Business says it doesn’t serve anyone who is armed
Private business, police are not a protected class, the end.
Lol! “Bigoted and discriminatory”! As if they were born a cop, had no choice to be anything other that a cop, and could never be without a uniform or a weapon. Fuck 'em.
My partner was a charge nurse on a psych ward for 16 years. Many of her interactions with police were as follows:
POLICE: buzzes the desk
My Parnter: Yes?
P: This is officer so-and-so with the so-and-so police department. We have a warrant for the arrest of a patient on your ward. Let us in.
MP: Okay, but this is a secure ward and firearms are not allowed. Surrender your weapons at the security office and I’ll grant you access to make your arrest when you return.
P: I’M NOT SURRENDERING MY WEAPON!
MP: Well, then can’t enter this ward.
end of conversation
They also have to check their guns when they go into places like prisons, so those guys are just idiots.
Yes, but that’s to their friends; not people who should be obeying their instructions without question like the peasants they are.
“We ban firearms in this establishment.”
“WE’re cops!”
“Got a warrant? Otherwise, you’re violating our rules and regulations and we ask you to leave.”
you can try… I’ve actually been there. Sort of.
Used to work contract security. my client was next to a MLB ball field- their parking lot literally was next to the service entrance, so the various staff that weren’t special (concessions, security, etc,) would park there. A lot of their ball game security are moonlighting cops or retired cops… they liked to tail gate after the game… but the city would revoke the license for running a parking lot if we allowed alcohol.
Getting drunken cops to leave your property when the other cops tried to be like “what’s the harm,” etc is no good.
I guess just keep calling the cops just to get the record that you tried to get the alcohol off.
That really is a tough one. The only chance you have is to escalate and demand the duty sergeant come down and deal with the problem of his unruly officers or make an extremely public complaint to the media and mayor that will force a response.
Fun story time… a couple of friends of mine were walking home after a night of drinking and some cops pull over and get out and say, “two white men in dark clothes just robbed the gas station down the road and you fit that description.” One friend said, “you’re two white men in dark clothes so you fit that description too. I’m going to have to make a citizen’s arrest.” My other friend said the cuffs got put on them at light speed. They got charged with public intoxication. We don’t know if the two white men in dark clothes were ever caught.
Sadly, he passed away. And only in his 20s. And yes, we lost a great comic mind. I say this as someone who has been paid to do stand-up and write comedy: he was far funnier than I will ever be. I still miss him 20 years later.
something something gay wedding cake. Last I checked LEO isn’t a protected class. And they aren’t even denying LEO, just those that come in on-duty and are armed. So yeah, get fucked pigs.
Not all cops are bad. Don’t paint them all with the same brush.
Edit - Jesus y’all want to go lynch some cops. I wasn’t expecting so much bigotry from the crowd here. Confirmation bias is one hell of a drug I guess
Your privilege is showing…
Prejudice comes in many forms. Be better than that
Pretty much anyone who’s a good cop isn’t a cop anymore because they turned against the bad cops. The bad cops are still there.
What are the odds that the police take this snub badly and do something petty and vindictive in return?
