CAR CAN HIDE GUN INFINITI-LY




By PHILIP MESSING



December 15, 2006 -- The NYPD is warning cops to be on the lookout for an Infiniti car model with factory-installed hidden storage compartments that can help conceal handguns.
An NYPD operations order has alerted the city's 37,000 cops that the 2006 Infiniti G35X has a small compartment beneath the rear arm rest that could "easily conceal a firearm."
Drug dealers and gang members have had customized hidden compartments installed in their vehicles for years, but this is the first time the NYPD has found a car with a hiding place as standard equipment. "Uniformed members are cautioned to use extreme vigilance and remain alert for hidden compartments when conducting car stops and searching vehicles," the memo noted.
That sucks because that's where I think is a good spot to hide mine, even though I always get a CWP in every state I get stationed. The hiding part is only for on post as no concealable weapons are allowed on Military bases period, licensed or not.

But, you know cru... only if it's the Glock 24, you know, the one that's completetly invisible to metal detectors....
And it only ways 2 ounces with a fully loaded 30 round clip!

And thank God that it still takes a unanimous jury verdict to convict someone in just about every jurisdiction in the USA.

Go ahead and trump up the charges, my one jury vote still lets 'em walk.

If you want to carry, move to a real state that issues concealed Carry permits, and do it legally. I always carry my HK in a shoulder holster.

I don't see where he was talking about "trumping up charges". He was talking about probable cause to search a car. Plus how do you trump up the weight of a brick of weed???

Don't worry brother, with biased statements like that, I don't think the D/A or I have to worry about you making through the jury selection process.

Next victim.

If I'm knowledgeable enough to know about the concept of Jury Nullification/Fully Informed Jury, do you think I'd be stupid enough to answer questions from the DA in a manner that would tip my hand?

Besides, a little reverse bias is just leveling the playing field. The very idea of "jury selection" corrupts the ideals of the jury system...the DA is looking to "select" those he can lead down the garden path.

My personal standard for being "secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures" is a lot higher than the government's. So when I'm on the jury, I apply my standard.

You're not doing ANYONE any favors if you approach being on a jury with that mentality. If I understand this correctly, you would commit perjury to serve on a jury so you could push your own agenda? That's going to hurt both sides. Besides, like I need to tell you since you seem to be so well versed on jury duty, you are supposed to be following the instructions of the judge and rendering a decision based on testimony and evidence, and not because you might be constitutionalist and think peace officers have no authority.

News flash...Public defenders and defense attorneys pick jurors that will help their cause, too. BTW, before I had my present job, but while in the application process, I was called for jury duty. The D/A dismissed me. That's right, the D/A. Having someone on a jury who want to be a LEO, on a case with a murder charge with gang enhancements, sets the D/A up for a mistrial.

Nonetheless, regardless of your beliefs, I will still be providing safety, service and security for you.

I saw this movie. It's called Runaway Jury.

Cops...is there anything they won't do.....
Too late... you just implicated yourself. In my state (NY) even giving it away is considered "sale". Sorry, you just took a B Felony.

Oh, and I can smell unburnt weed and have gotten into cars (legally) without it in plain sight; a K-9 hit is considered probable cause.

I'm not too concerned with the driver climbing into the back seat and going for a concealed armrest compartment; it's the skell in the back seat on the passenger side who I'm concerned with.

BTW, I'm the one who sent the e-mail to the NYPD, Customs, and all the locals in my area. I took four pictures and inserted them in the e-mail which Customs then plagiarized and printed in their memo. Doesn't bother me... I wanted everyone to know. The pics feature my Glock 26 being stashed in the armrest.

Why did I do this? I'm former NYPD... a 919 from 97-08, for those of you know what that is all about.

Don't believe me? That's OK too.

Be safe.

The cops dont. The legislators that you elected decided when they wrote the laws...

XX amount is possession
XX amount is possession w/ intent to distribute
XX amount is trafficing
