These are the radio's we had in the Scout Cars when I got on the job. The guts were in kept in the back and it was affectionally referred to as the junk in the trunk. The buttons P-priority call, that get you to the head of the line with the dispatcher, AD-accept detail, OS-out of service, IS-in service, I can't recall C2,S&IR, I don't think we used them.

Not that I PLAN to do anything that would warrant me needing this information, but IF an officer were to try and cuff me right now, I'd be in literal tears. Last night at shoulder therapy I could ALMOST pull my hand behind my back to my belt.

How could one communicate to an officer that I am recovering from shoulder surgery? Would they accommodate and put cuffs in front if I were cooperative in other ways?

In that hypothetical, they wouldn’t handcuff you to the front, however, the officers could consider double-handcuffing you behind the back to alleviate shoulder pressure.

What if I was commanded to get on my knees? I can do it but massive pain. if I'm not resisting any other way will they listen to that?

PS - never been arrested and don't expect to be. Most of my current sins involve eating the last cookie or coming home from golf needing a nap.

Unfortunately your pain threshold isn’t/wouldn’t be our concern. If it gets to the point that you’re being detained at gunpoint and being directed to drop down to your knees, you’ve done something horribly wrong.

^ And yet they found him guilty of negligent discharge of a firearm, IIRC.

Where did he get said firearm? From abusing an officer.

Case closed. . .


When I retire, I am going to do everything in my power to get called for jury duty as often as possible.

Won't matter. All you need is one dumbass and the jury is hung. And there's plenty of those in Cali.

A jury isn't 12 of your peers, but rather a dozen people who were all too dumb to get out of jury duty.....

There is an age-related corollary, I believe.

I must be pretty dumb. I actually enjoy jury duty. It didn't hurt that I still received my salary while doing my civic duty.

I really enjoyed three months of GRAND Jury duty a few years ago, and most of my co-jurors were upset when our term ended. I'd do it again in a heartbeat if ever called again.....

Me too. Although it’s a pain in the ass, I do enjoy the process. Last time I served, I turned the jury around in a civil case.

I heard one of the best answers if one wants to get out of jury duty...

Cops don't arrest innocent people.

Only time I got called for duty was this year. It was for a murder trial by a black gang banger against another black gang banger. I feel serving on a jury is something we should consider important like voting. I would never "try to get out of jury duty".

Having said that I was none too pleased to learn it was going to be a 6 week trial and every day was an hour each way drive through the worst part of traffic in Phoenix. So I confess when they determined I might not be open minded and released me I was happy.

Note - I did not and would not lie on the voir dire. I think there were two questions that probably got me booted and I can't lie on them. One was "Do you think all gang members are criminals - and why"? I answered yes and because that is the point of a criminal gang.

The second question was "Do you own guns, how many and what kind"? I said yes, not sure how many, and shotguns, handguns, assault rifles and machine guns.

I don't think either side wanted anything to do with me.

In these parts, the judges are the issuing authorities for all pistol permits. They probably already know at least half of the answer from your CCW's list of pistols.....
