[QUOTE="Michael Brown, post: 940299, member: 18"] I don't know the facts for certain, but a couple points stand out that affect my belief as to what happened: 1) Several cars of people 2) In someone else's driveway Having had to go to this type of call more times than I can count, my belief is that when groups of people feel they can infringe upon another individual on their own property, they are likely at fault. I am probably one of the most likely members of this board to attempt to bring perspective to a police officer's actions in this type of situation, but I'm not sure what could have prompted the arrest in this situation. I've found that many folks here and elsewhere don't understand why the plice do what they do based on snippets like news stories, but now I find myself in the same position. I'd be very suprised if an experienced police officer could look at a similar situation and conclude that this was a crime, UNLESS there are some issues that have not come to light which is certainly possible. The only aspect I can think of that can jack up the victim's situation here is mis-management of the police response. As you can see, it can be handled fairly easily IF you are informed and understand your rights AND your limitations. Thus, again I suggest these guidelines: [url]http://www.okshooters.com/forums/showthread.php?t=12516[/url] Michael Brown [/QUOTE]
