6. And that makes perfect sense.

She could be saying "whatever you want to call the police in for, let us do it, we're already here."

We just don't know if she was saying "let me bust some heads," and we never will.

I lived in Colorado Springs for 9 months. The cops there are ABSOLUTELY brown shirts. There's just an aura coming off of them that's unmistakable, like when you drive down a road after someone's hit a skunk.

The members of the Sheriff's department HERE take care of business, but there's not a toxic male "I HAVE A GUN" feeling coming from them.

It's like anything else in life, like people who get married but should never have kids, because they're not equipped to raise them.

Some people should not be cops, but then again, I look at Colorado Springs and see the consistency of the mindset and have to wonder if the powers that be are intentionally hiring officers who get off on intimidating people.
