I read something like like this before. Well; it happened to me. Please read to whole story before commenting.
Livingston County, March 3, 2014.
My wife and I were arguing about 2:30am. She called 911. Deputies show up shortly after to investigate. Everything between wife and I were verbal (no contact). One Deputy ask if I'd been drinking and I said "Yes, is that against the law?". Hes said "no". They told us to stay away from each other for the nite. Me on main floor bedroom, her in basement. They told my wife that a report would be filed in the morning ( I did not know that part) and they left.
30 min. later we got into it again. UNKNOWN to both of us, my daughter, 17 years old, calls 911. Still not knowing about the call made, I went up stairs to bed.
Now 4:30 am, asleep, I here my wife walking up the stairs. I called out her name: No answer, I sit up at the edge of the bed and here commotion in the front room (my door is closed); curious, I called her name even louder this time trying to identify the commotion; No answer. I walked to the drawer for my ACP45. With it to my side and me facing the door a Deputy came through the door. I turned, placed the gun in the drawer and I was taken to the floor, cuffed in the back and escorted out to the cop car. After the Deputies discussion with the wife, one of them came to open the car door and said "I can see your not a threat, I will cuff you in the front".
Arrested in my own home while intoxicated (OVER A .02 BAC).
I guess we don't have a right to protect ourselves; just lay down and let the perps do what they want.
What do you think?
