    Armed insurrection is our only option at this point.

    No, there is one last civil, non-violent option -- a convention of the states. Georgia has already passed a resolution calling for a convention. The Convention of the States group expects to have 16 by the end of this year.

    If you think all these 'authorities' are trying to get you, grab a digital camera and SPY THEM BACK AND POST THEM IN THYTUBE! and face retaliation?

    Of course, it's now completely moot...

    It seems officer Perrone changed his mind after a meeting with the magistrate.

  6. Stalking Was For Followup Emails, Not Recording by SeinJunkie · · Score: 1 · on Couple Who Catch Cop Speeding Could Face Charges

    I was confused by the stalking charge, as well. Read this article to see that officer was attempting to get the couple to stop emailing him, because they refused to meet with him privately about the emails. He has since stopped pursuit of the cessation of emails through the courts.

  7. Re:This is going nowhere by Irvu · · Score: 1 · on Couple Who Catch Cop Speeding Could Face Charges

    According to the folloup article the couple had been e-mailing the officer about the event and he states that his claim of stalking (which he has now withdrawn) was based upon that. Indeed in that article he claims that his goal was simply to force them to stop sending e-mails. Repeated e-mails may in fact lead to the "pattern of behavior" being shown. Additionally the content of said e-mails may indeed establish intimidation but it would still be difficult to claim that a couple repeatedly sending complaints should intimidate a uniformed, and armed, officer of the law.

    IMHO this seems to be a mishandled case that spun out of control. The local chief should have just fined the cop and called it good. Threatening them with stalking, which I agree probably wouldn't hold up in court, only made a bad situation worse.

    this article: http://www.daily-tribune.com/NF/omf/daily_tribune/ news_story.html?rkey=0041564+cr=

    says this: "Officer Richard Perrone alleged that Lee and Teresa Sipple stalked him after they purchased $1,200 in video surveillance and radar equipment that allegedly tracked Perrone speeding past their home"

    There are two different articles, the original, and an additional one linked to in the comments. The second article reads differently than the first.
