Palo Alto police -- rewards

Posted by David Hardy · 11 April 2007 01:48 PM

This posting reports that Palo Alto CA police are posting reward signs offering $1000 for information on people with guns.

I'd be happy to call up and volunteer the information that I have guns, if someone would send me $1000. That's be enough to buy still more guns!

NB: The ad was placed by the East Palo Alto PD, not the Palo Alto PD. East Palo Alto is adjacent to Palo Alto; but they are in different counties (San Mateo and Santa Clara, respectively) and have very different demographic and crime patterns.

I am not a lawyer so would someone please tell me: Doesn't the fourth amendment apply to employees and contractors for the police?

"Doesn't the fourth amendment apply to employees and contractors for the police?"

Since we have a "Living Constitution", the second and fourth amendments do not apply in California.

It doesn't say illegal guns. It doesnt say what jurisdiction. If the police put up a sign like this for illegal aliens it would be considered racist and there would be International pressure to stop the campaign. from ar15 dot com's comments

Yeah, I called them and asked to speak to the Sgt. on duty.

He called me back and when I questioned him. "What if someone calls the police on their neighbor who's a legal gunowner?" His only response was, "We don't get any calls like that."

I should've written down my questions because I was going to ask him about the 'reports' that they take for all the 'incidents'.
