    I wish he would have ran for sheriff again. Bill Beam and his crew on the hall need to go.


    Lisa that was the most beautiful thing I have ever read.I miss those I have lost more this time of year.Thank you for sharing.It really helps and is so touching.Bless you Cindy.


    If they (the illegal criminal intruders as I call them) live in fear, go into hiding, don't go to work, or keep their children out of school then they have no one else to blame but THEMSELVES. They broke the laws of this country and deserve what ever punishment is due to them. If they resist or obstruct then let then suffer the consequences that come with preventing a member of any law enforcement group from DOING THEIR JOB. The one distinctive fact that people fail to remember is this ......the very instant they set foot on American soil without following proper procedures with correct documentation, they are considered to be A CRIMINAL, just like YOU or I would be if we performed the same act in a foreign land. Let them be welcomed in the proper way ......come to America the correct way .....the way millions have done before you. Seek your dreams and enjoy the freedoms of America but do it as a responsible human, not a CRIMINAL. In the past 35 years, foreign born populations have grown tenfold in this state. Contained in this number are 630,000 non-citizens with 435,000 of them being undocumented. These are numbers from the NC Office of State Budget and Management and WE HAVE A PROBLEM OF ENFORCEMENT in this state and I consider it to be a failure by the Immigration Services of this state, whoever it may be. It needs to be IMMEDIATELY CORRECTED AND THAT IS WHY WE SEE THE FEDERAL AGENCIES ON OUR SOIL TODAY. I THANK THEM FOR STEPPING INTO OUR MESS AND THE JOBS THEY ARE DOING.


        Thanks Barney. I always appreciate you reading my work and sharing your perspective. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours. Eric


    Wow LCSO considers this worthy of a press release. The guy on the fourwheeler probably woke a deputy up from his nap in a church parking lot.
