In Spain, carnival, Can carry a gun and manacles, although these are toy if you disguise police? On March 2, 2014, Saturday carnival, three friends decided to walk along the Ramblas in Barcelona, disguised as policemen of the city of New York. They wandered for about two hours. During this tour they saw many cops in service, both “Mossos” as agents of the Guardia Urbana of Barcelona. No problem … until full wadis, we stopped two urban Guards. We were told that if they wanted to, they could requisarnos weapons and shackles. The law allowed not go down the street with these objects. And this could also be the cause of an administrative fine. We answered them that weapons had red tips and triggers, which were toy, and that the shackles were plastic, not metal. And we were carnival. The response from agents was that they can still seize such objects, to which we responded (always with good education and without intention to have a discussion) that if they wanted to seize them, we had no objection. They could get up minutes and removed, but that would request in writing to the Commissioner, being these our property, even
though its value was a few euros. Also I commented that the writer has a shop called Insigpol and police equipment that could have carried a gun metal and metal shackles, but we did, to avoid precisely the fine or we llamasen attention. Nothing is further from our intention. For some reason, agents, replied to us in response that, in addition tourists could confuse with real cops, and that’s a crime. To this I replied that for our part, nothing is further from our intention, and if someone we would not be confused with Spanish police, would be tourists, as they travel and saw that police were leaving New York. And also, we had no intention to pretend that we are police or usurp functions and we were just enjoying the carnival.
Policeman not asked for ID, and I guess we were seeing “normal” people , they let him be . But the question is going disguised If the police could have seized our guns and shackles ?
You can not carry a truncheon as part of Disguise We did not get along , but if you take truncheon or ” defense” this is what the R. D. 137/1993 of 29 January (REG GUNS . ) Art.5 : “1. advertising, sale , possession and use , except for specially authorized officials , and according to what have the respective regulatory standards is prohibited : c . Electrical defenses , rubber batons or similar ( extendable ) . ” We do not recommend carrying truncheon , even toy . In Spain for some reason , you can purchase a battery of baseball but a truncheon , it is a prohibited weapon, even to take home. The Civil Guard has come to remove up foam sticks … something we can not understand. So I in your place , I’d skip the truncheon. You can not really wear handcuffs as part of a costume On the ” metal shackles ” ORDER of 11 June 1975 on rules for issuing handcuffs and shackles Article 5 says:
“Individuals who for any reason possessed today handcuffs, shackles or safety loops must deliver the intervention of Weapons of the Civil Guard, within thirty days, incurring failure to do so in the corresponding responsibility.” Here we understand that, you can not call shackle shackles of toys, made entirely of plastic. If the agent requisase plastic shackles, you can ask that you lift minutes, and specified in the record that these shackles are plastic. We do not believe that any police do such a thing. Well What explanation would give your superior? it would be ridiculous. And remember that we always talk about carnival. If the police for you and you remove (requisitioning) of the police costume Always ask that you raise record. This is not a police background, it is only an administrative act. In this way you will you guarantee that everything is “official” and that the police do not act on their own. In addition, so you can claim in writing what is your property. Before you you have to tell the police who you solicitaréis to be returned. Possibly the police did not take minutes, for the work involved, and why carnival, it is not so bad carrying a toy gun or shackles. In fact thousands of people go disguised as police, gun, or shackled prisoners. Etc etc,. Maybe if ye have no problem, it is to “armed” part of the rua carnival. Before you must register in your municipality. There you say that you will go in disguise, and not only will not have any problem, if not also be the police who ensure the proper functioning of the rua, and do not say anything.
