Check yourself. You've become nihilistic... and that destroys your soul.

Haha... lot of ego in that statement

Actually, the state law is pretty clear, police have no right to ask for ID on private property.

They can do it all day on public property, but on private property they are the ones who are trespassing.

marc you there??

Not really. I know who I am and value good people regardless of skin color. A fool can make a mess of any human interaction.

What was this "reasonable suspicion?"

The call to the police saying "there's a stranger at my neighbor's house"

The call to the police saying "there's a stranger at my neighbor's house"

And was there anything that mitigated that claim once they arrived?

They had to confirm Jennings identity.

They had to confirm Jennings identity.

hey marc you ever find that law you were talking about??

 

[Wild Bill Kelsoe]

legally all he had to do was give his name address and reason for being there and he did all that,,

Legally, he was required to cooperate with an investigation by showing his ID when he was asked.

theres no law that says he has to show ID,, hell theres no law saying he has to have an ID so hows he expected to show one??

the laws been posted several times and its almost like you didnt read it,,

 

[MarcATL]

They had to confirm Jennings identity.

They could have confirmed it by checking his tag, like he told them to do.

Why didn't they do that?

 

[pknopp]

They had to confirm Jennings identity.

Which all the neighborhood did.

He doesn't want to read it, for the simple fact it goes against the weak argument he is trying to make.

 

[Wild Bill Kelsoe]

Which all the neighborhood did.

After the cops initially questioned Jennings and he refused to cooperate.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

The call to the police saying "there's a stranger at my neighbor's house"

And when they got there there was a person watering the flowers who told them who he was, as is required by the Al laws. Everything after that the cops were at fault.

 

[pknopp]

After the cops initially questioned Jennings and he refused to cooperate.

He did cooperate. To the full extent of the law. It's why charges were dropped and the city won't fight his lawsuit and just settle.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

After the cops initially questioned Jennings and he refused to cooperate.

He did all that was required of him by the Alabama laws. The law that you so kindly posted on here

The law also prohibits obstruction of justice.
