Tales from the COP side.

Traffic court is usually a snoozer. It always manages to land on my day off and after a midnight shift. I trudge in half asleep and ready to just commit suicide by contempt but there are those gems that make chronic sleep deprivation worth while…Defenses that didn’t seem...

Where's your crown King nothing?

Have become a nation of debtor kings sitting proudly upon our throne of affectations? I would be inclined to answer in the affirmative and the evidence tends to support the assertion. We have become little more than the sum total of our possessions; blithely mortgaging our...

We suffer from battered nation syndrome.

Obama was touted as a new kind of politician, the defender of the down trodden, the bringer of hope and change, the savior of us all. A new kind of politician ? It seems now that the shine has worn off and veneer has been stripped away even his most ardent supporters are...
