Did you ask any of the moderators online at the time why, because they would be the only ones that would know for sure .

The discussion was removed from this Forum. "If we don't start pushing back effectively..." has to be thought as "We have to push back effectively..." but when Forums suppress these discussions they support Police actions.

Forums only suppress these threads when it turns into a poop show and does nothing to benefit the hunting, shooting or outdoors community.


There is a million other forums that just let'er buck so visit those ones....

The Mods here do a fabulous job of keeping things clean here and I applaud them.

Unfortunately, a large number of the general population has been manipulated to believe that lawful firearms owners and users should be lumped in with criminals.

agree and that is why we must keep our conversations civil.

My father years ago was basically like Andy Griffith. Was chief of police. Everybody liked him. Police years ago where part of the community.
Now a days if they use common sense they are accused of profiling.
Stupid, excessive laws where only enforced if the officer thought it was benefiting the community.
They wore blue instead of black. Revolvers where carried in a flap holster. They didn't want to look like a army that was occupying an area.
The Mayor was implying to my dad that since they were not issuing many tickets that maybe they didn't need so many police officers. So then they started issuing warnings to show that they were working.
Then the town came up with an idea to punish them and to save money. They replaced one of the patrol cars with a police bike.
It was a fancy Kawasaki 1100 if I remember right. They all refused to drive it. They thought it was something a kid would ride on.
When I see modern police on bicycles and flac jackets,dressed in black,gun belts etc I just shake my head because I know what my dad would have thought.
I guess times are different now. There was no real crime years ago. Drugs like meth where not around.People where different and I guess the police where to.

The good old days and I miss them.
It’s not us that went bad. It was our leaders.
