David Lovett

[Prime Choice]

Neighbors are upset deputies aren't on constant patrols or on a manhunt in search of David Lovett, a man accused of arson and attempted murder.

These people need to understand that the courts have consistently ruled that LEOs and LEAs are not liable for what happens to them and are not obligated to protect them in any way.

It's good these people are taking up their own defense...but it shouldn't have taken a lack of "constant patrols" to wake them up to the reality of why our Founding Fathers put the right to keep and bear arms second only to the right to freedom to worship and dissent!

Charming fellow . . .just charming.

I know some people in that neck of the woods. All of them own guns and all of them are good shots. Roof tops may sky line you but they offer good observation and fields of fire.

How can they demand protection? They should allow the inspection process to go on before any unilateral declaration of self-defense occurs. They ought to send in John Kerry to negotiate with Lovett because he may be able to get them a sweet deal where Lovett promises not to attack in exchange for a urine-for-food program, in which the residents put up money to feed him and, in return, he will urinate on them.

Police believe Lovett is hiding in the woods behind his neighborhood.

this is a job for the local fire department.

set a nice long brushfire line at the windward edge of the woods...

Uppity peasants!

Arrest all of them, take away their pitchforks & torches, so this poor, misunderstood mentally ill person can seek the catharsis he needs to cure himself without resorting to poisonous medication. So what if they lose a bit of property &/or flesh; it's not this poor insaned
victim's fault that he CAN'T BE LOCKED IN A LOONEY BIN AGAINST HIS WILL, WHERE HE HAS BELONGED FOR QUITE SOME TIME.

[Yeti]

Cute.

Paranoid schizophrenia gets pretty out of control if you don't take your meds regularly. Case in point.

I live in Rowan County also. A crack dealer moved into the duplex next door to me about three months ago. Scummy people have been coming and going at all hours of the day and night. My car was broken into last week and I have had crack heads try to beg money from me and sell me their stolen goods. Everyone on the street, including myself, has contacted the Sheriffs office to complain, and guess what? They haven't done a damn thing about it! I have lost all faith in Sheriff Wilhelm and will not vote for his relection.

"We're not going to let this thing go by," said Richard Walker. "We're protecting our property and our homes."

Excellent. Git-r-Done!
