Nice little episode today at the local PD station

[steve666]

You're lucky. Here in Indianapolis we have 24/7 police... it's just that they are drunk and doing hit and runs while on duty.

If you are an NRA member you have firearm's insurance! Remember that.

[Bawanna]

Not much though. Isn't it 2500 bucks max unless you pay for more coverage?

Probably enough to replace the average carry tools. For addicts it would come up a bit short.

[HDoc]

You're lucky to get one day per week. Home#2 is in unincorporated Palm Beach and the local PD wants nothing to do with me so I need to use the Sheriff's office which wants me to drive five or six towns up to West Palm HQ which insists that the local branch is were I need to go which still insists I need to go to HQ. YAAAHHH.......
I DREAD getting a driver's license next year.

You seem to have all the fun . . . or is that just a Florida thing?

No, its me. I refuse to be a roll over victim, I refuse to be complacent in any affairs, I refuse to be part of the "Sheeple" of society.

I admire your spirit. Seriously, I do. Me, I'm a little old and tired . . .

MO_Soldier, I go to usaa.com under accounts and the insurance section, Valuable Personal Property, and there you can choose Coverages and Item Details. Under Item Descriptions I can choose the "read more" at the end of the more lengthy descriptions for each of those until all of the descriptions are shown. Then I can print it or copy and paste into a Word document.

You can also update that whenever you want to add or delete guns, accessories, or change values. This may change the cost of your policy, but that's to be expected, and adding one gun and accessories of $500 to $700 or so just adds about $10 to the policy. You can choose Update My Policy from the right side of the page under I Want To... after going to the Valuable Personal Property page.

I hope this is helpful.

So... today, July 4th, is a Wednesday. The reports should be ready... except, its also a holiday.

So the venerable Boynton Beach Florida Police Department will have a TWO WEEK hiatus in citizen service.

They're doing it on purpose. Its a manufactured crisis. The claim is they don't have the money to stay open. Except, the people there are working full time anyway... they just have the doors closed. The purpose it to force the appearance of crisis, thereby alarming the citizenry, and serving to support the wants of the PD union to have the PD be taken over by the Palm Beach County Sheriff Office, which offers better pay, and benefits, as well as a chance at county wide mobility for the officers.

So, they stay close for two frikkin weeks, to help themselves with their union organized career goals, and we just sit on our collective asses, wait, and bear with the nonsense.

I'm not against the joining up and takeover by PBSO, but there is no need to BS the public, no need to squeeze service, no need to flatly lie about the situation. "Cutbacks" are total baloney - you can look in the damn windows and see the place is full. The lights are on. Look in the doors, through the lobby to the office area (though the inner lobby glass) and there is the normal scurry of activity.... its just that nobody "checks" and those who must interact with the PD must live with current arrangements, and hopefully ***** about it to everyone and cite "the cutbacks" as good reason to vote for merging the PD into the PBSO.

And if you don't think I'm the last angry man.... you have thought unwisely.

Look, before I fled North to avoid 95 degree weather and 90 % humidity this year, Boynton's Mayor was arrested, it's police chief was embroiled in some sort of crud, it's officer of the year had fled the country as a wanted man and various other city officials were in a state of "I didn't know it was unethical". They were shocked, shocked I tell you that West Boynton didn't want to be annexed. Other than the Boynton Diner, I find excuses not to head to Boynton proper.

Actually, the Boynton Diner is not bad! I once did the Heimlich on a wheelchair bound old lady there... sent a homefry clear across the dining room (she was at the first table by the door... where the counter is at the right... she was on the left). Landed in the far diagonal corner right on a guys plate! Folks cheered, but I said "check please" handed 'em to much money for breakfast, and bolted. Wanted no part of the cops and paramedics on the way....

All that said, I prefer DJ's, over on Boynton Beach Blvd. Been goin' there since the kids were... well... KIDS!
