My dad worked for Smith County Sheriff's Office for 32 years. The last 8 he was the Chief Deputy. Smith County is not that large and back in 1977 everyone knew everyone.
I was stopped by DPS for speeding doing 77 in 55. I had a 1972 3/4 ton truck. I felt a little entitlement since the Trooper knew my dad and me. NOPE! First ticket and all I heard for months from my dad was, "77 in 1977 would you like your keys back?"

The truck just kept on chugging along with no one behind the wheel. Fortunately, I lived in the country so I just went chugging through an open field. Glad I didn't do that in a populated area.carlson1 wrote:It was always my understanding the Government was supposed to make laws the keep you from hurting me and me from hurting you.
