I agree completely..I looked at both the deputies facebook friends and low and behold,a lot of my old friends are there..I was quite surprised, which leaves me wondering why this even happened.

I do know one thing for sure though from experience,there are officers that are the coolest people ever but once some of them put on the badge and sidearm,there whole demeener(sp) changes.I saw that way to many times in McCall, especially for a couple reserve guys.Cool guys and friends one minute then suit'em up and azzholes the next.

Some handle it very well and others don't,it's like there 10 feet tall and bullet proof...


I perceive that a lot of this is also related to poor training. Not a lack of training, but just plain bad policy. That's why so many get a pass for behavior that should never be acceptable. This isn't just me blowin' hot air. I hear it from insiders I know.


Lunatic fringe....we all know you're out there.
