Are we not avoiding the real issues and discussions? In an era where drugs are killing our youth, making our streets unsafe, and increasing crime statistics, we are having a discussion about the image of Sheriff's Grinnell addressing drug dealers. He was flanked by 2 officers with faces covered, one would assume for their safety, and the headline is that it looked like an ISIS video. That is simply wrong.
We have a big opioid epidemic and our response to an aggressive sheriff is criticism for a video. How about being grateful? Grateful for his tough position, grateful for his protection, grateful for him and his department doing their job.
We have become a nitpicking, finger pointing populace that looks for any little thing to label politically incorrect. We are a glass half empty or half full people? Let's try being a "glass half full" country for awhile. We might learn that it works a whole lot better.
