I was blowing leaves off of my property this morning when a police officer confronted me. He told me that I was breaking the law (where I live the noise ordinance is from 10pm-6am and this was well within that time frame). When I let him know the law and asked what law I was breaking along with some other discussions, he responded by saying, "This isn't the good old days, freedom doesn't exist anymore." He had a straight face and was dead serious. It is a sad day when not even the police believe in freedom anymore or respect the laws. I just wish I had been recording the interaction as it would have been youtube gold.

That's why nowadays people want to be a policeman. Not to catch a villain, help society, or secure the area where you are living. They want to do anything what they like, because they think that they have right to do that. If we don't accept their wish, so they will show their gun and arrest you for "don't want to cooperate with police against crime". Their deed make the people don't like all of police officers, even to nice police that really helped society.

You didn't need to record it, you only needed to get this civil servant's name and badge number and report it to us here. Then some of us might have believed your story. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

Maybe he was just being an ass, and he knows of another law.
For instance I have a sound ordinance as well from 10PM-7AM 58dba, but there is also a noise ordinance for residential areas that is effect during the day. 65dba 50ft from the property line.
My miner exhaust measure 51 dba @50ft
Edit: Most residential have both, and I bet a leaf blower violates both. He is kind of right though I have many friend cops, and they all say there is always a law you are breaking.

So sorry to hear about this unfortunate incident this morning. The cop is right though. We are not in the 60's anymore. Freedom as we once knew it has vanished and been replaced with a fake freedom that fooling most everyone. Did you tell the cop that you knew freedom aint what it used to be or did you just let him talk your ear off then go back to your leaf blowing.

the more I hear about this matter about freedom in the US and some other countries, the more grateful I am for not being born there.. it is just sad that fewer and fewer AND fewer people can stay happy without making others suffer I was blowing leaves off of my property this morning (granted 7:30am might have been a bit early) when a police officer confronted me.

I wanted to record it because a clip of a police officer saying freedom doesn't exist would have been gold. Whether or not people believe me never crossed my mind. I wasn't doing anything illegal or breaking any laws. The police officer was 100% in the wrong. You don't have to believe me though. There will inevitably be those who are ignorant and short sighted who will support a police state. I just wanted to share this story. I guess without a clip of the cop saying it though, this is just the ramblings of an irritated citizen.

Freedom as we once knew it has vanished and been replaced with a fake freedom that fooling most everyone. Yeah, I'm sure women and minorities LOVED living in the 60s. Oh wait, I forgot we were all supposed to behave as clueless male libertarians on these boards. My bad. I guess without a clip of the cop saying it though, this is just the ramblings of an irritated citizen.
Without at least a name and badge number it surely is. You're aware you can ask for this information and they're required by law to provide it, correct?

He didn't have much to say. He just said that next time he comes out someone will go to jail. Basically I have lost the right to use a leaf blower on my property. The time of day really had nothing to do with it. It's sad. I own my property and I am not allowed to operate a leaf blower on it. While his statement was shocking, it did prove to be true in this instance.

No judgement here friend, it's not at all unwise to fear the police these days. But what use are rights if we're all too cowardly to make use of them? Do we even truly have them at that point?

I was blowing leaves off of my property this morning (granted 7:30am might have been a bit early) when a police officer confronted me. He told me that I was breaking the law (where I live the noise ordinance is from 10pm-6am). When I let him know the law and asked what law I was breaking by leaf blowing my property, he responded by saying, "This isn't the good old days, freedom doesn't exist anymore." He had a straight face and was dead serious. It is a sad day when not even the police believe in freedom anymore or respect the laws. I just wish I had been recording the interaction as it would have been youtube gold.
At least that Policeman had the courage to say the truth. At least he did not try to hide this fact or shield like politicians do. We are actually living in a tied-up free environment. All the control is being done either by politicians or business tycoons.

The story doesn't sound convincing and the statement is not completely true. Freedom never existed in the first place, nor earlier and not now. When there's a Government, it automatically makes us all their bonded laborers who have no freedom. All Policemen are not that bad but 99% are and if they even finds you walking on the street, they threaten to arrest you and extort money. Unless one is powerful like a Lawyer or Minister or someone with a high authority, the person is just slaves.

Here you've captured the problem with the american anti-government movement. Most americans have very [materially] comfortable lives, full of privileges we fear to lose. We refuse to risk anything, we refuse to make any sacrifice for the greater good. Even those of us who despise the state and the violence it employs won't sacrifice much of anything to better it. Sacrifice. This is the difference between people like you and I and people like Edward Snowden and Bradley Manning. We are revealed as selfish cowards when held up to that standard.

Hence my post. Police make and break laws on a daily basis. I'd rather rant on an online forum than exercise my rights and end up in jail for doing so.
Here you've captured the problem with the american anti-government movement. Most americans have very [materially] comfortable lives, full of privileges we fear to lose. We refuse to risk anything, we refuse to make any sacrifice for the greater good. Even those of us despise the state and the violence it employs won't sacrifice much of anything to better it. Sacrifice. This is the difference between people like you and I and people like Edward Snowden and Bradley Manning. We are revealed as selfish cowards when held up to that standard. Perhaps. Something tells me the users who have BTC tied up in my escrow services appreciate my choice not to cause trouble and risk my "freedom" which according to the police, doesn't exist anyway.

I was blowing leaves off of my property this morning (granted 7:30am might have been a bit early) when a police officer confronted me. He told me that I was breaking the law (where I live the noise ordinance is from 10pm-6am). When I let him know the law and asked what law I was breaking by leaf blowing my property, he responded by saying, "This isn't the good old days, freedom doesn't exist anymore." He had a straight face and was dead serious. It is a sad day when not even the police believe in freedom anymore or respect the laws. I just wish I had been recording the interaction as it would have been youtube gold.
That's why nowadays people want to be a policeman. Not to catch a villain, help society, or secure the area where you are living. They want to do anything what they like, because they think that they have right to do that. If we don't accept their wish, so they will show their gun and arrest you for "don't want to cooperate with police against crime". Their deed make the people don't like all of police officers, even to nice police that really helped society. This guy gets it right here.. Our cops are paid in the top 5% of the entire country... the waiting list is YEARS.. YEARS not months YEARS long..... Pigs in my country are pampered beyond pampered and believe exactly this. We are "civilians" aka dirt, peons, nothing. People of no value or importance.

Did you tell the cop that you knew freedom aint what it used to be or did you just let him talk your ear off then go back to your leaf blowing.
He didn't have much to say. He just said that next time he comes out someone will go to jail. Basically I have lost the right to use a leaf blower on my property. The time of day really had nothing to do with it. It's sad. I own my property and I am not allowed to operate a leaf blower on it. While his statement was shocking, it did prove to be true in this instance. At least if anything comes of this situation you found yourself in this morning its a good BCT thread. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)
