There is a 6 month waiting list to apply at the Sherriff's Dept. in Lincoln County OR. Another 3 or so to get it.

Interesting. We really are sheep aren't we? If the citizens of LA or AL truly believed in segregation seems to me the Marshals would have been waaay outnumbered. There are a lot of voices, here and elsewhere, that claim they would fight to the death but how many really would? Would you...
