ok, I was at one of my 2 spots, which is an elementary school parking lot, ive been riding there for a while with permission from principal and teachers, they dont mind so long as its not while theyre there, and im out riding today and a security guard for the school district comes up, (they are armed and have full authority of regular police), of course its an empty lot and im allowed to ride there so I simply get off and very politely inform him of this, he grabs my arms, lays me on the car and handcuffs me, a little too forcefully. He tells me im not under arrest, but im restrained because "since I ride a bike, I am a higher flight and safety risk" and im just thinking IM 17!!!! what do you think im going to do? U have a gun!! he was really jittery and nervious around little 5' 8'' me
of course the elementary school is like 1 mile from my house so I forgot to bring my liscence, he had me call my dad to sign my release, I mean all that just to release me for something that is completely ok for me to be doing. I mentioned my moms a lawyer and he became nicer
my dad isnt really thrilled but not mad at me because I wasnt doing anything wrong....anyway theres my story........im just ticked I was profiled!!!
so now I have to ride all the way accross town to my other spot
P.S. my avatar was taken at the schools lot

 

"a security guard for the school district"

"he grabs my arms, lays me on the car and handcuffs me"


Sounds like someone is A little pissed off that they failed at becoming A cop and is now A security guard for the school district instead...

 

that sucks....at least he didnt **** with you too much

 

Sounds to me like if that was me a school guard would have been layed out on the floor. JK lol

 

they drive priuses, but he was armed, rank doesnt really matter if theyre armed i mean it was just silly, he could have just told me to leave, not a soul arround, not to meantion i got off right away and didnt try to leave or anything

 

maybe im crazy but aren't guns illegal at an elementary school property?

 

Nah i hear you bro i was just kidding! I would have been pissed off doe.

 

u would think....

 

Yea just what i was thinking. Suprised he didnt roll up on his issued segway.

 

Ftp!!!

 

what were you doing when he saw you to want to hand cuff you?

 

that sucks sounds like he's abusing the power

 

You can carry in the parkin of a school but not inside. As long as you have your CHL.

 

Declare war on that ************

 

sucks, esp if uve got consent from the property owners/users

 

what a ***, he was just bored and hadn't been able to use full authority on anyone before, so you got lucky. If i were you I would still ride there if they said its okay, I ride at an empty school lot by my house and its always available, of course i dont have permission either so it could go either way when the fuzz rides up

 

no cops at stuntwars ..lol
