DEA officer stops at a ranch in Texas , and talks with an old rancher. He tells the rancher, "I need to inspect your ranch for illegally grown drugs." The rancher says, "Okay , but don't go in that field over there," as he points out the location. The DEA officer verbally explodes saying, " Mister, I have the authority of the Federal Government with me." Reaching into his rear pants pocket, he removes his badge and proudly displays it to the rancher. "See this badge? This badge means I am allowed to go wherever I wish.... On any land. No questions asked or answers given. Have I made myself clear? Do you understand? " The rancher nods politely, apologizes, and goes about his chores. A short time later, the old rancher hears loud screams and sees the DEA officer running for his life chased by the rancher's big Santa Gertrudis bull...... With every step the bull is gaining ground on the officer, and it seems likely that he'll get gored before he reaches safety. The officer is clearly terrified. The rancher throws down his tools, runs to the fence and yells at the top of his lungs..... " Your badge. Show him your BADGE ! "
RE: attacked Walk down North Pittsburgh St. in Connellsville or North Gallatan AVE. in Uniontown at night and they might be picking you up in a bag.
I would simply suggest, as I do to my kids, stay in the house at night. It is tough on the streets. This is a time in our lives where people are desprate to do what it takes to survive. I dont have a problem myself as I have developed a lot of street wisdom over the years.
RE: attacked I currently live in Pittsburgh now and I say I much rather walk down the streets in fayette county then here in the burgh you have to watch your back everywhere you go. And everyday there is a another murder. In the apartment complex I live in an innocent mailman was shot for being at the wrong place at the wrong time. So as far as people saying Fayette horrible walk downtown or on the northside at night for a week adn then walk a street fayette county for a week then see which one you get attacked on first.

Pointless chatter To fear the outcome of your actions is tantamount to distrusting your own self. To distrust your own self, does rob all others of your wisdom. To rob the community, be it through fear or greed, is a crime to our civilization. Once you go beyond the fear, passed envy and be responsible for the events in your life, you will see fear charged you far more then failure ever could.

RE: Interesting I think it is a shame that anyone would go to any extreme to hurt anyone especially a priest. I hear rumors on why but i think if someone has a problem they should go right to him.. God i dont want to piss some one off . I may get beat to death.. Such a shame.. Why cant people be nice and get along.Life is too short to be mean and miserable. God knows we all have bad days and dont like things but IMO not an excuse to hurt someone. Hey and someone our hormones get the best of us.. We are all human..
Your post is interesting while only teasing with the part about "the rumors"; how about sharing what the rumors are? Thank you.
RE: Interesting Treated and released from a local hospital.

RE: Interesting Just saw it on KDKA, live from the Ville. When they mentioned that the Ville police were keeping tight lipped on it, all I thought of were those episodes from the Keystone Kops. lol
Interesting What is channels 2,4, and 11 doing in by City Auto?

RE: Anchor Hocking ...Sold for 250,000... As always, it's interesting to read and absorb your insights, CWR. I hope others do as well. Thank you.
Thank you AJ, I think that is all I can want for from my posts, a spark. I want for them to hang in the air like a note hangs for a brief minute, to be absorbed, then stored away, even better, forgotten. ….This is the greatest reward. My thoughts may not be correct or realistic to some , but that leaves more room for the few. And I don’t know about you but I like my personal space:)
RE: Anchor Hocking ...Sold for 250,000... I'm an idiot for stating a fact that very few people save their own life by owning a gun? More people die due to accidents with guns in the home than those who don't own a gun. Police officers die while they are armed. You just want to find a reason to own a gun. Two 10 year olds were playing with a gun last week and one got shot, just one example. The right to bear arms gives some people the idea that they also have the right to kill. Sorry, I don't agree with your opinion. But you are entitled to your opinion as I am mine and I don't think I'm an idiot for having that opinion.
I'm an idiot for stating a fact that very few people save their own life by owning a gun?:... No I don't think you are a idiot , just misinformed . You need to do some research on this subject . The right to bear arms gives some people the idea that they also have the right to kill.:... Who told you that ??? or is that just your OPINION ???? .
RE: Anchor Hocking ...Sold for 250,000... “Why can't you stick with one topic.” The topic was Anchor.
You know its takes less energy to pity, much less then it does to hone the tongue , because a sharp tongue turns on its owner, sympathy and empathy builds your character.
It is interesting though, how we do not care about the subject, just the fight. This plant, Anchor, will be gone , replaced and we will be none the better, but maybe worse. The Government is lost in-on its self, Wars at the doors in every nation of the world, education waning, social unrest. And we fight about whose a Republican and whose a Democrat and who wants to be independent of the main parties. We really hate those who relate to no parties. We can’t find our own identity, be we deny others their own thoughts. We have little tolerance of others, but we want respect.
You will not prove a problems equation with incorrect methods, no matter how you write it out. You can’t make your thoughts better by making another’s worse. Idiot no, frustrated , I bet. Again, I find this very interesting.
As always, it's interesting to read and absorb your insights, CWR. I hope others do as well. Thank you.

Where did you find these "facts?". From the liberal gun ban talking points like CNN msnbc moveon.org etc. Just putting something on the internet doesn't make it a fact. You need proof. I can post several articles reporting people have saved their lives or property with firearms. There are hundreds if not thousands every day in the USA but a small percentage of accidents. More people are killed in car accidents than gun accidents daily and there are more guns in this country than cars. The car/gun statement is a fact and can be found on the center for disease control website as well as others. It is a proven fact that crime increases when guns are banned that is why Canada is repealing their ban/licensing law
