    Arnold Schwarzenegger put the "own" back in "town sheriff."

    Ya know, aside from gratuitous product placement, I quite enjoyed that little time-waster. Typical popcorn film. Solid B.

    He didn't brandish a firearm at anyone based on their political persuasion.

    Yep. Great comparison

    Profiling small town cops as "you might be a redneck if.." as opposed to profiling black males in "stop and frisk" or "driving while black"....

    But I'm being cynical too.

    Most civil rights violations committed by police are in large cities.

    Hopefully the public has enough sense to vote out any of their council members who voted to let him keep his job.

    Yeah, now that his Branch Davidian Action Squad has shown their nuts, they're going to get BATFE-stomped.

    The guh-mint doesn't like competition in the Oppression of Citizens department. Which is good in this case.

    Mmm, if there is any red Kool-Aid being served at these functions, it would seem best to avoid drinking some.

    After all the back and forth talk, I would still say that I would feel safer in this guy's town than in down town Philly, Detroit, Oakland, and Camden.

    That couldn't have anything to do with it being a small town where not all that much happens, could it?

    The town is so small they had to suspend the guy instead of fire him because they don't have anyone else qualified enough to replace him. :D

    You're probably safest of all hanging out two towns over. You know, where nothing ever happens and there's not an obvious lunatic running the police department.

    I'll settle for the smaller unassuming town, where the sheriff is a likeable guy who is also the town's librarian.

    Has anyone read this update? I think we need some hard primary sources for what's going on in Gilberton because Kos is coming across a little paranoid

    If even a fraction of that is true, it's kind of like a bad 70s drive-in film brought to life.
