A person on the 'wrong end' of that has a choice to either accept it, try to change it by getting involved, or find an alternative location. lol Unless you're 'dead' because you were murdered by one of these 'local' cops...! It pays to have some foresight.

It pays to have some foresight. OK, that clears it up for all of us. Thanks. It's Jack Yantis's fault that he's dead because he didn't have the "foresight" to be directly involved in the actual hiring of the 'local' cops who killed him...! That's all you had to say. End of thread.
Every day on this side of the ground is a win.

This was a county sheriff department. Whenever I have moved to a new county I see how the deputes react with the public and see how well they do their jobs. I believe that is a reflection of the man at the top. If the the deputies are doing a good job then That sheriff is the right man for the job, if not get rig of the bad apple and elect a good one.
I have been lucky, The last three counties I have lived in had good men from top to bottom. The voters need vote this guy out just on the fact alone he has not cleaned house.

GTC GTC Well, I disagree with your assessment of my personal qualities, although you certainly are entitled to your opinion. I realize that my response was a bit sarcastic, but it was in response to a sarcastic post. It further is backed by my personal belief, based on a great deal of reflection, that I bought an extra 20 years (so far) of a great quality of life by not waiting until the 3 dot sights were on my back to relocate. Now, your opinion plus my opinion combined, plus about $1.50, will buy us a cruddy cup of coffee made by a guy whose 22 year old assistant manager boss probably earns a salary within strike distance of what the deputies involved in this incident earned.

I pay taxes, I vote in every election & I've yet to see a prospective LEO hire on the ballot, or a Chief of Police either.
The only LEO position, nationwide, generally elected by the public is the county sheriff's position.
The CoP is hired by the city commission the then the CoP hires whomever he might want as an officer. The public has zero direct say; to imply otherwise is either ignorance or disingenuous.
Indirectly, city commissioners are voted on, but changing them or the CoP is never a short term proposition.
YMMV, but I kinda doubt for most of the country.

Cops do have privilege. With it comes responsibility. Didn't you say you tried it for a little while? They mostly want the "privilege" . . . . . . . . GFY

I realize that my response was a bit sarcastic, ......and you're as proud, smarmy, and cocky about that as a young pullet with her first fuggin' EGG. You make light of that which is a LONG way from being so. GTC

Hey Dink, have I told you to go fugg yourself lately? Your the kind of piece of sheit that won't condemn these low life scumbags. I'm sure we'll read about you in the news as some point. I hope it's some low life you kill, not an honorable cattleman like Mr. Yantis.

He precipitated his own death, and won't get any tears from me.
Don't think a "mindset" about how police are going to react to an armed man interfering their attempts to rescue injured people is going to change much from coast to coast.

It still boils down to what the public is willing to tolerate in taxes and spending priorities, and what the local culture is willing to tolerate in unethical or illegal behavior. When the locals have had enough to roll some figurative heads, things change. Seen it. Done it.

End of thread. Public Employees defending Public Employees can border on Manic Depressive Bipolor behavior.... They don't give a rats azz what the taxpayers want or believe in. They live with an organized crime family mentality and pay only lip service to Democracies. Don't believe this....walk into your next Town Meeting or Election and announce you are going to work to reform public government and it's employee's..... You will find out right quickly what kind of a Democracy you actually live in.
Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny.
