I may be biased, but the ND Highway Patrol and some of the Sheriff's Departments have some of the most professional (and helpful) police officers I have seen.
I agree. This cop did nothing wrong in my opinion. He seen to it the animal was put down to stop suffering. He did no harm to my 2nd Amendment rights. He was just a common sense person.
The cop was with the Watford City PD, he was an American Indian. This county had a Black Sheriff. My point with the racial mix, is there just was no prejudice against this straight white Christian male.
The deer was hit a few miles south of Watford on US 85.
When I went to renew my concealed carry, this Sheriff simply invited me into his office, we had coffee and we just shot the breeze about stuff such our past military experiences. Then he just signed my request and I was on my way.
I also knew a Highway Patrol chick. We had a discussion about speeding. She said she knew the tanker trucks needed to get up speed going down a hill just to make it up over the next hill and cut slack accordingly. I don’t think you will find this in let’s say Maryland or Pennsylvania where my last recollections is they were merciless when it comes to tickets.
These were all “people” cops, they wanted to get along with those they serve and absolutely no power agendas.
