re: #506 Skip Intro

Contrary to popular opinion, the cops can’t just “haul you off” at will.

It’s a Real Big Deal to do legally, so in nearly all cases it isn’t done at all.

If the murderous asshole had pointed a gun at his head, that would have gotten him 72 hours in observation, but with money and a good lawyer he’d have been free again. His only fear was that they’d find his weapons cache, although since he was a Responsible Gun Owner I don’t know why that worried him. It’s not as though they would have confiscated his weapons.

According to details which have since come out, he was actually afraid of letting the cops into his apartment because he had the paperwork and plans for his little shooting spree out in the open and feared if cops searched the place, he’d be found out. But even then, what’s the worst he would have gotten? “Conspiracy to commit?”
