then leave jerk.

You are part of the problem or part of the solution. Take a beating when it comes your way or you are just a piece of trash that passes it on to someone better than you are.

LOL

I just hope, if I’m in a group, I can run faster than those with me. Otherwise I’m the one getting clubbed like a baby seal.

I do understand frankiep's frustration.

I personally think the founding father's would be weeping if they knew how things are in this day in age.

Even the power at local township levels can be extreme. Where I am, they determine where, when, if someone can build anything on their own land. In one case, they approved a building site that was a good ways (1/3 to 1/2 mile) from the main road. Later they denied a driveway permit to the same site.

Heaven forbid if you PO the town chairman in anyway. One family happened to purchase land that the town chairman had wanted. It's been more than 10 years now and they have not been able to get a building site approved.

I am awaiting the memo from the town board that tells us how many breaths per year we are allotted.

I understand your resistence to those who are complaining about police abuse. That is a tatic criminals and their advocates, most times, to demonize the police and make the criminals into innocent victims. We saw the routine for years.

However, with homeland security training police officers for terrorist battle rather than civil policing and with a time of us supporting police and discounting abuse as a fake thing, some police officers and departments have gotten out of hand. They are not acting like civil police; they are acting like something else that is rude and unconstitutional.

Not all police are abusers and we do have some abusers right now that have to be challenged so we can continue to be trusting of our officers.

Hope you understand what I am saying here.

Submission to the police is required. No questions.
There are police.
And there are subjects.
