Hey, Red! Hope all is well with you and all here! Ya', been busier than a cat cover'n up what cats cover up and a lot of changes in the past several years. I got an email that 'Sparkle' had posted to the thread and it surprised me, but it also spurred me to stop on by. BTW, welcome Sparkle!
Things have slowed a bit for me, so hopefully I'll get to stop by from time to time. Thanks Sparkle & Red. Again, hope everyone is well during these crazy times. I'm fine and dandy. Really good to hear from you. I'm glad you're here, how can we improve peoples' opinion of our police. It must be hard to do such a tough job under so many negative attacks. Do you have a new horse? I miss your pictures.

Thanks, Red. Folks that don't believe in the Constitution aren't going to be persuaded to change (IMHO). This whole issue is being driven by organized marxists (Imho). As for me, I took an oath to uphold the constitution, and NOT to enforce... ALL LAWS. "Discretion," has not been taken away from LEO's at this point. If it is, then all MUST reevaluate! Upholding the Constitution is up to the citizens and each individual LEO.
No new horse. Lost my avatar/teacher 4 years ago this past July. Still have horses for the grandkids, but no longer working mounted... unfortunately.

I took an oath a long time ago in the Navy, 1969. but it is still valid. I blame a lot of this unrest on absent fathers. Our nuclear family is under Marxist attack. BLM is a marxist political party. Scary.

So good to hear from you old friend. I am getting tired, but I'll sleep better tonight, glad you're here. If you think of me, you won't get a winks sleep! As I said above, no new ponies and no more working mounted like before. The one in my avatar I lost 4 years ago. He was a tough one but my, "teacher." Had him for 24 years. He was two when we got him. He taught me how to work with the wild ones like him. He was big enough that you couldn't jerk him around. He taught me and many others the art of, finesse. Danged critters anyhow!

Old friends never leave you, like that Guy Clark song. Trying to imagine you not being on a horse is hard.

Glad to see you again, Lt. Me too was "away for a while" (troubles at job).
