Are you confusing the two men? Northington is not the retired deputy and the story gives no information as to the deputy’s name,age, or family status.’
Northington,who is the fired security officer, DOES have a family, and appears to be a decent working man.
A why use the disparaging “rent a cap” label?
Thanks for smacking-me-straight!
Just so the forum understands. I have difficulty recognizing the “executive branch authority” of any policeman outside of the purview of the local sheriff.
Why does the IRS have armed enforcers?
Why does the USDA have armed enforcers?
Why does the mayor of a duly cconstituted and incorporated village/town/city need “armed enforcers” (hint: is the mayor’s charge to defend the citizenry from harm, danger and other acts of war?).
Within the framework of the US Constitution, it does not make sense to me.
Now, when said “armed enforcers” go off-the-clock and yet remained armed in service to private business and citizens, we have made a step nearer a police-state.
Just my opinion.
And I could care less about the opinon of anyone here regarding the prejorative “rent-a-cop”.
Good shoes have a tendency to fit comfortably.
