Are you saying the mayor should have pulled leather? Reminds me of the courtroom scene from Idiocracy.

We've been so divided and made to fear law enforcement
i would have to tend to agree with you! The people of this country forgot that the civil servants work for us, are paid by us, and answer to us! Where did we go wrong?
You mean the future is rednecks? Now I really have to move.

If you're ever traveling down the 10 to cal, DON'T stop for food or gas in Quartzite when it's filled with Winnebago Warriors hunting for crystals. Once your in town, you're trapped. Don't believe me? try it sometime.

Just this weekend, my brother and I were talking about the tinderbox this country was becoming. He doesn't typically listen to country music, but I do, and a song came on........I told him that I loved the song, but I never thought it would get any nationwide play, to my surprise the song went to #1 almost immediately and has stayed at the top of the charts nationwide! My brother listened to the song, and reminded me of a music history class that we both had, where it was proven that the popular music of an era is usually indicative of the upcoming social state. In other words, the music changes before the society changes. It has happened with prohibition, the great wars, the great depression, and the civil rights movement.

What really stands out to me is the actions of the people of the town. The lawfully elected mayor of that town gave a police officer of that town a lawful order to cease. This was not a life and death situation, nor were there persons in mortal danger. 1. why did not the mayor stand up in front of the officer and tell him he was to release the women> 2. why were there not every man and women in that room standing in front of the door demanding that the police obey the order of the mayor. A peaceful civil disobediance. How would it look to have to arrest almost half the town.

Funny how everyone cheers when an arizonan sheriff goes after illegal immigrants, but it is only a travesty when the police turn on their own people.
