Enough Cop Tales

[Rocky Raab]

Guys and gals, I hate to post this, but I must.

I don't know if there's some kind of competition or it's just coincidence, but 11 of the 19 most recent posts this morning are news clippings about cops. Why they blossomed isn't important.

While this forum is called "Almost Anything Goes" the point of the board is hunting, shooting and the outdoors. Not police stories.

I don't want to anger or put off any member, but I'm going to have to ask that there be no more police news clippings.

Such news is important - but should best be posted on a police-oriented board. HuntChat isn't the place for it, nor is it the place for the latest in gastroenterology, astronomy or scrapbook techniques.

Okay?

I was probably over the line with my post on the Pledge of Allegiance thread too. I think it was relavent to the topic... but know, as always, that I will politely defer to your decision to pull it if need be.

Rocky,

You mean to tell me that you have been counting.

That just means there hasn't been enough other stuff going on in AAG. LOL

hey rocky

that reminds me. you refered to astronomy in your post.

a while back royinidaho had a scope that he built into a gizwicket and he won't tell us what it is. can you believe that rotten hound dog? as a moderator i would demand an immediate explanation from him if i were you. 1sttimehuntingal can't even get him to explain.:D

we need your immediate intervention here.;)

Im fine with that.

My partner at work is a retired Detective from West Palm. I hear more than enough "war storys" from him, 100+ times a day.

As a cop I live it and reading about it really does not interest me in the least.

I cant believe what I just have been reading here.....I come in from killin gators all night...and we have a little Woody's thing goin on....I personally like to hear everyones stories, some of the highest post counts here have nothing to do with hunting....its where we have all gotten to really know each other....I like the cop stories, I like Fabs law stories, I love to see pics of Lilreds's daughter, (which we need an update on)....so what he cuts and paste the stories.....some times they are thought provoking, sometimes not...just like the rest of us....and more than a few times we all have engaged in discussions from the BadOnes clips...what the heck is goin on here? Sounds like more than just cut and paste issues.....this is worrisome for me...

PS...my closest friends are cops and game wardens...its what they bring to the table...me personally ...its their world...those post dont bother me....in fact I find them facinating at times...

I like reading these stories from around the world we get here at HC...So many views..so many different places..information that supplies food for thought....some facts...some opinions....questions that can be answered by people that are experts in a subject....there are lots of places other than 'anything goes' that keep me up most of the night reading..if I don't like to read a post...I just move on to the next one of interest....I am probably older than most here and have noone making me open a post....that is why I bought a puter with an on and off button....lol...in fact I would rather listen to news on this station than on the one sided views of the tv media...I love HC because of the people here and I will belong untill I get kicked out for some dumb reason....I can't believe it started in 1969..did they have computers then?...that is the joined dates of some I see....ok
..so on a hunting subject to keep it 'normal'...got a 7pt yesterday morning...been not taking my bow with me because of the new to archery people I been taking out for proper ..lol..archery training....so since everyone was at work or school, I decided to fester into one of my old buck haunts...a place I use to take newbys and promice them a shot at a buck 6pt or bigger by 9am....In fact I even told my new son-in-law the spot so he could stop there after work since he passes it...but his rider don't hunt..after getting out of the truck and closing my tailgate, a deer took off...darn...already there...so I ventured onto my favorite tree only to have 2 doe walk past about 10yds away..nice..then I slept for a good hour...'is what old dogs do lots of when in woods'..when I opened my eyes he was standing not 15yds looking around..I watched him for a long time before I even picked up the bow..such a nice morning...peacefull..quiet..and the drag was only about 40yds to the truck..'cheeseburger'...I own 4 treestands and have never shot a deer out of one yet..yea the wife asks why I need them...I like to be eye to eye...ground level...makes it tougher..now I can spend saturday with my 2 new to blackpowder people..in fact, one is going to take home the new one I just bought...only they don't know it yet..lol.....enjoy the day all...see ya
