The Mounties' name reflects its history. The organization is the

calvary forebears, but I doubt they go into battle on horseback.
Neither
do the Mounties, although I bet the group still has horses.
I love those scarlet jackets. I was in the USAF and the uniforms were
ugly.
These local guys have even nicer outfits.

Pffhhhtt...how the hell can you fight in dresses?

Didn't they lose?


We are about to have a federal police force right here in the United
States of America. "Why do we need a federal police force after all
these years?", you ask. That's the million dollar question.

In my county, they want to raise property taxes 25%, in part to provide
county wide police protection, even in the cities which provide their
own police force. I think the county commissioners may have a recall
vote on their hands.
