Funny how so much is made about police presence in Puna protecting life and property versus garden raids and this thread has fallen back to page 5. Is it apathy or just that we realize the good ol' boy club is what it is? And we settle for that? After having read through the tread once again I don't have a clear count on how many beat police we have. I can tell you where two or three hang out almost always - Keaau - three yesterday morning as I went by all using their big boy toys (laser speed guns) catching those that bring easy revenue (you know doing that serve and protect stuff). Only here 6 days when I had the pleasure of meeting the elite force -seems 65 mph in a 45 mph is NOT ok, though I was not the lead vehicle in the parade but an easy $177.00 fine. And the fine gentleman (they guy with the badge and gun) greeted me after we pulled over with "jesus christ, why were you speeding, jesus christ!"...someone I have never been mistake for before, but guess he saw some similarity or what he just intentionally offending me?
Yeah I was wrong, mea copa, e kala mai. Now when I travel the road cruise control on 44 mph without exception every vehicle on the same path "speed" on by giving me stink eye. I just don't have another spare $177.00 folks. Driving wit aloha!
Appologies if off thread here.
