MadCow-Sounds like a very dangerous situation. I do not advocate violence and I doubt you do either. I do believe strongly in being able to defend yourself and others. It seems the best solution is to try to avoid a situation all together but that is not always an option. Thumbs up for your posts.
MadCow-people like you are why it is not a good idea for drivers to do their whole road rage thing. they will eventually run into the wrong person.
FullMTLjacket45-good post that should be read by all road ragers. not just this guy. There are people out there who will protect their families and themselves. People who do not simply wave weapons around to scare people. If some people are blocked in by traffic and they have some road rager get out of their car and approach screaming and acting as a threat, the road rager may get more than they bargained for. If I remember right there was an elderly couple who had a guy do the same thing to them twice. It's very dangerous for everyone. Stay in your car and chill out before something goes wrong.
According to the article he was arrested in May for assault and criminal mistreatment after the OSP investigation. Now he has been cleared but there is no information. It is possible once he was cleared, he and his attorney requested the records be sealed. (something any citizen can do in these circumstances) If that is the case, the court order would prevent the case from being released. Yamhill County (his employer) would have no more information than any other employer for any other citizen. The case was OSP's investigation. So either all of the News agencies got together and decided not to give us the details, or there is a legal reason they don't have access. Sorry it is not as entertaining as a cover up.
Looks like Iran has a border and enforces the laws regarding entry into their country.
anotherlefty-I totally agree. This guy is a perfect example. Even in Portland I do not think his career will survive. I do not wish this on anyone. Unfortunately it took this to bring his alcohol problem to light. He should consider himself lucky nobody was injured. It doesn't really matter now how well he did or did not do his job. The expectation to not drive drunk is simple considering the profession.
Having a law which enforcement depends on politics is not the answer. Either enforce it or change it. Having political enforcement only invites corruption.
Battalion does shorter deployments than regular Infantry units. Thumb up for pointing it out. Like you said, no cakewalk.
He was actually taken to the jail if the article is correct. Probably would not hold him due to population inside.
If it makes you feel any better, I have made corrections to my posts, only to see the corrections disappear when I pushed the "Submit Comment" button. Most of the time it is just me not proofreading.
