Excise cops -- a waste of protoplasm

Headline in tonight's local rag: Excise police issued 52 citations during Fall Festival

http://www.courierpress.com/news/2010/oct/14/excise-police-issued-52-citations-during-fall-fest/

WTF?? They issued citations. They didn't arrest folks for D&D, or Public Intox -- they issued citations!  And then we read a little farther and see this:

45 of the citations were for underage possession of tobacco

Jesus Christ on a crutch! The Festival is a street fair. That means it's outside. And most Evansvillains smoke heavily. So these assholes ran around carding kids with smokes in their hands. Is this a good use of my tax dollars? Can I see the ROI figures?

The head excise asshole around here is named (really) Ronald McDonald. Ya gotta wonder if he could have made a more valuable contribution to society if his mother had had the sense to name him Tom.

  Like I have said before, I hate cops all cops.  But our law makers with their feel good laws and the Sheeple who back these assholes.  Are producing a Police State.  When you really think about it, these burr hair cut, damn cops have the power of life or death over us.  They are paramilitary trained, they are not peace offices anymore.  They are not trained to wound or cripple you, they are trained to "TAP" you in the chest three times.  Shoot you three times in the chest with 9mm bullets.  They are trained to kill you, if they think you are resisting arrest.

  If one of the kids had ran when approached by one of these assholes.  The could have shot him to death for running.  Saying, " well, he ran and resisted arrest and would not stop".  This is what has happen to our lives.  I would like to know how many people, the these damn cops kill every year.

  I hate to say it, I'm almost glad I'm 72 years old.  With the predatory capitalist running this country and lowering our standard of living and with the police state they are creating, I don't want to live is this new coming world.

As a general rule, excise cops do not kill people.

Evansville Excise Officer Ronald McDonald lives for the rush he gets from catching underage drinkers in the act. The power he holds over people is never wasted. He gave a ticket to a 21 year old man a few years ago because he had went into a liquor store and purchased some beer. His crime? He had a 20 year old friend in his car outside. While the minor registered a blank on the breathalyzer, McDonald used his psychic powers to deduce that this 20 year old planned to consume some of that beer. Just like that movie where in the future they can tell you are going to commit a crime before you have a chance to do it so they arrest and throw you in jail! I wonder if Ronny had just come from seeing that movie?

  Have you ever noticed that it takes a certain type of person who wants to be a cop.  Usually a nibnose asshole who always wants to stick it in  everybodies business, guns, military shit, leather, police cars with big red lights and siren and tools to beat the hell out of someone.  But the main thing is a hardcore BULLY, but yellow to the core without his badge (police power) and gun.

NO, I have NEVER noticed that!!!...YOU need to quit 'STEOTYPING' people.....I know SEVERAL cops, ONE of them is a great friend of mine, who is a fantastic person...I'm not sure what happened in your life to make you such a grouchy ol coot....but the VAST majority of the guys I know are decent people who "protect and serve"...they do not make a great deal of money, but they ARE similar to those who serve in the military, they do it for reasons most cannot comprehend, such as yourself.

I don't have a problem with most police officers. It's those game wardens that you have to watch out for. I may be sterotyping myself but I know a couple around here that think they created the universe. One is gone now after he ticketed that guy in Knox County. A game warden should know who the state representative is for the district he is working.

  Henry, same old bullshit out of you.  You will get your turn with a bad cop one of these days.  Then we see you cry.  

  That old statement of "oh I know a good cop"  I've seen some people who ate those words.  Just like I know a couple good Republicans.   But, they were from the old GOP not the new bunch of assholes.  The ole grouchy coot comes from being around to many asshole of your ilk.  OK.

  We know about that, had a friend who had a commercial apple orchard.  This one deer was eating all of his apples.  So he being one of the cruel inbreed hillbilly red necks, shot this deer.  It stopped the tearing down of fences and the damage to his apple crop and damage to his trees, they also eat trees.

  Some  Turned him in for shooting the deer.  Well, Barney Fife the game warden came on to his property and tried to arrest him.  Words were spoken and threat were made and he was told he had better check the laws before he tried to arrest a orchard owner who was armed.

  As the game warden left he said, that no one was going to talk to him that way and the was going to return with the sheriff and his ass was going to jail.  Guess what, he never returned.  Orchard owners have the right to protect their crops and do not have to train, pet or be nice to a deer.  Does every body like to eat a venison steak or some venison summer sausage.
