A.) Seat belts saves lives, by enforcing seat belt law and preventing serious injury accidents their actually keeping insurance rates down, saving money for millions of people.
B.) If you have such little respect, trust and confidence in your local police department that you think they sit in the office 24 hours a day, 7 days a week than you need to go to your selectmen and explain this because if this is true than it would be one of the states largest law enforcement scandals in Maine, however its not true at all is it.
C.) The D&D jokes get vvveeerrryyy old after a while, seriously when was the last time you saw a cop with a donut in hand, perhaps you think that because he is holding a D&D coffee that he has automatically eaten donuts too? Trust me, you have eaten more donuts this week than most police officers have.
D.) Seat Belt tickets are 70 bucks, not 250
Why is it when someone writes an editorial about police work, everyone and their cousin jumps on the police as lazy, donut eating goofs who do nothing to serve the public? Everyone here speaks with absolute certainty but I'm guessing you actually have no idea what goes on with one of these details and truth be told you probably don't care as long as your not the one getting ticketed. If you have departments in your town that act the way you describe, I'm extremely sorry for you are being short changed. Well, I guess Ill see if I can get up out of this chair and finish my donut in time to get to your complaint next time you call.

My God! Who cares about this BS. Arguing about a muslim community center in New York City? Really? How about arguing about our burning economy, or, oh I don't know, something a little more pressing and important to our country. People need to grow up and stop fighting over all of this measly garbage. I tell you what, when we fix everything els thats wrong with this country then we can re-visit this issue and see if it's as important as we all once thought.

The unfortunate truth is that on a busy day not every single call can be attended to. Just because a police cruiser does not have its lights and siren activated does not mean its not on its way to a call, and no offense but most any other call a police officer gets is going to trump a call where an officer has to tail a dog down the block or get out and confront it. Do we know if an ACO was called or was not called? No. Do we know what that officer was doing or where he was going? No. There are a lot of factors that could have contributed to the officer not stopping and confronting just one more stray dog in Lewiston. Oh and for the future, rather than slam on your breaks or swerve around a cat or dog that's in the roadway, just run it over. The life of a dog or cat is not worth a human injury or death. Food for thought.

How does wind and air hurt
How does wind and air hurt humans? Or is it the possibility of a turbine falling over onto someone? I don't quite understand.
