If you don't want to put your ass on the line, then find a safer way to make your money.

Exactly. I'm tired of hearing all this "for their safety" BS.

Our Freedom is more important than their safety.

If the JBTs don't like it, they can go to Russia, Mexico, or China, where their "safety" is considered more important than the Freedom of the citizens there.

I wonder how long before the automatons come in and start giving us hell for not worshiping at the PC shrine of LEO heroism?

A few years ago, I had a friend who was dating a cop. He liked to regale us with tales of his and other LEO exploits. I earned a life long enemy when I told him there wasn't a damned thing he did to protect me or my family that I couldn't do for myself. He made her stop being a friend to me as long as they were dating, one of the reasons they split up.

Control freak? I'll let you decide.

Considering the time it would take for a cop to show up after a 911 call, I let him know the only reason I would call the local PD is to come out and clean up the mess after the danger was passed.

The Mr. reminded me of an incident in New Mexico where a man was arrested for shooting a wolf that was attacking his dog. Do you recall that one?
