At which point they are politely reminded that as public officials performing public duties with a member of the public, they have NO expectation of privacy, and are politely invited to depart peacefully.stevie_d_64 wrote:Let's suppose you get your knock on the door, as we are all prepared to be "asked" by lawful authority to have access to our property...
We refuse, they insist, we whip out our recording devices, get our witnesses etc etc etc...
And then those authorities refuse to cooperate???
I have a sneeky feeling they will not proceed, and will inform you that we cannot record them (images and voices) for whatever reasons they can come up with...

Perhaps asking them if they have any preferred title for their YouTube video might be appropriate.

AMEN! 
A large part of Mexicos problens are because their goverment has disarmed the good people and told the bad guys "ya'll shouldn't do that you know."03Lightningrocks wrote:I would not give permission.

Exactly...and now they want to do the same thing to Americans. It makes me crazy when anti-gun States, like Kalifornia, or anti gun countries like Mexico choose to act like the reason gun control doesn't work is because there is not enough of it.Liberty wrote:A large part of Mexicos problens are because their goverment has disarmed the good people and told the bad guys "ya'll shouldn't do that you know."03Lightningrocks wrote:I would not give permission.

Might have to make all donations to the NRA as anonymous donations and forget about the tax write off.
Do they allow tax write off on donations made to the NRA? Just curious...
