Excellent point

Kind of a dumb point, actually. Using a state trooper as an example...

Since the government functionary is one of 6.5 million people in the state, and 3.3 million of those people are employed, the officer in question is attempting to claim "self employment" status because he pays approximately 1/3,300,000th of his own salary.

Sorry, but that's just really dumb, and signifies a rather desperate effort to defend an indefensible position. The public does, in fact, pay the salary of government workers. It is what it is. Denying it only makes one looks even dumber.

Oh, BTW... if you buy his ridiculous fiction, then you must accept that I am an astronaut. After all, I've been within 1/285,000th of the distance to the moon.

Is it any more ridiculous then one person saying "I pay your salary". I think that was the point.

Wait, Phylo drives an electric car?

 

[Stang51d]

Not at all taking this the same way. Not at all. And I agree that it's the field house deal, but I don't like it either. Not saying they shouldn't be able to carry, just saying that we all should be able to.
For that matter, I always do. And they will have to tell me to leave. And no one has yet, so, I guess it's all good.

It's in case a suspect in a Prius needs to be chased. It just wasn't fair to pursue it with real cruiser.

Police Political Correctness.

We just let the dogs run those down and "fetch" them back. Same with Smart cars.

Wait, Phylo drives an electric car?

Yes, yes I do. I actually like the thing. If I feel man man card is beginning to wrinkle I can always drive my Ram 4x4 or Wrangler Rubicon. I figure a mile in either of those makes up for 20 in the Volt.

Can cops carry at bankers life? I should make a thread and ***** about it. After all, I pay their salary! Stupid Nazi Jack booted thugs!

...and Phylo drives a wind up toy to and from work, and even has to wind it himself and pay for the rubber bands if they snap.

We get free drinks at Speedway.

We get free drinks at Speedway.

I got offered a ree drink at a Gas America once.

I asked why and the clerk said, "Cops don't pay."

Then I told him I wasn't a cop.

Then he made me pay, 'cause I wasn't a cop. And it was a 44 oz Diet Mtn Dew.

So I paid for my drink and drank it on the way home.

The End

 

[SSGSAD]

I personally, LIKE the fact that "YOU GUYS" have a marked car sitting in your driveway, or garage..... I believe in a "Police Presence"..... I think it keeps me "safe"..... BUT, I still carry, because I am responsible for my own safety ..... But if any of you, need me, I am available, and will always have your back .......

Where should I start rioting?
