    I bet so tired of speeches saying we must keep peace this will not be tolerated ect ect.Those are just words how about we see some powerful swift action done instead of talk talk talk.They need to listen to the other side and the other side needs to listen to the officials.But all I'm hearing is words and nothing gets done.Soon as all this settles it's back to business as usual till the next time then more talk.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again. When #### get ugly, the State Governors need to call in the their National Guard to handle this. There is not enough manpower in the State for local/state police to handle this without pulling needed resources from elsewhere in the state.

    Its a very unpopular opinion but I think thats what needs to be done, even though I know it won't ever happen because nobody's balls are big enough to do it.

    That's all I will say about it. Don't want to start a war here on TTR.

    The solution to this epidemic is prosecution of those who incite others to violence (Black Lives Matter, La Raza, New Black Panthers, KKK). These are all groups who have in the past incited violence against others.

    Do they know for sure this guy made the threats over the CB? It could have been a setup. Somebody saw the driver and spoke over their own CB giving this guy's location, kinda like what hackers do when they take over your computer from another country. The drugs they found on the guy, yeah, that wasn't planted? [sarcasm] I'm so sure the guy would talk crap on the CB knowing he had illegal drugs onboard just asking for a search [/sarcasm]

    He likely thought no one would pay much attention or he thought that the cops couldn't come see what's up. He was wrong. Criminals are stupid which is why they get caught.

    Do you believe they put a man on the moon? Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone shooter? At the Flying J someone actually performs a courtesy check on the men's and women's bathrooms?
