So people should just read in the wink and nod that they weren't serious?

Locally, we just did a multi-year, detailed analysis of 911 calls, finding that a substantial majority of them did not require someone with a gun, and that virtually none of them that started out without that need escalated to need one. Unfortunately, I don't know more details than that because it hasn't gotten much press.

I've somehow fallen into the groove of watching Adam 12 reruns on MeTV 5-6 weekdays. There is a weird vibe to seeing network TV trying to process drug use and hippies and race in the early 70s and still make it fun to watch!
But the policing moments are also mostly boring things that Flower and I could probably handle- until the ones happen where flower and I would be running away like crazy. None of that shit is predictable I'm afraid.

Flower's experience was much more harrowing than mine. He was much closer to it.

ehh, maybe, but who has empathy for flower? He's a fucking GOD! I honestly worried for you those nights because of your posts.
