  2. Ain’t it funny how everyone can “get out” and get everything else they want/need in life, but that pesky little voter ID is unobtainable. Anyone who believes such nonsense is a fool.

  3. Using quotes from an article YOU posted is not denial. It's proof you are picking and choosing to make a mute point and troll. Your sophomoric posts and childish insults are actually amusing to the 95% who only read your poorly written diatribes. Each time you get backed in a corner you move on to another post.

  4. Yes professional courtesy does still exist however breaks still exist across the board. I stopped a guy one night going 85 miles an hour in a 35 mile an hour zone on a motorcycle about 2 AM. There was no one in the vicinity and he quickly pulled over. I told him to slow down and he almost passed out. If I am going to give a person I don’t know a break for 50 miles an hour over the speed limit, why would I give another police officer a citation for going 15 miles an hour over? I stopped at car one night speeding and then it went through a red light at about 30 miles an hour. By the time I pull the car over a few blocks away, it was pulling into the back of the hospital. It was a doctor on the way to an emergency so she was naturally in a hurry. The law on speeding actually allows doctors going to an emergency the ability to speed as if an emergency vehicle without receiving a citation just as it does for police officers. It does not give them the authority to run red lights and especially at 30 miles an hour. I did not write her a citation out of professional courtesy. It was early in the morning and there was no traffic and she could see that it was clear. Should I have written her a citation? I am sure there are people that are angry that I allowed her to go with a warning while they might have received a citation in the same situation. With discretion, that’s just the way it is. Like in your situation, I and most other officers simply handle the problem at the same if given the chance. For every person arrested or given a citation they are probably 15 others that were given a break.

  15. Some or most of it is but it has to be obtained through another channel. Using the FBI/police computer is a crime. When I used to work for Lamar Port Arthur, they would want me to run the license plate of people who would receive citations for parking on the campus. I could not provide it. They were a government agency since they were in public school and they could go down to the Jefferson County tax office and requested and would receive it for free through them.

  17. I started to post my response but I will use your post as a nexus and yes you are probably correct, it sure did not help him. Money laundering is a crime. Money laundering under Texas law is to possess money with intent to commit a crime or were the proceeds from a crime. The man in the article was arrested for money laundering. He was not taken into custody for possession of money or the money was not seized for a civil forfeiture. To justify an arrest and a seizure of money for evidence the officers had to have probable cause which is under the 4A to the United States Constitution. Probable cause is a reasonable belief by a person of caution, who knows the facts that the officer knows at the time of the arrest or search, that will lead the person to believe that a crime it’s probably happening or has happened. So what do we know about this case going strictly by the article? Will these facts make a reasonable person believe that a crime has likely happened or about to happen? Probable cause is a looking at the totality of the circumstances and not any single item which in itself might be legal. 1. A traffic stop was made IH10. 2. The driver was from South Carolina so at least several hundred miles from home. 3. The article says the officer spoke with him and he gave indications that something was up. I’m going to speculate that he was overly nervous or simply gave an answer that made absolutely no sense. Either of the situations might not mean much alone however I can give inference that a crime has been committed. This is especially true if you’re caught in a lie. 4. Due to these indications a narcotics dog was brought to the scene. 5. The dog alerted on the vehicle meaning it is very likely there were drugs for in the vehicle or had recently been in the vehicle. 6. A search of the vehicle with probable cause let’s do the discovery of almost $1 million in cash. 7. A check of the man’s record shows that he has not only been arrested but been convicted for drug charges, possibly selling drugs. We do not know what the guy said that tipped the officers off that something was up but I’m sure it will be on camera. Also unlike the sidewalk lawyers on Facebook, a warrant is not needed to search a vehicle on the roadway. The United States Supreme Court has ruled that waiting for a warrant on the side of the road was unreasonable so a warrant was not needed for a vehicle. The 4A to the Constitution guarantees the right against “unreasonable” searches and seizures. They have ruled that is not unreasonable to search it vehicle without a warrant. A warrant might take two or more hours and it would be unreasonable to believe the suspect will still be sitting there waiting for the cop two hours later. So the officers very likely had probable cause to make the stop, the search and ultimately arrest the suspect. It was not a single fact that the guy had cash on him. Out of curiosity and honesty, with the seven things that I just listed, how many people believe this guy was just riding down the road with almost $1 million cash or if he had just made a drug transaction or was in route to a drug transaction?

    How Safe is the Vaccine ?

    Ain’t it funny how one of the biggest arguments in this country is whether or not a woman has the right to do with her body as she pleases, even to the point of murdering an unborn fetus, but let that same woman decide she doesn’t want to take a vaccine into her body, she gets fired? Oh the irony of the left. All you liberals out there…..you are the sorriest people to walk the face of the earth and I will do everything in my power to bring you down.

  39. They idea is okay, but the enforcement is horrible. Just a year or two after implementing measures to "speed up" the game, you are now gonna to make it drag on with these countless checks of foreign substances. That will greatly irritate those that claim that baseball's major problem with the current game is that it drones on for too long. Use of foreign substances on the baseball is as old as the hill. Heck, it helped Gaylord Perry to a Hall of Fame career. While the current crackdown might improve things, it is not gonna solve things such as lower batting average and increased strike outs. That will only happen when coaches, analytics guys, and, most of all, players, stop worrying about crap like "exit velocity" and "launch angle" and start worrying about putting the bat on the darned ball!

  40. Literally.... you disagreed with President Obama on healthcare...you're a racist. If you think our borders should be secured, you're a racist. It's the hand grenade that the left throws at anybody who disagrees with leftist philosophies in any way.... More black people in jail for murder? Racism. Black people own less real estate? Racism. White people score higher on a test? Racism. The word has been hijacked by people who don't even have a clue what it means.

  43. I'm a believer that the extra 6 weeks of practice a state team gets is worth something... Crosby makes my top 10. Idk about this year but next FBM should be the favorite to win state if they stay D2. Lovejoy seems ranked too high. Guess we will find out. Wonder how Texas High and Ennis bounce back. Region 4 probably comes down to Rouse and LH but I hope Tivy can make a run. Weird not seeing WF Rider in the top 10. How many does it say Aledo returns? I guess 5/5 but really we have a boatload of kids that played last season returning.

  46. Thought this was interesting, as he was one of my favorite presidents to read about, Teddy Roosevelt. Here’s a man that created the national park system, was a war hero, Congressional Medal of Honor recipient, chief of police in New York, governor of New York and they are removing his statue. What a country. [Hidden Content]
