Regarding the 11:30 raid with hands on gun holsters, remember this is an urban area and the rangers are
probably most accustomed to dealing with drunken teenagers on Friday nights.

I have to emphasize:  People in authority have no such excuses.  If they rely on excuses, they shouldn't be allowed to carry weapons.  Lives are at stake.   Anyone who might have the least problem distinguishing a bunch of drunken teenagers from a camp full of sleeping endurance riders is not responsible enough to be wearing a badge and a gun. 

Truly it is not easy being a cop.  But the job is voluntary.  Lif
