When you think of LE having a carbine in the vehicle, this is a good reason. He could have killed dozens of people with his evil, recklessness.

Suspect steals semi, hits several other vehicles, jumps from truck during police chase in Morgan County
Makes me wonder how many tires a set of stop sticks could take out on a semi. I would imagine that a low speed, out of control semi would be just about as dangerous. I don't imagine anyone has ever tried to PIT a semi.
This what happens when you listen to Kanye West and the beer in your Yeti gets warm.
I do it all the time when they are clogging up the passing lane on the highway. Think all this trucks were on their side on the 17th because of the wind? Nope, I was just having a bad day.Quote:

(Usually whining about the 3 hour drive (try 1-1.5hrs I have gps liars.) when they couldnt follow simple instructions on previous visits that were repeated to them multiple times.
I'll be out there tomorrow.
Huh, been out there a lot over tthe last 15 years, well holyoke anyway and usually everyone seems just fine. The jail does bring in some Interesting people I'd imagine. Glad no one was killed. I agree with having a need for a carbine in police cars.
I have a dollar that says it was one of those crazy Somalis.
Haj ya know that ?Quote:

A lot of drinking and doing drugs just for entertainment.
Last time I was in Sterling, I stopped in the Wal-Mart on the west side of town. What a freak show.....Quote:

Any particular reason, aside from just trying to get away from the crazies here?Quote:

The aquifers produce some extremely hard water.

Sorry, I had to laugh at the comments from the "The Free Democratic Workers Paradise and Utopia of Colorado" also known as the front range. From Blighton, er excuse me Brighton to the beautiful steel mill and workers commune of Pueblo, to the fracking wilds of Fort Collins. Don't forget the wonderful and great renewable five year plans from the all powerful Soviet that runs Boulder. Say it is so comrade. Go and ask your tedious questions on where to go shooting comrade. Go complain to the workers council how you are being mistreated by your government. Go comrade and be mediocre. Go comrade and imagine yourself in some other workers paradise.
The triangle of despair. Old men and boys who commute to dead end jobs, surrounded by people they loath, not able to afford better yet always afraid of worse.
It was just some transient named Dean Luedtke, age 29. A shithead from some shithole somewhere.
I was out there today and didn't see anything strange. I did have to clear leather on my carry piece on the way back though.
Affordable homes.Quote:

I did actually see a ground squirrel, as well as some a-hole antelope. If that wasn't a ground squirrel, I'm about to have a private prairie dog colony.
You forget about the jack rabbit?
I didn't have to defend myself from those jack rabbits.
That's an itty bitty one. Somewhere, I have a 6' skin I took as a teen.Quote:

Grew up in TX. They were plentiful.
My Grandmother was rather proficient with a shotgun. Grandparents were ranchers. I came across one at the back fence. Ran to the house, where she was making lunch. I was probably more gesturing than communicating. She wiped off her hands and walked toward the back door. On the way out, she picked up the shotgun (deer rifle behind the front door and shotgun behind the back). She made the rattler jump about 2' at 20 yards. Said "don't go over there for a few days" and went back to making lunch.
A couple of days later, I went out to see if it was still there. Yep, dead as a door nail.
I'm surprised it was still there a few days later.
So was I.
