Likewise. Ditto....And a Viet Nam vet to boot....... And just to be clear, I didn't mean to imply that the veteran was "above the law". Had the drive been DWI or Reckless Operation, it would have been a different story. It just seems to be that the "Officer" apparently "had...

You might consider passing this info on to the newspaper or one of the "action reporters" for the TV stations. This is a real human interest story and to issue a citation for such a petty violation to a Vet, on July 4th is beyond comprenhension. Especially considering that he has the Purpl...

There was no way you could keep all other locations running smoothly when HQ was out of order. And out of order for a very extended period. That reasoning is not valid. If "they" had any concern about the chains' home base, they could have relocated HQ to another part of the state (just l...
