It dosnt say "Respond, Investigate, Arrest" on the side of marked units, where's the disconnect?

By today do you mean 2005 or 1981?

What I was thinking. Old news, but I guess that's why it says reaffirming.

OK, but what Supreme Court ruling was today that reaffirms that? I don't see it in a search.

Somebody on Facebook dredged this up. Old news.

My dad, uncles, and a bunch of old guys at deer camp always told me this while I was growing up. I believe it to be more relevant now than ever before. Old article Yes, Still the truth Yes.

TRUTH. NEVER gets old.

But the "protect & serve" thing......you're preaching to the choir.

The basis for this decision was a "they didn't show up in time" lawsuit. It basically says that police agencies have an obligation to protect society at large, but there is not a cop on every corner and they can't be held liable because one person did not get immediate service. I really think this decision should further enforce the right to bear arms.

I used to have a girlfriend that was a Deputy, she wasn't much at protecting but she was really good a serving.
