[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by grayfox1119</i> <br /><br />As you can see, each time a major "hostile event" takes place anywhere, the authorities can take things to the extreme. After 9/11, the local authorities that cruise around the local reservoirs that are in our town but belong to the city of Worcester, Ma, got overly protective, in fact, <font color="red">*** </font id="red">right foolish. We have some dirt roads that are closed off to cars around one particular beautiful reservoir because teenagers were making messes every year. But, we like to take walks in the Fall on these roads. Well, these "reservoir police" were trying to stop people, ( Hey I'm retired, and my wife an I certainly don't look like terrorists) from just walking. I told them that this is "our" town that their reservoir was located on, I will <font color="red">*** [/red<font color="red">]well </font id="red">walk on the roads in my retired years if I [red]*** well </font id="red">please. We later took the matter up with our town Selectmen who were equally pissed, and told the city police to "lighten up". <br /> It only shows that it is not only the RR's that get nasty at times, it is over zealous officials who have a lack of common sense. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Yep! that approach should do it! [:)] <br />Don't think I've seen so many *** in one post here before... <br />What are the old folks of today coming to? <br /> <br />Would I be right in thinking that anything more than one teenager is a threatening group that should be maced by the police? <br /> <br />Otherwise... isn't the discussion (excluding the porcine comment) remarkably civilised? <br /> <br />Have a nice day [8D][8D][8D][8D]
