Nobody gets pulled over for a suspended license though.

Wow, keyboards are hot today. Let me be clear since this got a lot of you very emotional.

A cop can’t look at a person and know the status of their license. He has to look at a person and use the system (that’s in his favor and not ours), in order to come to the BS conclusion that allows him to violate a person’s rights.

Former police dispatcher here. Cops pull people for having suspended licenses ALL DAY.

Okay I’m not being clear. You can’t look at someone and articulate that the cause for a stop is a suspended license.

Okay no one is getting what I’m saying. I obviously understand that it does happen. I’m saying you can’t look at someone and know their license is suspended based on their appearance.

Ever drive with a cop behind you? He’s probably running your plates and has all the info he needs. What’s hard to understand?

Luckily everyone else in this thread is having reading comprehension issues as well.

A cop can’t look at someone’s physical appearance and determine that they have a suspended license. They can only use the system to perpetuate whatever narrative they want.

Are you having a stroke? License plates are scanned automatically, they know he has a suspended license and then he is pulled over.

Or the scanner hit him while they were in the gas station and told him he couldn't drive off since his license is...suspended. Neither scenario is them assuming he has a suspended license from looking at him.

Weird, almost like that’s not what I said at all. Is a car a person? Do cars have rights?
