    I certainly hope so. It reminds me a bit of things I have seen in other small towns with "mafia". Wasilla was one that did, and Sarah Palin destroyed that cabal when she become mayor there.

    I am totally blown away by what I just saw here. It is beyond ludicrous if not down Unconstitutional.

    Boy, I'd have a heyday with this one.

    Sometimes "Free Speech" can be taken too far. A person can say what they want to to a judge, but the judge can have the person detained also. Same goes for talking to a law enforcement officer. A person can say what you want to, but the outcome may not be what you want.

    Good afternoon to all-
    Yes, expressing yourself is good, but sometimes, controlling yourself is better.

    It seems that some people- including politicians- just can't keep their mouths shut but must be spouting out garbage every day .It just seems logical that when dealing with law at any level, a certain amount of restraint and politeness .is the best way to go.

    Right to speak- important. Ability to be silent- priceless.

    you all be safe and keep well- Ed

    Know when to hold em ,know when to fold em.Thanks.

    Even the Bible tells us to keep our mouth shut when it comes to leaders. or a little bird will tell them what we said. I got a feeling, we ain't seen nothing yet.

    I get a little worried about an attitude that a good citizen keeps his eyes down and lip zipped.

    This isn't East Germany and we aren't still under King George III are we?
