I was thinking the same thing.

but it is disturbing - the thought of this secret police business... not bolero.

This is insane !!! The Feds need to step in and shut this down.

You drive around here in a car that says Police Dept on it and your not.

The Sheriff's Dept will drag you out of it under arrest and impound the vehicle.

Psst. Bolero is Latin. Not Arabian.

But hey, let's not let facts interfere with the entertainment value of your post.

All right all right yea its Bolero but for some reason I always associate it with Lawence of Arabia but yea sure I'm just paranoid.

What could be more American then a private police force? Private, hello? I thought Americans dig all that privatization stuff.

The state should shut it down, NOT the FEDS. I have never believed the Feds should do anything more than protect the national border and deliver the mail. I question their ability to do either.

Fine whatever. Some REAL legal agency needs to step in fast before this gets carried away.

We dig private stuff... unless it is the privatization of a public sector.

road building, military, police force etc.

government is to be held accountable for these things, not some random private individual.

P.S. The people are the legal authority. That is what liberty is all about.

Yea well, we've been privatizing like hell here in Finland lately, seems like it's all been a big mess. Hasn't been the success that the conservative coalition party of Finland touted it would be.
