Why did I have to go first???


The department would hire the El camino crew before giving my application a second look. I'm too old anyway. But you know that.

By the way, I was not criticizing the officers actions as much as SteveO's "announcement".

I'll have to pass on that, but thanks for the information.
For the record, I don't have a problem with the GW shooting the deer, just the reasoning that was used to explain it away, I think the deer should have been left alone. Everything can't be explained away as being in the name of public safety. But if he wanted to shoot the deer, he obviously did, then go ahead, he's the law nobody can stop him right.

[LODI QUACKER]

Nope he can do anything he wants too!!! Not a thing you can do about it.

[fireplug]

he's calling folks out. I couldn't pass physical requirements to be a walmart greater so I'm out.

People are so sensitive over here.

Wingman, not to discount what you guys do at all, but why isn't the MDWFP similar to other law enforcement agencies where they can hire part-time/seasonal enforcement. I'm not saying the guys don't have to do some of the training etc, but why can't they have guys like you who are full time, and during the seasons when you need more help to catch spot lighters, road hunters, etc. they can ramp up staff. Just seems like you guys get spread pretty thin during the busy times.

The day I pull up to a check station and get checked by 420racin is the day I quit hunting and take up some sissy sport like golf. Oh wait, I have seen that ugly sucker in golf shorts before. I may just take up crochet or tennis then (bout the same) if hammer can be an expert at them.

[420 racin]

I'd have to check you in the woods peewee, can't let you get to the check station!!

[jacksbuddy]

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Y'all ain't paid enough.


(And I thought I was a lowly paid government employee. Sheez.)

Ever been a Soldier? Ever fought a war?

No I haven't, but my dad was a combat tracker in Vietnam, my grandfather drove a tank at Normandy and The Bulge, and my other grandfather was in WW2 and Korea. I dang sure don't go criticizing the troops because I've never been in their shoes.

I'd like to think soldiers and cops have a totally different line of work, but the thing with being a cop is, when bad guys come at you with a gun, society expects you to pepper spray them and cuff them without harming them. And heaven forbid an unarmed assailant gets shot. Heck, I can't even take my AR out when I'm approaching folks with shotguns and rifles without being told that's too harsh. Let a man come running after you with a 12 gauge in his hand and you draw your pistol. Bam! Instant internet butthole.
