I would hope I had the guts to do the same. The officers conduct is not lawful and leads us to that slippery slope that has cost us many of our constitutional rights.

Not to drift or hijack the thread..... on a similar (but different) issue. I never, ever thought I would see the day when you could be driving down the street in America, see a roadblock ahead of you, and hear the words of the Police saying "Your papers please?" All in the name of public safety since you MIGHT have been drinking earlier in the evening. I've only been in a stop like that a couple of times, and I know the Supreme Court has ok'd traffic stops.... but it still makes my stomach turn to think that this is what Europe was like during the 40's, and what the Soviets were like through the 80's. Oh.. and btw... what Europe is like today.

Wishing for the days of free travel without restraint, for the days when I could put my dog (or kids) in the back of the pickup and let them ride, and for the days when I could drive all day without having to pick up a cell phone. Yes... I'm getting older.

just sayin'
