I think there are several reasons why someone would want to be LEO.
Desire to Protect and Serve
Looking for a relatively easy job
likes the idea of being a legal bully

There have always been the bullies and the donut connoisseurs. Hopefully there are still more than a few of the Protect and Serve ones around.

I read the title the other day and didn’t click on the story. I thought the same thing - that he went to look up the Code and came back the next day to shut her down.

We’ve become really jaded and cynical.

I thought the story was going to say the cop returned the next day with a court order shutting it down.

Turns out that old Andy was pretty easily-swayed by leftist lies.

Andy Griffith sure was. Sheriff Andy Taylor, not so much. That's the way I like to look at it anyway.

Unfortunately, the TV myth is what sells in America.

And why “star power” is wrecking the country.

You don’t get it, do you?

A police officer doing his job and just being a decent person should not be so remarkable that it rates a news story.

And I do not need to read about police abuse stories as I used to live them about once a month when I lived in California.

I don’t live there anymore.

I worked for a guy who used to stop at lemonade stands and give the kids a $20. I’ve tried continuing his tradition and honoring his memory.
