Cheating death and fighting communism: that is how a fellow officer once described our job. It was meant to be funny, but as time went on it seemed all too true.
I spent more than ten years in law enforcement, all of it on the street in uniform patrol. I've been a patrol officer, instructor, sergeant and lieutenant.
Do not report crimes here. Nothing here should be considered legal advice. All opinions are my own.
Probably. I'd suggest looking for something related to law enforcement (if that's what you want to do) that does not include driving or the carrying of arms.

A "CPU" is only part of the computer system, and typically not the slow part. If the officer is using some type of computer, it is networked via cell data service. The network is likely 3G or slower, so sending a request (such as a check on the validity of your license) is not as fast as you might hope. Also, since many of the computers are running some type of Windows OS, crashes are common. Frequently, I have sat on the side of the road while waiting for the system to reboot. Also, if there is someone that has a warrant who has a similar name, the officer will do additional research to make sure he or she shouldn't arrest you. 10-20 minutes isn't a long time for you to be stopped.

You want to be extremely careful when getting involved in other people's affairs. You are only getting one side of things, and she is probably not giving you the entire story.
If you honestly believe that her mother is abusive, then call the police. If, on the other hand, you think that it is just a case of a teen who doesn't want to follow house rules, then do not call the police.
You certainly cannot keep her from her mother.

If it is a crime for you to carry the baton, then I would expect that you would be arrested.
