At this point, everybody yawns when people, usually self-loathing left-wing activists, compare America to Nazi Germany. In one particular instance, however, it is not some bleeding heart liberal making the charge.
Federal police officer Ronnie Hankins and his wife Lisa were driving home from his grandfather’s funeral when Virginia police pulled the couple over. Thinking that the officers wanted to ask about their out-of-state license plate or Lisa’s, being Hispanic, immigration status, the Hankins’ obeyed the hailing patrol car and parked on the side of the road.
After they were pulled over, the cops separated the two and began interrogating them. Lisa in particular was subjected to repeated attempts by an officer tied to the 23rd Judicial District Drug Task Force to consent to a search of their car. Knowing they were carrying no drugs and had done nothing wrong, Lisa refused, even as the officer kept pestering her for a “yes or no” answer.
Of course, her answer wouldn’t have mattered anyway, because the cops brought out a K-9 dog to sniff the vehicle. Signaling that there were drugs in the Hankins’ car, the police promptly searched it, although as Ronnie realized, it wasn’t drugs they were looking for.
See what the police were searching for on the next page:
Why do people keep saying this was Virginia, was it not I-40 just west of Nashville? The video I watched did.
Dickson county Tennessee, just west of Nashville I-40. Damn get your story straight, journalism much?
This is what the liberals are slowly doing to this country, soon it will be a complete Police State just like Germany was in 1939!!!

A city police force in Florida was shut down after it was proven their department was 90% funded by traffic stops.
Karma! He is a cop and has more than likely violated somebody’s rights himself. With that said…this sort of thing is criminal behavior and has to stop.
What?
