I can see him having a taser for self defense, but why on earth did they let him carry a gun?

Andy let Barney carry a gun. But seldom let him have a bullet.

Barney was allowed ONE bullet, which he had to fish out of his shirt pocket.

Apparently most agencies do not seen, or allow their reserves to be armed. I know I never was.


A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.

Here, as elsewhere, people are outraged at what feels like a rigged game -- an economy that won't respond, a democracy that won't listen, and a financial sector that holds all the cards. - Robert Reich

via Tulsa World

Robert Bates, the 73-year-old Tulsa, Oklahoma, insurance executive who likes to play cop, and also shot a guy dead, pleaded not guilty to second-degree manslaughter charges Tuesday, then got the judge’s permission to go ahead and take a family vacation in the Bahamas, because why not?

Are people supposed to just put their whole lives on hold simply because they killed someone?

Oh, really. The Bahamas. Wonder if they get US news in the Bahamas, because ... Oh, never mind. Just a fantasy.

Sorry, man. Thought that harpoon was a life preserver.
