i am a bit confused as to why it wasnt a Ranger however, being that is their juristicion (spelling)

thats scary i love camping out in the woods, being harrassed by police would really ruin it. I've already spent far too much time emptying my pockets for rude police officers in town do i really need to start empying me bag and explaining myself every time i go hiking?
Last time i stopped my camper van in a carpark the police came and woke me up, just checking what was happening - we WERE sleeping, no i'm not part of green peace or PETA although yes i do have long hair, er- last night we went for a quiet walk by the river and chatted, no we don't have a tv in the van, oh i didn't realize there was a big football match last night, i suppose yes it is strange two english people weren't watching it - we do have some tea if that helps. No sorry i'm not trying to be sarcastic, i really do like tea. sorry i know you're just doing your job and thanks for doing your best to crack down on the thought criminals who think about things beside sport. oh, ok yes i suppose you can search me and run a check on me. -True story.
I still haven't decided who is to blame for the state of the police, or should i say 'police state' but it seems to be getting more and more crazy every day.
