Arrested For Not Showing My Papers at Checkpoint Staffed by Conyers, GA Police

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


The inaction described below by Robert was shared via CopBlock.org/Submit. He details his experience traveling and, despite causing no victim or damage to property, being demanded by self-proclaimed “authorities” to show his papers. Is that evidence of a free society?

Date of Interaction: August 16 2014
Outfit: Conyers, GA Police Department
Phone: (770) 483-6600

On the sixteenth of August I was arrested at a roadblock in Conyers, Georgia.

I stopped at the roadblock, the leo asked me for my license. I responded “have I committed a crime?” The officer asked me again for my license, I said “what law did I break, am I suspected of committing a crime?” The LT. asked if I was refusing to show my license and I said “Is that a crime?” He didn’t respond and arrested me instead.

My motorcycle was impounded and It cost me a total of $222.00 to get out of jail and get my bike back. They said they were acting within the constitution.

They had no reasonable suspicion to stop me. This case is closed out but I have a court date set for the 10th of October 2014. Do you know of any pro bono constitutional lawyers that would pick this up?

      I don’t know for sure, but I think GA has a state law requiring anyone over the age of 18 to have a GA state ID or a state drivers license.

      It was explained to me by a police officer about 25 or 30 years ago in the Conyers, GA area the reason the state required everyone over the age of 18 to have an ID on their persons was in case they were murdered or involved in a bad traffic accident … the police would know who the person was, and could perhaps reach their families in the case of death.

      The officer told me this years before there were ever any public issues about the constitutionality of people being required to carry ID.

      I still didn’t like the hassle of being required to carry a license especially when fishing, but I certainly understood why. So, of my own free will I carry mine on me or leave it in my car, when fishing.

      I decided if I drowned, or somehow else got killed I’d like for the police to be able to contact my relatives.
