Your last interaction with law enforcement?

[steve-in-kville]

This pic made me smile a bit. Rate your last interaction with a member of the law enforcement community. Whether it was a traffic stop, you reported a crime, casual interaction at a place of business or place to eat, whatever. Keep it light and no politics, please. Can include anyone from local, state, federal or anything I am missing.

Again, it's the holidays. Don't turn this into a cop bashing thread.

My last interaction with a LEO was to turn in a handgun that was left in our public restroom at work. It was seemingly left there accidentally, but it seemed strange that the owner didn't miss it and come back for it. The trooper said he would need video footage if they were not able to trace the owner by the S/N, but I didn't hear back from him so I assume they found the owner.

Years ago I was in the city of Lancaster, and not accustomed to city driving, made an illegal turn. I got pulled over and was given a ticket. Waiting until after the officer handed me the ticket, I thanked him for doing his job, and left him know that he is appreciated for protecting the community. He looked surprised and stuttered a little. Then said, "Well that is a first, most people are belligerent and unkind".

I'm part of an almost weekly peace vigil in front of the county courthouse. We regularly get friendly waves from the police going by. Much better than an earlier encounter with the police aiming sawed-off shotguns ordering me to lie face down.

At work, we are a couple of miles from the local state police barracks, so most of our interactions with cops involve serving them lunch. It's a cheap way to have armed security onsite, at least over lunchtime.

I got pulled over by the cops for speeding on my way to church on Sunday.

Similar thing happened when I was in high school. A local detective came in to give us a pep talk on drugs and drunk driving. Cop had to use the can and left his side arm on the toilet tank in the boy's room. Another student found it and alerted a teacher. made the local news and all. Good times, back then

I wonder if you just answered the question of whose gun it was that we found...

My mother once found a handgun laying on the street outside of her home in Baltimore. She called the police. Turns out that a police officer had accidentally dropped it.

See, they really don't want you going to church these days.
