I-10 in Louisiana has been a big target for these operations. If you have a Caddy, Lincoln, high-dollar BMW, etc, you can and will be pulled over, and this stunt pulled, to the point of having your car impounded as drug related. 60 Minutes did an undercover operation on this strip of I-10, but it still happens.

But anyhow, while we all can have a nice delicious commiseration and go woe is us, still ya gotta do something. If you’re a man and not a mouse.

I hope political action committees are more disciplined than the Tea Party was in trying to get someone to beat Mitt.

Your seat belt is off. Is there a reason for that?

Channel 9 should know better than to violate the law and not have me witness them wearing a seat belt!

My seat belt is always on. With a question like that, I conclude he's going to be a real prick, so I ask if I'm free to go. If he persists, I tell him I am going to exercise my 5th Amendment rights, and I would ask for a supervisor.

What you would say initially, and how do you see that conversation playing out?

“...distributing undetectable $100s thru the Norks for years.”

Hmmm!? This would have been about 17 years ago - before the big push in the newer, colorful bills with enhanced strips, etc.

I’ve had a couple in the last two years. The first one said “Mike, do you know why I pulled you over?” Nope!

That one was a blown stop sign in my neighborhood.

They have ways of toying. Just be careful. I could care less when they pull me over, they sense apprehension.

Nitpicking here but Probable cause needs to exist before any search and seizure ensues.

Honestly, who carries 22 thousand bucks in cash with them? Think about it. You’re selling your car for $20,000. A guy from out of state shows up at your door and says, “Ok, here’s $20,000 in cash.” Bet ya dollars to donuts you’d think something was fishy.


I’m told by my neighbors that some of the Amish work exactly this way. Cash only and when they go to buy a new vehicle or a piece of farming equipment you can always tell who the bag-holder is by the number of men surrounding him as he goes to make his purchase.

Now mind you the the Amish I personally know use a checking account like the rest of us. But no credit cards or debit cards.
