Keep in mind that the deputies were local men who reflected local values; they weren't big city cops with different values. Many (not all) who've posed in this thread have never been to Idaho, or Adams County, or Council and, might be a little fast in condemning the shooting. Let's wait until the investigations are through and a report published.
You sound PARTICULARLY, "inside the beltway" with this jewel of jewels.
I agree,....you did NOT read this thread before delivering this blither, did you ?
Simple yes or no will suffice.

This thread has 172 pages with many posts; no, I did not read them all. I did read about 45-50 which gave me an opinion as to how here many feel.
BTW, I now live in small-town Northern Colorado, about 1700 miles from the beltway. And, I worked in Idaho when in college (Adams and Valley Counties) as a smokejumper. I regularly visit central Idaho to see friends and I know how they feel re this situation.
Idaho has always been conservative and gone its own way. In 1963, I saw a man shot and later die outside a central Idaho bar. When the deputy sheriff arrived 2 hours later (long drive over poor roads), he got out of his car, saw the body and said (to the effect), "He was a no-good SOB anyway" He just got back in the car and drove away.

Well Hillary Clinton and Company CERTAINLY wouldn't like that, would they ?
Why don't you get your azz over there, find out what's up, and report back with something a little more Western,....the beltway stink is strong in your text, Mister.

What about those that have been to Idaho, council or even the Yantis ranch? Can we have an opinion?
If by representing local values you mean beating old men and losing your job only to be hired by another department where the same cop kills an unarmed man....well I don't think those are good values nor do they represent the community's values.
So you know the Yantis family personally? I wondered why you took everything on this thread so personally.

Was this about the same time you killed a grizzly bear inside Glacier Park without reporting it?

I am pretty the sentence containing the word "we" in it.
Of course most us know that you were only trying to add to your drama theme.

Poor Ace. He tells big whopper stories full of drama and gets his feelers hurt when he gets called on it.
Tell the story again about when you worked for the police department (though you refuse to tell what job you had there) and got all the privileged information about cops committing crimes.

this must be tough for you Cross....
The Sheriff is always right...the Rancher is always right...holy schidt, the Sheriff (s deputy) shot the Rancher.
Cognitive dissonance is what you are feeling. It happens when reality intrudes on deeply held contradictory feelings.
So, you can either clam up, or keep showing your ass....
This Sycamore fella' sure has a chickish way of carrying on, doesn't he ?
You better go check under your bed and in your clothes closets for Joe Arpaio or one of his minions, dipchit.
....one of them may slip in there while your foaming at the mouth and snapping at my heels like some demented little lap dog.
shoo !

Interesting comments from an Adams county resident.Sounds like one of the officers had more in his closet than is public.It is disturbing to know this was going on just a few miles south of me.
Living in the upper end of the county a person don't hear all that's going on.Frankly I'm appalled. If only a small portion of this is true, it is way too much. Adams County is going to really be hurting and I can find one person to blame more than any other. I was told that there are 20+ lawsuits over abuse by county cops against citizens. I also heard that there is a recall for the sheriff. I'd say that is a little late in coming. I was told that he ran his campaign on drying up Council and New Meadows. Drinking and drinking and driving are not the same. Anyone who knows me, knows what I think of drinking and driving and I consider it a criminal offense close to ipremeditated murder. But I still have to ask why has he allowed his department to get so out of hand?Cops have to uphold extremely high standards and they have not. I also heard that they threw around a 76 year old long time resident and really tore up her shoulder. Yes--I said her. Now that must have been really tough for them to have handled right. I've also heard that one of the cops who shot Jack also was involved in throwing a 71 year old man across a car hood and the man won a law suit over it. The same cop was also said to have shot a man getting out of his pickup. I still don't know the story there. This is a rural county and many of the citizens, especially the ranchers and their families have lived here for many generations. Where is this police brutality coming from? There needs to be a serious investigation into the police all over this nation.
A tribute to Jack from some of his friends...Needlessly shot by deputies for responding to dispatches request to do what ranchers do for there wounded or crippled livestock.....
