Only In America – James S. Mortellaro
http://www.2ampd.net/Articles/Mortellaro/jm01.htm

“Only here. Where our Founding Fathers tried so hard to protect and defend
us from every conceivable danger to the Constitution, every conceivable
danger to our freedom and every conceivable hazard to our then unique way of
life. They failed.”

Democracy or Republic – Steve Riley
http://www.2ampd.net/Articles/Riley/sr01.htm

“There is a great deal of reference by the media and sadly, even by many of
our elected officials to “our democracy” or “this democracy” when referring
to our government. The Founding Fathers of our nation wisely established a
Republic, not a Democracy, and there are many important differences.”

Gun Control and Confiscation in New York State – James S. Mortellaro
http://www.2ampd.net/Articles/Mortellaro/jm02.htm

“Up until about 1997, those with any type of carry permit, had a carry
permit for life. Simple. No renewal, no requalifying … just the permit.
And for many, many years, there were so few problems with permit holders,
that there was no reason whatsoever, to change the laws regarding concealed
carry. This has not changed in the least. There is and was, no provocation
for government to have changed the system.”

“I read a depressing story on the Fox News web site today. Nothing new I
suppose, but this one made me think. You see, four firefighters are dead,
their names are: Tom L. Craven, Karen L. Fitzpatrick, Devin A Weaver,
Jessica L. Johnson. OK, what does this have to do with law enforcement
officers? The problem lies in the location from which the Endangered Species
Act was derived – the UN.”

New Police Mechanic: It was Bob’s, the new mechanic for the neighborhood
police department, first day on the job. The Sarge told him to fix the
flashers because they weren’t working. Try as he could he could not get the
flashers to work properly so he brought the patrol car to a local garage to
have it repaired. Later in the day the Sarge returns to pick up the cruiser
and asks Bob “Everything working okay with the car now?” “Yep! I had to
bring it into town though and was worried that the mechanic there might try
to rip me off.” “Well?” asked the Sarge. “I was so relieved when he told me
all I needed was $12 worth of blinker fluid. http://www.mikeyshouse.com

Out heartfelt sympathies to our brothers and sisters of the New Mexico State
Police. They are some of the very best State coppers around, and we know
they are devastated by this senseless loss.
