Thursday a Gilbert, Arizona police officer was murdered during a routine traffic stop, a crime that precipitated a violent 50 mile chase up a winding two lane mountain road that ended in a gunfight that can best be described as something out of a Hollywood movie. Police Lieutenant Eric Shuhandler was a father of two, [...]
I love writing this blog, but sometimes I feel like a tennis ball bouncing back and forth from one side of the net to the other. A few days ago I was labeled a Liberal by somebody who didn’t like my blog Can He Walk On Water Too, and in response to the blog post [...]
