You are so screwed up, when it comes to US Radio Law, you wouldn't know
the REAL FACTS, if they bit you in the Arse....

First Off: What Cops, are saying WHAT, about which Frequencies?
Be VERY specific....
Second Off: It would be VERY hard to a local prosecutor to try
such a case, even in a local Court, KNOWING that
it would likely be overturned in the first Federal
Court where the case landed.
Third Off: Local Cops, and even State Cops, do not have jurisdiction
in the enforcement of FEDERAL Laws, and should they try,
the local Federal Marshal would slap them down in a
nanosecond. That is HIS Job.
Fourth Off: Cops can, and do, say a lot of stuff, about which they have
NO CLUE, just like YOU do. Just because some local IDIOT
LEO says something, does NOT make it True, or in fact
Legally, the LAW. I have testified in MANY Courts of Law
on just these kinds of issues, and mostly the local LEO
has it WRONG, and the IDIOT Prosecutor, gets his hands
slapped by the local Judge, once the correct FEDERAL
Statutes, are introduced into Evidence, if it ever
actually gets that far, in the first place.....
I mean REALLY... Duh....


Just Say'en...... YMMV.....

first off, radioguy is a frickin ignorant asswipe,
second off, local cops enforce federal law every day of the year.
e.g., a convicted felon is found with a gun. that's a federal law.
when sworn in they take oaths to "uphold the laws of the United States and
the US Constitution....".

Local and State Cops Do NOT enforce Federal Law... They enforce State
Law... What you cite is cases where BOTH State and Federal Statutes
prohibit a convicted Felon from possessing a Firearm, and the local or
State cops are enforcing the State Statutes, NOT the Federal One.


US marshals rarely deal with cops who enforce the law.

apparently you have never dealt with a US Marshal... I have, many times,
as a Resident Field Agent for the FCC, reTIRED... and know exactly of
what I speak..... When on land, the US Marshal provides any muscle needed
for ALL Federal Agencies that do not have Police Powers, inherent in
their founding Statutes. On the water, it is the USCG, that provides the
enforcement function, for any Federal agency, that doesn't have Police
Powers. Nobody messes with a Federal Marshal. Their Police Powers are
valid anywhere inside US Territory, Period... including Military Bases.
The USCG has those same Police Powers on ANY navigable body of water,
for US flagged Vessels, as well as foreign vessels inside US Territorial
waters, PERIOD... No one messes with a USCG Boarding Party, either...

Just Say'en.....

Read the constitution. You will find that sheriffs are the law.
It's only when you have assholes like Eric Holder running the country do
you hear them whining about local cops enforcing federal law.
