OR you do like OT and "quit".

YEP- I quit after 28 years of law enforcement- retired making more than I would if I kept working- and moved into bigger and better things....And apparently enough people respected my work enough to ask me to come back and help out- and be Judge for multiple counties and multiple city courts..
And as the old current Sheriff said to me today when I went into court for some arraignments "work some cowcountry justice"- which with the one case of a babyraper he was talking about I'd have loved to-- but we still have a rule of law in this country- that I put above all else...
The comedy of the whole situation is few of you even know what is happening in "the real world"-- or the 200+ years of precedent or history involving the laws on the books or constitutional requirements that have evolved during that time- and can't look at the Constitution past the rightwingernut crazies screaming about birth certificates and everyone should have a dozen guns issues... :roll:
So NOW come back and attack me personally some more since that seems to be what you get your JOLLIES out of... :roll:
