A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.

hmmm..... I've talked my way out of several tickets... but running down a hit and run driver and holding him ain't one of them. I have said:

"Do you know why I've stopped you?"
"No officer, I didn't know you had to do 115 just to catch up to me". (seriously)

"Do you know why I've stopped you?"
"Yessir, you realized that I am carrying 3 dozen donuts and 2 dozen bearclaws". (really happened, I was bringing the breakfast to a work party at the phone company) I opened the boxes to show him.

"Do you know why I've stopped you?"
Yessir, You noticed my clergy tags on the back of my car and would like a blessing before you continue your day".

First one cost me a 100 dollar fine and a 400 dollar lawyer bill in 1974.
Second and third one got me verbal warnings and a smile from a trooper.

Had this happen, really. Was working on interstate and a guy not speeding just didn't move over while I was changing a tire. My buddy stopped him and held him for like 5 minutes so I could talk to him. I go there and asked do you know why you were stopped, he said you must need a blessing today. He was a priest. It was , couldn't even chew him out..just politely asked him to pay attention and carry on.
