Quote HistoryQuoted: Like I said, he could have sauntered down, ask us how it's going. Checked licenses, because that's what they do and why I buy one and then brought up the date, if he thought it was actually Sep 1. I could have corrected him, he could have explained his mistake and we may have had a much more pleasant experience and even a laugh for all. We could have shot the shit for a few minutes and all would have been fine. But he didn’t. Because he chose to be an asshole. Which is why we have a 7 page thread, and why fish cops continue to be universally reviled. I understand and respect your individual decision to not take any further steps. I would not be so kind. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: “Yelling” and “tearing into” were the descriptions used by the OP. I’m “making things up” by using the word “screaming?” Ok, whatever you say. Fish cops have a well-deserved reputation for being assholes. They need to get tuned up when they both act like assholes AND are wrong. It’s not about this one incident or the specifics of OP’s incident, it’s reshaping their entire attitude by stomping their dicks whenever an opportunity like this appears. Or, and I'm just spitballing here, do you think they may start by projecting authority, maybe sometimes being interpreted as over zealous, because they work in an environment where most of their encounters are armed, and in remote locations where help is a very long time coming if they need it? I've seen many circumstances where someone of a criminal mindset thought they could take the cop, fish or otherwise, because they thought he was weak. Personally, when hiring cops, I look for smart people who can strike up a conversation with anyone. It's a balancing thing. The preference is officer friendly enough most of the time, who can pivot to full warrior mode and back when needed. |

A middle aged dude fishing with two grade school-aged kids needs immediate “command voice” asshole presence to sort out a (non-existent) parking ticket-level issue? Read the room. This wasn’t a bunch of adult males with long guns in the woods. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: You handled the situation well Lorax, And taught the kids how a reasonable adult reacts to an over "achieving " warden without resorting to hysterics. Ignore the GD badasses. Thank you. The point is this is a stupid little thing that happened that didn't have to happen. And it reminded myself included that handling things calmly and tactfully sometimes is the best. And I think I set a good example for those kids. Hopefully, the warden was embarrassed enough to maybe learn a little something also. I hope he takes away a little humility. |

Perhaps they'll just move on and do middle school stuff not under the bleachers. Perhaps their mothers will call the school because their snowflake was Told not asked. Will there be drama? Will life go on? No one knows? Maybe, just maybe, by today, no one really cares or lost a moment of sleep over it. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Makes sense. So you were not traumatized by him getting your attention or him being pompous or something. I think it boils down to 'he was unnecessarily harsh, and (perhaps deliberately) frightened the children in a manner which would make them less likely to want to pursue fishing and hunting in order to avoid similar incidents in the future'. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I think it boils down to 'he was unnecessarily harsh, and (perhaps deliberately) frightened the children in a manner which would make them less likely to want to pursue fishing and hunting in order to avoid similar incidents in the future'. It boils down to “you can be an asshole, or you can be wrong. You can’t be both.” A concept that everyone but the guy with a “masters in police management” seems capable of grasping. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Apparently so. The guy actually locked up a little like Turtle Man Mitch for about three seconds. Double checked his phone and said nothing. Then, because I made him look like a fool in front of the kids, he reminded us that the refuge closes tomorrow.  Yeah......No shit. I just told him that. Never apologized. Wouldn't even look at the kids. And "allowed" us to keep fishing, for one more day of course. Turned around in a huff while saying there would be no citation today and beat feet up the path. I think that's when I heard those two kids start breathing again.  I reassured them that we did nothing wrong and that the Warden must have been having a bad day and way over reacted. Those kids were crushed. You could tell. The guy wanted them to fear him. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: So he forgot it was Aug 31? Apparently so.

Tried to lecture me for carrying a handgun while bow hunting. "You know you can't do that, right?" "I have a carry permit and the hunting regulations say no carrying a handgun while bow hunting UNLESS you have a valid firearm tag OR carry permit". "But your carry permit requires you to follow all other applicable laws." "According to the book YOUR AGENCY printed, I am following the law." Took 5 minutes of arguing before the fucker would even look it up, then belittled me for killing a small(but legal) deer. Fuck you, buddy. A legal deer shows up, it's going into my freezer. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: On the fence on about fish cops. On one hand they are over zealous, aggressive assholes. But on the other hand, most 'sportsmen' I've run across blatant law breakers: going over the limit for sizes or number of catch, poor hunting techniques, not tracking wounded game, trashing areas they are hunting/fishing in, fights, etc. The whole thing being a shit show.  VS  Which one will you run into? |

The DA is filing a complaint against said officer with the state AG. From what the prosecutors and DA told us this officer has issues and lots of complaints. It would also appear his report or incident write up doesn't match the sheriff's deputy that was also here , who I might add was not an asshole. 1 city Pd and 1 county sheriff since we live just on the edge of the city and county. we tried to explain that my neighbor's wife 75 years old has dementia and bouts of sudden violence and paranoid delusions, asshole cop didn't care. When I tried to explain to him , he said he doesn't care about last week, yesterday or this morning his only concern was what happened in the last hour. What kinda fucking idiot wants less information to understand the situation? She is a lvl 5 out of 7 on the dementia scale. Because of said Fucktard, I have had to send my lawn guy over to take care of the property and pay for it on my dime, the couple is elderly and she can't maintain the property. My wife has had to take her shopping and make her food, since her husband has a 500 foot restraining order. It's truly amazing how fast your rights are stripped but takes fucking weeks to get the paperwork done to drop all this shit. In the rest of my days I will never help any officer in need nor will I ever call the cops for any reason. I see a cop getting his ass kicked and possibly murdered while I'm driving by, I'll smile and wave and have a coke when I get home. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I don’t know. Why don’t you tell us and embarrass yourself some more. Simple to a lawyer time is $$ and none would waste either filing a 1983 action on the facts presented here. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: For your story to be related you would have needed to yell at them for being under the bleachers while they are in the middle of an open field. Well, there are woods and a creek on the campus. |

You are utterly clueless. 1983 has a fee-shifting provision, and I wouldn’t need to hire a lawyer anyway because I’ve been one for 20 years, and done 1983 cases before. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I guess the state and local prosecutors going after the cop in his post are all retards, too. Maybe maybe not. He never said what they were looking at the guy for or what he's alleged to have done other than ask him to get to the point. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Ok. You call and write everyone. Whatever makes you feel like you’re in the right. Nothing will happen. OP is wise/mature enough to see this and appears to be moving on.

With whose help? If you think the case of the mistaken date is a winner for a 1983 case, please, call someone else who actually knows these things. Maybe the insurance company will offer $5k to go away and thats iffy, but it's never going to court. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: True. Corrupt protects corruption. I wouldn’t call yelling at someone for fishing outside of the timeline, realizing you’re wrong and stomping off without issuing a citation, corrupt. Immature and petty, sure. |

You’ve clearly never handled a 1983 case and don’t understand how they work, or what the objective of a 1983 case with “nominal damages” might be. |

While it's true it's your word against his, I'd still file a complaint. This guy probably wasn't only a hot head today, and these types of things sometimes have a way of accumulating and taking them down eventually.

Quote HistoryDidn’t read. I’m not speaking from a legal point of view. I’m speaking from a point of view that a man with thick enough skin would hold. From a practical standpoint, no damages were incurred. The OP clearly possesses that thick skin. Others perhaps not. |

Or realize that the fish cop is a hot headed asshole that shouldn't be issued a firearm. |
