only vinyl stickers...not what I'm looking for

Those shields are issued to members of organizations such as FOP, PBA, etc. Despite the fact that this shield is described as "obsolete", I am certain that it voilates every FOP rule governing these shields to offer it for public sale.

Some police organizations even go so far as to have "blackout" periods, when their members take the shields down. During the blackout, any vehicle moving with a shield is pulled over. You would be surprised as to the number of stolen shields that are confiscated.

In short, these shields are not meant for non-members.

Do you belong to the IAFF?

If not you can't legally have one.

I am the kind of guy who would report you.

Been a member for over 30 years!

Seems to me if he was a member, he wouldn't have to post the question.

That's the nice thing about http://www.oregonfire.com . They require that you send your order in on Union letter head and pay for the merchandise with Union checks.

Maybe he is a whacker or wannabe! I saw the link he provided from e-bay. Displaying a FOP emblem on your vehicle, is like displaying an IAFF or IAFC emblem and giving everyone the impression that he is a member of these organizations.

I say if he is a member, go through the local which he belongs to.

I'm a member and I wouldn't know where to get something like that.

Maybe they don't have them down there because you can't see them through the Confederate Flag and the gun rack?
































IT WAS A JOKE!

Now wait a second, When did it become Illegal to support the IAFF whether or not you were/are a member ?

While not a member of any local, I will not display the standard Red IAFF logo sticker on my vehicle. I will and do wear Union logo shirts. These shirts have been purchased by me or for me, and was led to beleive that the purchase would support the union.

Are you one of the folks who will call me a whacker for wearing them ?


And if you could show me the laws preventing those of us not in a union from displaying these logos.

Pulled over for what? Is it illeagal to display a union sticker/badge if you're not in a union? That seems pretty rediculous.

It's not ridiculous at all. These shields are sold by the police organization only to members. They are not transferrable and they identify the vehicle displaying the shield as being owned by a member. All members are advised of the blackout and are advised if the shield is displayed during the blackout period the vehicle will be pulled over.

If the vehicle is pulled over, one of two things is true. The member screwed up and forgot to take down the shield, or the shield is stolen property. That equals probable cause.

Probable cause? Would NEVER stand up, might for a minute or two in court, but better not let the media get out that the cops are protecting their private little fraternity. They would have to trail the folks until they got a legit moving violation, but then again the way the books are written that would not have to take too long.

And which particular law school did you graduate from?

It will and it has stood up. And there isn't a thing wrong with it.

Tell me what law makes a union badge/lable an official seal? What you suggest can easily cross the line between official and union business, it can be a SERIOUS ethics violation. I appriciate the "professional courtsey" provided to me by the boys in blue, but taken to far it can be serious trouble, legally and politically for all of us.

Or it was bought on ebay by a member looking to make a quick buck... like here. but it also seems highly unlikely that that's acutally true.
