Years ago I went to a Grateful Dead concert at the Norfolk Coliseum. We left a little early to get a jump start on the long drive back home and saw two long columns of patrol cars lining up all along the exit road. It looked something out of Eastwood’s “The Gauntlet”.
We were happy to leave town.
I’ve never had a face to face incident with VA LEO’s but what I have observed certainly displayed to me that they are a badge strong group.
Myself I prefer officers who approach with a smile first, then the club if necessary.
