armed and rangerous? the actual POLICE police tend to be better than these arses who rarely meet more than a deer or moose.
They really are lucky that no one was a marksman and took the matter to a more serious level.
Here in NJ we had an incident years ago in the Ramapo Mountains where some locals got into a tussle with two park rangers (they were riding ATVs on land where they shouldn’t have). They had a history of ignoring any regulations, and when one of them took a baton away from a female ranger in the tussle, the male ranger shot & killed him (he was later exonerated in the shooting). This was a big story because it involved a native “tribe” (the Ramapoughs, a small group with no real “native” ancestry that is recognized only by NJ and NY - the Fed government doesn’t recognize them, and shouldn’t), and because our park rangers don’t use their guns on people very often.
We live in a state park area and the rangers are useless, egotistical and go from 0-80 in about 6 seconds.
My wife is afraid of them because they are either very creepy to her, or have anger management issues.
I totally believe this event based on my own dealings with the Ranger Rickys...
