Reppin' the hometown this fine individual thought he was going to get a free drink by flashing his badge.

As karma would have it one our resident CPD detectives was there and overheard him, and bagged him for impersonating an officer.

I know we usually rag on guys/gals with their HCP "badges" but this was STUPID...granted he IS from Kentucky lol.

The news article was written as if the badge was a common item...play stupid games win stupid prizes

Badges? We don't need no stinking badges!

That is great that they charged him.

[AtomicRooster]

lolol....lol. Good bust.

What an idiot. All for a sense of self importance and a free drink. I wonder how much this is going to cost him now.

[Omega]

Well, at least he will be getting free drinks...and bread.

[BrasilNuts]

I'm sure the manner in which he chose to wear his cowboy boots played a role in the revelation of his ruse.

You'd think, but I suspect he made bail fairly quickly after he was booked in and most likely as not will get out of this with a stiff fine and probation.

From his mug shot, orange seems to look OK on him. Maybe, just maybe, he'll get to wear it 24/7 for a while.

First a man pees all over the floor of Wal-Mart while trying to steal a fish and now this.

Ah, that's Clarksville for you.

He should have been arrested just for the boots, much less the badge.

I thought impersonating a federal agent was a felony......

I guess a free drink didn't met the requirements for felony prosecution haha Edited February 13, 2016 by Parrothead

Probably impersonated a TN DHS agent, silly acronyms should have to be original.

Shouldve put citizens arrested that detective to prove a point lol.

If he wouldve said DEA with those boots he mightve gotten away

It is under Federal law, but it’s a misdemeanor under state law; I doubt the state will turn this over to the Feds. I also doubt much will happen to him since accepting free drinks is probably against a CPD Department policy. Might cost him his job though.

Fixed it for ya.  Signs should be used to self-identify stupidity not a concealed carry badge.

A badge denotes authority and some sort of jurisdiction. Way too many HCP holders think the permit makes them into some sort of LEO and public guardian. As HCP holders they are still private citizens and have no authority except to defend themselves and their family members. With all of the "Sheep Dog" talk going around, it is important to remember that neither a gun nor a big diesel pickup changes the size of your natural equipment. You are just a private citizen.

This Sheep Dog stuff has certainly given birth to all manners of stupidity...wearing a Sheep Dog shirt, watching some Ranger recruiting video and buying a XDs suddenly makes everyone an operator...

That bond is pathetic though

Looks the same as BassPro's badge.

From the BP website:: "The Personal Security Products® Concealed Carry Badge and Wallet helps to quickly identify CCW permit holders at a scene in the first few critical moments after a confrontation. The law enforcement quality badge comes with a durable high luster finish and a strong clip attachment on the back. The badge attaches to inside of wallet that has a window for your CCW permit or ID. This wallet and concealed carry badge identifies user safely during intense moments where mistaken identity can be fatal"

Maybe it saved his life in this instance?

I was added to one of those Sheep Dog Facebook groups by someone else.  I stayed because it's entertaining.  They have meet ups and training days, which are probably reminiscent in the current "Tacticold" thread.  The truth is that they are a bunch of under trained, over weight wanna be operators.  That said I think that what they are doing has some merit.  I would say that 3/4 of them would be dangerous to be around were they in possession of a firearm.  That same 3/4 is probably going to run their mouth in a way that is going to attract unwanted or at least unhelpful attention.  I could get behind a revolution but not one led by idiots.

Oh Clarksville.

Are the Citizens of the USA NOT HOMELAND SECURITY? 

 

But the lesson learned is don't poach on the PoPo's free drink perks.
