Looks like “Barn” is wanting to prove himself to ole “Andy”.

Also slipped in a favorite word of mine… “Zoinks!” Not used near enough in casual conversation now. It’s really a pity.

A few thoughts on Taszers…

Not to start a huge debate or anything but there has been a lot of chatter about the over use of Tazers, or “Stun Guns”. I will admit that there are most likely instances where they might be used when they could have gotten by without using them. But I have to admit… I grew up in a time without them. When if you ran your mouth you got a “billy club” or “sap” to the back of the head. No questions asked. So call me old fashion… but I’d rather be shocked than take a blow to the head.

A little word of advice, when a LEO pulls you over at 2 am you might not want to offer you opinions that “he works for you”, “he wouldn’t be so tough without that badge”, “you know people”, “you’ll have his badge”, “he has no idea who you are” or call him a “Facist” or “Nazi”. He most likely has been on duty for over ten hours and really doesn’t care to here your well thought out ideas on how to make a utopian society. So how about you give the guy a break be polite and explain your concerns and ideas when you go to court.

Yeah… you guessed it. I got two members of my family that are retired LEOs and friends that are current LEOs so I’m not going to cut many people a lot of slack when they complain.

Sorry for the rant.
