    Down river sherrifs

    I was down river digging fossils today. I was sitting on the bank, taking a break drinking beer. I hear an ATV coming my way. Here come two sherrifs my way, i'm cool with that.

    They pump me for info about any recent activity on the river.I am on an easement(100 ft high water mark)I did not tell them about my pistol session yesterday.

    Then they ask my full name and DOB. I coulda took issue, but pick your battles. It would appear minding your own business in the middle of nowhere now requires you to identify yourself. What say yall?

    I see no harm in it.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.

    I suppose you could have given them reasons to hang around you all the longer.

    I chose to comply, they were not $#@!s and I chose to comply. I just don't understand why a cop can approach you on public land, minding your own bussines and make you ID yourself. (Show me your papers)

    They had zero reason to be around me to begin with. Why must I produce my papers? Maybe they should do this with illegals instead of natives?

    If it bothers you seek legal counsel. It has never bothered me.

    It does not bother me as I have jack to hide. But is not a bit disturbing in a "free country"? I guess I should be happy I was not shooting my pistol. But I could hear them 4 minutes off in the distance.

    They do it around here. But, that's all they can do if you're not breaking any sort of law. Sometimes, they're looking for someone associated with a crime. Back in June, a woman was killed in her rural home -- random killing, serial killer they think. Cut her up in pieces. For a month after that, everyone was questioned if they were out and about. For a week before the killing, a transient man -- all dressed in black with a backpack - was walking up and down beside the roadway. Sheriff and KBI were all over the place here. Asking questions.

    Probably no harm in it as long as they don't harass you.

    At least they didn't wanna frisk you.
