Tippecanoe County Annex, 111 N. 4th Street, Lafayette

[Leadeye]

Who makes the decision about how many metal detectors to buy?

Always follow the money

 

[GodFearinGunTotin]

Just a ramdom thought....
"They have six ways from Sunday to get back at you". Just a rumor spread by some senator somewhere. Ostensibly not about a lawyer in Laffytown, but....

The process is the punishment.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

APRA requests coming back. Getting background done before any litigation.

Apparently County paid $28.5K for the Rapiscan. It was $1,200 to ship (not a surprise). I'll try to post the invoices once Lindsey is done with her stack.

Commissioner called me this morning while I was in Clinton Co. Let's hope the return call in productive.

Colunty Commissioners, likely the worst job in Indiana politics. Just brutal and thankless.

Wow. I would have guessed more money than that. In world where the .gov pays $500 for a claw hammer, this Rapiscan seems frugal. Although there could be a maintenance fee that far exceeds the initial cost. A machine that isn't needed, stationed in a place it isn't required, and everyone involved in procurement and application of the machine thinks it's OK. Bestest and brightestest.

Go for it Kirk! But beware, bureaucrats at work! LOL!

I think work is too strong of a word.

"Bureaucrats may be present" might be better used here...

 

[1nderbeard]

Godspeed in going after the bureaucracy in all its forms.

The people are now in service to the government, and have been for some time. Anybody calling him or herself a 'public servant' these days deserves a swift kick to the backside. "Don't **** down my back and tell my it's raining."

Let's talk and reason first.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

Friendly conversation with Commissioner Brown this morning. He wanted letter County Attorney sent me in 2017.

Friendly but I was insistent that the metal detector has to go. Made my position known but no climbing on desks (I only climb on desks for the City of Lafayette).

 

[BigMoose]

They have made false reports about me. The Chief of Police tried to run me off the road.

*shrug*

Death is a certainty. Shame of living like a slave is optional.

If only they knew all they had to do is distract you with various German firearms, instead of the above illegal actions.

I don't discriminate. All flags are welcome.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

Spoke with a Commissioner at length on Friday.

Related my concern and the letter from the County Attorney conceding the fact that people can carry in 111 North 4th Street.

Related my demand that the metal detector comes out, immediately. Give them until next Commissioners' Meeting to act on their own before I go skipping off to court.

 

[Alamo]

Give them until next Commissioners' Meeting ...

at which they’ll vote to put a courtroom in that building.

 

[Mgderf]

at which they’ll vote to put a courtroom in that building.

Or a classroom...





...to school attorney's?

 

[Creedmoor]

Yep, Like Anderson. You get disarmed just to pay ones property taxes.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

They'll need a act of the General Assembly to create Tippecanoe Superior Court VIII.

Staffing a courtroom is a giant expense as a stalking horse/scarecrow. They can't swing it.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

Or a classroom...

Well, that would keep the cops out.

 

[BiscuitsandGravy]

Are the Commissioners meetings streamed live? Asking for a.

 

[Frank_N_Stein]

Well, that would keep the cops out.

I lol'd.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

I lol'd.

Feeling spicy, sorry.
