Now, we pretty much have a standing occupation army.

Gets around that icky "Posse Commitatus" stuff.

Wonder how Randy Weaver’s kid is doing these days? No follow up stories?

[DuncanWaring]

Which kid?

As I recall, he had three (that lived).

Yes, all of them.

You know, considering that they spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on equipment for these goobers with badges, why can’t they spend another few hundred on a high-pressure water fire extinguisher? That will give ANY dog, even trained attack dogs, second thoughts.

On the subject of equipment, these clowns aren’t busting in wearing sandals, bermuda shorts and Izod short-sleeve shirts. Steel-toed boots, Kevlar/bullet-proof everything, and so on. This is way beyond what the people who have the unfortunate, but neccessary job as “the attacker” in dog training wear. You mean they are scared of getting bit? Why am I paying for all of this crap, then?

If they are that afraid of dogs, they really should be in another line of work where they will be warm and safe. Maybe as florists.

I recommend the Bark Off....as seen on teevee. 4 easy monthly payments.
