In the face of L.A. cops being fired for refusing Rona jabs, SDGov Kristi Noem says:
“To LA County law enforcement officers facing potential firing: In South Dakota, you will not be fired for making personal health decisions. We respect law enforcement and everything you do to defend our freedoms. We would love to have you come join us.”
That’s all well and good, Governor, and let’s hope some of them take up your offer and come on up to the Mount Rushmore State.
But please make a few ground rules clear before you send them out to police your citizens, especially in terms of the Second Amendment. While cops generally are quite conservative, I’m not so sure about California cops, because they’ve been enforcing some pretty shitty un-Constitutional anti-gun laws in the Golden Shower State and they’ll probably need a training course in SD gun laws to remind them of the “shall not be infringed” stuff. They’ll also need to become free of the fear of seeing citizens carrying guns openly, never mind concealed.
Just a thought.
Bad idea! People from LA can’t drive in rain, much less snow that sits on the roads for 4-6 months a year in South Dakota.
Enroll them in a proper high-performance driving school.
If they’re driving to SD from SoCal, they can go by way of Chandler AZ, and partake of a course at the ex-Bondurant Driving School, now the Radford Racing School, where they teach driving in very slippery road conditions.
It was disappointing when Bondurant left Sears Point Raceway in Sonoma, CA. My home track then, sigh…
