You're misinformed, sir.

Jim Howe, the father, is arrested for disorderly conduct for no clear reason and has filed a lawsuit.

Good thing he didn't bring along the family dog.

I thought even the Sherriffs deputys in Podunk Bumscrew had to pass some kind of intelligence test to be a LEO.

Would very much like to see a follow-up. Bookmarked.

P.S. - I would have been arrested, too. I don’t back down when it comes to my family.

They could get better officers if they paid minimum wage.

The important thing here is that the cop’s ego went home intact.

If this doesn’t show that tyranny is entrenched, nothing will.

Apathy is a fatal disease to any republic.

I usually give a reason for picking up the kid at school (or in some instances ... coming in late) — but I’ve never been under the impression that I was required to give a reason.

How many more examples of these Progressive control freaks do we need to see before we:

1) Home school if you have the time and ability
2) Private school if you have the money
3) Non-union charter school as a last resort.

DEFUND the public school system one child at a time.

Any other choice and this insanity will continue.

Funny these same control Nazis would have been more than happy to see you abort your child but once you made the wrong decision to have them the Progressives want total control over their lives.

For now, Mr Howe.

When I watched this video two and a half hours ago, it had about 1,500 views. At this moment, it has 27,676 views.

There’s gotta be a backstory here. The deputy is irritated by the guy as soon as he enters, and refers to prior incidents. The guy freely admits he’s been in county jail before.

Still, the deputy seems to be playing the role of a fascist brownshirt, which is all too common among LEO types nowadays. If the guy just wants to walk his daughter home, Deputy Friendly would just let him do it in a free republic. In a free republic, Deputy Friendly would not even think of interfering with a father and daughter absent extreme circumstances.
