The Federal government has an illegal national registry of gun owners and is sharing that information with local police.
When John Filippidis, a Florida resident, was traveling through Maryland earlier this year he was stopped by a officer from the Maryland Transportation Authority Police (MTAP), who after 10 minutes on the radio knew he had a concealed carry permit from Florida.
Filippidis left his gun at home, in honor of the gun laws in other states, and stated this to the officer. However, his wife stated ‘it might be in the glove box’, which resulted in a 90 minute search of his car.
The officer called Mr. Filippidis a ‘liar’ and ripped through everything “riders, luggage, Christmas gifts, laundry bags,” and all.
It is against federal law to have a national gun registry, yet here is, once again, proof that the federal government is lawless and intent on disarming Americans.
When Floridian concealed carry permit holder John Filippidis and his family drove through Maryland on their way to New Jersey for Christmas, he was pulled over by the Maryland Transportation Authority Police (MTAP), accused of having a gun, humiliated, and searched along with his car and family.
According to The Tampa Tribune, Filippidis normally carries a Kel-Tec semi-automatic pistol for concealed carry. But knowing the gun laws in Maryland and New Jersey, he decided to leave it at home in his safe instead of bringing with him on the trip.
Said Filippidis: “I know the laws and I know the rules, but I think it’s a better idea to leave it at home.”
While driving through Maryland, he was pulled over by a MTAP officer who asked for vehicle license and registration, then went back to the patrol car. “Ten minutes later” the officer came back to the driver’s window, asked Filippidis to exit the Ford Expedition and took him behind the vehicle to ask where his gun was.
Filippidis told the officer he left it at home in a safe.
The officer then walked up to the passenger window and asked Filippidis’ wife where the gun was, and she said: “I don’t know… Maybe in the glove [box]. Maybe in the console. I’m scared of it.”
Following this, the Tribune says the officer returned to Filippidis, called him “a liar,” then spent roughly 90 minutes searching the car for a gun that wasn’t there. This meant emptying the car of its contents—”riders, luggage, Christmas gifts, laundry bags,” and all.
After finding no gun, the officer issued Filippidis a warning and sent him on his way.
The officer’s captain and “a Maryland Transportation Authority Police internal affairs captain” have since both apologized for the incident. Filippidis has not decided yet what his next step will be.
WE THE PEOPLE have to get this abuse of over reaching IL LEAGAL government under this fraud of P O T U S stopped and retrieve our rights back!!!
and again, the only reason a gov. needs this info is because they are corrupt and want to know who has the ability to oppose them. Get smart people never vote for a democrat again while we impeach the most anti-American president that ever lived in the white house!
This is BS!!!!
ARE WE AT WAR WITH SOMEONE>
this must be stopped
They knew I had a CCW 30 seconds after the stop. In obtaining a ccw you are required to be finger printed and a back ground checked. It is odd it took 10 mins for them to find out. If you don’t want to be on a registry of ccw holders then don’t get 1. That is why I no longer have 1.
First one to show up thinking they have rights to take my guns can think again they will get one end of it an its my right an for one if they show with out probable cause warrents an what not their trespassing an thats against the law an I have every right to protect whats mine by any means an yes what was the wife babbling on for in my thought none of her business if he has the permit its for him to handle not her
Those damn Nazis are going to suffer when our Revolution wins, and sends them to the pits of Hell where they were born in!
Vote people..vote these communist out of their offices…Nov. vote!!!!!!
This is what happens when Paramilitary training occurs. NSA, FEMA, CIA, FBI, DHS, BLM. Give them all the letters you want. It ALL comes down to this. Civil war build up. Courtesy of Obama and his mission to destroy America. They have turned the police into a paramilitary state where the violence against the people is to force Obama’s dictatorship down our throats. IT IS WAR PEOPLE! Stop them now! Obama’s rein of terror is real. These attacks are increasing! Our local Chemeketa Community College in Salem, OR was turned into a police paramilitary training center on May 8th, 2014. They have been training and building up the cops to go to war against the people when the dictator Obama calls marshal law against us. Which WILL be this summer after Obama’s new law goes into affect at the 1st. of July. It will destroy the American dollar and put China in control.
