More wacky news!

Dear you . . .

Am I hearing one of this week's news bits correctly?  Does Oklahoma actually ARM volunteer "deputies"?  This cannot be true, says my inner denial-of-all-things-psycho-in-America voice.  But it is.

Apparently, a drug related thing was goin' down in Oklahoma and one of these random volunteers shot and killed a suspect.  It was an accident.  He thought he was pulling the trigger of a taser.  But he pulled the trigger of a GUN.

What is more horrifying?
1.  The fact that this dude doesn't know the difference between a taser and a gun.
2.  The fact that Oklahoma even has a deputy reservists (volunteer cops) program.
3.  The fact that Oklahoma is part of the United States.

Born in Alabama and residing in Florida, states that pretty much always win the CRAZY contest, it is good see another state really going for the title.

NOTE:  I know the man who did this is very old and certainly not malicious, but really?   Why on earth was he even allowed to be in this position?  Sad sad sad.

So, April showers are here and all is well in my world.   For now . . .
Love,
Joyce
