Ma'am, put down those assault-trifocals right now!!!

As you guys know, I live in Dallas.

One of the things with which we Dallas residents have to deal from time to time is the general intelligence - or, I should say, lack thereof - in an inner-city "suburb", if you will, called the Park Cities.  They're so named because of the names of the towns - Highland Park and University Park.  They're in the neighborhood of Skip-and-Muffy University (SMU), which should tell you something.

Anyway, I've had occasion to deal with the University Park traffic court system.  They're open for three-and-a-half hours every Wednesday night - and only  Wednesday night.  Should you want to deal with a speeding ticket ANY OTHER TIME...well, you are just fuckin' SOL, homes.

The point is, that the University Park legal system is, to put it mildly, highly anal-retentive.  And so, to read this story, is the one belonging to Highland Park...

Highland Park police follow orders to the letter.

When they found that 97-year-old Harriette "Dolly" Kelton had an outstanding warrant for failing to pay a traffic ticket, they handcuffed her, put her in the squad car and hauled her to jail.

That should give you all the evidence of asshattery you might need - but no, then these pricks had to try and defend themselves, whereby they further stuck their feet in their mouths - or would that be "heads up their asses"...?

Officers stopped Ms. Kelton, who has lived in Highland Park for at least 60 years, for having an expired inspection sticker and registration last week. When checking her name and license, they discovered an arrest warrant for failure to pay a prior ticket for no registration.

Oh, there's  a menace to society, right there!  Lock that damned miscreant up, deputies!!!  Hell, let's film the perp walk, why don't we?!?!?!

Drivers who don't have their license or have an outstanding warrant go to jail if they're stopped in Highland Park.  No exceptions.

No common sense, either.  Wonder if they used any pain-compliance techniques on her...?

"A warrant begins with the words 'you are hereby commanded to arrest,' " said Detective Randy Millican, Highland Park's public information officer.  "How do you decide who do you arrest and who you don't?  How about at age 90 but not at 91 and up?  How about between 17 and 20?

How about exercising some fucking horse sense for a change, you bureaucratic pissweasel???   Or is that too much to ask of a fuckin' brownshirt, huh?

"It's an order from a court to make an arrest, so discretion goes out the window," he said.

Ain't that the Gawd's™ truth?  The thing is, you have to have a degree to work in those police departments - and presumably, you need to be able to think  to obtain such a degree.

But apparently, not in Highland Park.

Ms. Kelton, a former teacher at The Hockaday School, was no different.  She was in police custody for about two hours before her attorney arrived and was released on her own recognizance.

"Our real beef with this is that no real judgment was displayed or actually carried out in this incident," said Dr. Phil Kelton Jr., one of Ms. Kelton's sons.  "There's absolutely no question that they had a right to do what they did.  My question is whether or not they should.

Absolutely not, Phil - but good Gawd™, don't expect the elitist snotnoses in the Park Cities to possess anything even remotely resembling judgement.   That's asking a bit too much of a power-tripping Nazi brownshirt cop with brown fecal matter where it should  be gray.

Stupid-assed fuckwits...

Now that's  more like it!

You can push the United States military only so far.

After that, it's time to tuck your ragheaded ass between your legs and kiss it goodbye.

Having been patient enough, we decided to raise our voice a little, sending a couple of warplanes to give the Islamoswine holed up in Fallujah a little love tap:

"We're going to continue to push the political track as far as it's going to take us. And if it doesn't take us far enough, we're prepared to use military means," Brig. Gen. Mark Kimmitt told ABC's "Good Morning America."

He stressed at a briefing that the cease-fire was continuing and that Marines were not taking offensive actions but were "in a series of defensive responses" to the insurgents.

Damn straight.  And the ragheads best take heed, too - lest we decide to stop being defensive  and get a little offensive.

You al-Sadr-loving pig-felchers in Fallujah honest-to-Allah don't know who the fuck you're messing with.

Don't make us have to show you.

Challenged by yet another punk

These chickenshit trolls are starting to get a little braver.

First it was Canadian GuyCanorkian Gay, daring me to come up to his moose hole in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan (while posting from Calgary, but I suppose that's another story).

Now, a pansy-ass ostensibly from San Diego, Californication who calls himself "Cosmo" has dared me to come out to what I suppose is his garage apartment out there so he can spew his shit to my face.

(That's the trouble with these cowards - always want to do things in their backyard, as if they think I'd be too scared to come see them.)

Anyhoo, the round-trip out to Padreville and back is $226.  Normally, it wouldn't really be that much of a problem - 'cept that there's this mujer  out in Miami who keeps demanding my attention, and the ring on my finger says I have to give it to her. (grin)

So, right now, I'm broke - which is where you Denizens come in.

As I said on this thread, I'll happily accept donations to finance a trip out there.

Send yer checks to me at Bent Tree Forest. (You should know the address by now - but if not, email me and I'll forward it to you.)

As I told Cosmo Chickenshit - I get the money, I go.  This bastard wants a piece of me, he gets one.
