Once, my car was searched and the cops found a home made billy club in the back. Felony. I pled down to a misdemeanor because of the Zig-Zag papers they also found. Bullshit case.

I should have been though
In 1965 I was 20 years old, had been drinking beer all afternoon & night. About midnight I was driving home & went off the road, striking a utility pole. My '56 VW was in tough shape but the cop just put me in the backseat of the cruiser. He asked if I'd been drinking and after initial denials I fessed up & he said he'd check the NO box. Thank you. He asked what happened & I said I fell asleep. He said "That's driving to endanger. I'd say you skidded on ice". That's right sir! The yow truck pulled the car out of the ditch. One headlight gone; one pointed at treetops. The cop said, you ok to drive? I assured him I was, paid the tow truck driver $20 and went home. Better lucky than arrested.
Yes, wrongly though. Was for misdemeanor petit larceny. DA kept offering my attorney a plea deal because he knew he couldn't prove anything (because truthfully, I didn't do it). I took it to court and won. Cost me $3500 (plus all the time out of work dealing with it) to prove my innocence. Now, I will tell you, that was the real crime.
The cops will never catch me.
No, but questioned many many times.
I'd be curious to know that they could charge you with over a home made billy club, as lots of people have stuff like that. And zig zap papers?
I don't know what law is being broken.

Gawker, glad to see your post. Glad to know you are okay.
SJG
No, but I've been with friends who have gotten arrested (for public intox., underage consumption, fighting and fake ID).
One time I was helping a relative clean up an old house in a crappy area of a small town far from where I live. Leaving, down the road I pulled over to change into a clean pair of flip flops from my muddy shoes (which were in the trunk) for a long drive home. Apparently I pulled over in front of a drug dealing spot and a yocal sheriff followed me for 15 miles before he finally found a reason to pull me over which happened to be at the end of the county line. I don't think I've ever gone under the speed limit for 15 miles in my life. Those 15 miles must have taken me at least 40 minutes to drive.
He fought to search my car and luckily Mrs S was with me and called her relative which was a detective and finally the officer let us go but had to be convinced by the detective.
I did nothing wrong but in a small town like that sometimes that doesn't matter. I really wanted to say "listen fuck stick do you really think someone driving a $65,000 new car is going to stop and buy some $10 crystal meth?"
No.
No, I leave that to strippers and their babydaddys
yes.
No. Although I used to break into homes, schools, and hospitals when I was 12 years old with a friend of mine and steal things.
Was put in the back of a patrol-car once in my early 20s but was not arrested.
I wouldn't think having a billy-club would be against the law - what if one has a baseball bat.
No I agree with Motörhead & cflock
My attorney has advised me to not talk to anyone. :)
My attorny said that's classified
@OP what's zig-zag papers?
^^^^ Papers to roll joints
Hard for me to see how they have anything to charge you with.
SJG
Depending on what else they find, rolling papers (like zig zags) are considered drug paraphernalia.
As for billy clubs, I thought it was common knowledge that they are illegal. I think the reasoning is there is no lawful function of it. Whether you call it self defense or not, billy clubs are just used to beat people up, and nothing else.
Yes but I have no comment!
Once, for attempted murder.
^ a custy didn't pay for his lap-dances?
"Billy clubs" aren't completely illegal in KY. I have an expandable baton I've been known to have on me when in a couple of the rougher clubs around.
Nice thing about KY is that the concealed carry law covers "weapons," not just guns.
Yup. Fuck the cops.
3 times
All 3 times was Assault charges
1 of the three had breaking an entering attached to it
This all happened from ages 18-21 I've cleaned my act up since then...plus having the Lord come into my life really helped in controlling my anger issues
Almost forgot one of the three charges had excessive force added to it
I did some things as a teen that I wasn't proud of. Growing up in Detroit all my friends were in the street life, so I followed them.
It's much better to be a leader instead of a follower.
^^^^ you crazy fucker
Never.
Of course SJG has been questioned many times.. Probably anytime an underage asian girl goes missing they head straight to pick him up for questioning.
Joe gets arrested on every strip club trip for lood conduct, public drunkenness, excessive shitting and pan handeling
LOL
Ime lol
Juice once got arrested for having sex w/ a chicken-breast in a KFC
Juice, did you beat up a vending machine to get a bag of chips?
Busted lol...you guys got me
I do often tip vending machines to get free snacks
Papi_chulo, it was before I was a stripper. :)
@ Nina:
Are you gonna share the details - PL enquiring minds want to know
Yes I have and I'd do it again ;)
I really do enjoy lopaw New aviator
Juice got arrested at a Chuck E Cheese one time.
Papi - nah probably not, but I will say that I was never convicted of anything.
Esta bien
Handcuffed a couple of times but never arrested.
Lol shaylnn
no, not even close
and i'm a young, black male ;-)
"once for going into a casino underage. I ran past security when asked for my ID"
Brilliant strategy!
Closest I ever came to being arrested was as a teen. Some friends and I had a fire extinguisher filled with water that we were using like a high pressure squirt gun. We went forth looking for victims and hit a couple that was a surprisingly attractive woman with a dorky guy wearing a cowboy hat.
Alas the woman was wearing a bra when we soaked her but we did knock the cowboy's hat off his head. It was brilliant! There was also a cop only a few cars behind us.
I thought sure we were going to be arrested but the cop just made us empty the fire extinguisher.
Only a few times. I've cleaned up my act - and it's all good now. Stupid shit - back when I thought I was running with a cool crowd - who turned out to be anything but cool.
The State boys tried one time. They searched the car, looking for Pot. They didn't find it so they gave me a traffic ticket for not wearing my glasses while driving. :)
Saw a smoking hot thick black lady cop yesterday. I really wanted to try to get her to arrest me.
Vince...didn't you say you got pulled over one time in Columbia, SC when Shadow and I were down there?
No never
