He'll change his fucking tune in a heartbeat. You watch. Who's going to say that and why? Every pig department recieves a mix of state, federal and local funding. The state and feds will lean on the pig department first. If that doesn't work, they'll threaten to cut state and federal funding to the whole town. City council will lay down the law to your beloved pig man of freedom, and like I said, he'll change his fucking tune in a heartbeat. It's all about the money. Nobody gives a fuck about your rights if it's going to cost them a dollar. |

The sheriff is the easiest elected official to enfluence and or change. DO IT. Call them. Support them. Replace them. It's either that or get use to living in a police state where you have no rights and have to worry about when Big Brother is going to arrest you for something that you thought you had a protected right to do. "God forbid we should ever be 20 years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, & always, well informed... If they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty... Let them take arms... What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. " - Thomas Jefferson in 1787 |

They don't work for anyone else. Their budgets are set by County Commissioner's and a city council has nothing to do with them. At all. As for funding, our Sheriff has about a $14 Million budget. Less thatn $30 thousand comes from the feds and the state stopped their only direct funding a couple of years ago. We are the chains that bind us |
