Something I read that was funny

I just read this on another forum I check out for duckhunting reports.I know season closed Sunday but this is to show what we in middle Tenn have for cops.Hope dont offend anyone.But to think these people protect us.

Idiots and decoys

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A friends granddad owns a pond in Smyrna. The one with all of the ducks on it... He put out 2 decoys a while back. They froze up here lately. The other day the Smyrna police came to his door saying it has been reporting there were 2 ducks frozen in the ice!!! It would have been funny if he went out there and shot the crap out of them decoys!!!!!!!!!!!! and said they will not suffer anymore...Smyrna police????????

Smyrna Police has to be 1 of the worst police forces in the nation. But hey if i was doing what they were doing making 12 to 15 bucks an hr i probably wouldnt be any better

That's not a whole lot of $$$ to risk life and limb daily.

I watched a gentlemen go outside of the building he worked in and eat his lunch by a small pond, he would take bread to the decoys eveyday for about two weeks. Someone finally explained to him why the ducks were not eating. I just did not have the heart.
As for the police, if someone is trying to hurt you or your family i doubt it will matter if they are duck experts. I say cut them some slack, a really smart person would not be willing to put his life on the line daily for a complete stranger.

Well I do cut some slack but they are normally the ones I know that are good and honest ones.Not the ones that are trigger happy and ignorant.I have seen one that comes around and patrols the ramp I use in LaVergne he is there daily no matter if there is boaters there or not patrolling the parking lot.I talk to him and thank him everytime I see him.But for one to see decoys on the pond like that and think they are real ducks please that will be the decoys I need to put out.I can tell alot of difference between and real duck and decoy heck my daughter can.

Oh would you cut some slack to a cop that committed a federal crime and kill way over his limit on woodducks because he thought he could get away with it since he was on private property.There was a Jackson cop that did that.I dont respect him one bit.

My sister lives in LaVergne and I sympathize with you. I have heard her stories too. But I guess like any profession there are bad apples everywhere.
As for the one in Jackson that killed all of the woodducks, I don't think you ever have to worry about him having a badge or gun again.

Nah and I am good we dont have to worry about him anymore.I seen the picture and it was just sickening that some people would do that to the ducks out there.I am a duck hunter and I only take my limit.Matter fact I got nervous this year about them closing the killing of canvasback ducks so I didnt hunt much at all this year cause I didnt want to kill something I wasnt suppose to.After I read what I posted I kinda sounded like a butthole and sorry for that.I need to watch what I say in the mornings when I am on here after working all night.

Don't worry about it crappietime. I think most people understand. It is hard to understand the context of what we say while typing on these hi tech things. You just don't get the tones and expressions when you speak face to face with someone. Hope yall have a good time sinking those crappie homes.
