Dear Mr. Law Enforcement Agency:
Recently, you felt it necessary to raid a couple of local establishments. You raided these establishments not for running drugs, prostitutes, or even weapons. No, you stormed in, guns blazing, to break up a poker game. We're not talking about a big time, high stakes game either. No sir! You broke up a couple of $1/2 games. Huge stakes! Now that you have raided these games and padded your pockets with several thousand dollars that does not belong to you, I have a question. Why?
Why is it that I have to lock up everything I have because the pill poppers a couple houses down will steal anything that isn't bolted down? Why is it that when I drive through town, I see dealers peddling their wares out in the open. Sometimes the prostitutes will try to get in your vehicle and you have to push them back. Yet, my friends face persecution for playing a simple game? I won't even get into the aspect of the actual law enforcement officers I have personally played with in these games. Not the guys you sent... NO! The guys on your payroll that play willingly...those are the guys I played with.
Dear Mr. Law Enforcement Agency, why is it that you have the resources to have someone playing undercover in these games for 4 months, yet you don't have the resources to clean up our streets? You get on my television and complain that you don't have the resources to pay your employees overtime. You don't have the resources to make sure your officers are properly trained or equipped. Yet you have the resources to bankroll an officer and pay him to play poker with a bunch of decent people. Who cares, right? It's just taxpayer money.
Why is it that you squeeze every cent of tax that you possibly can out of business owners and civilians alike, then blatantly steal the rest? Why is it that a man that runs a certain establishment bring so much to a single town and you take and take and take what he brings into your town...yet you still feel the need to raid this establishment and take some more? Why is it that this same establishment has 5 video slot machines hooked up to the Governors office, yet they can't play a simple skilled game on the side? This establishment brings in tens of thousand, if not hundreds of thousands in tax money to the town and state, not to mention the revenue that is direct deposited into the Governors pocket through the slot machines. Once a month, he hosts an event that brings people from several states to this establishment. As a result, the neighboring businesses also flourish...which means the law enforcement agencies and other government agencies flourish with the additional tax revenue. This establishment does that much for you, yet you still feel the need to raid it and steal even more?
Mr. Law Enforcement Agency, why is it that you must call everyone's phone number on that cell phone? Are you trying to intimidate me? If so, it's not working. In fact, I would love to hear from you. I have a lot of questions I'd like answered. Also, I'd love to blog the transcript of our conversation on my website.
Dear Mr. Law Enforcement Agencies .... FUCK YOU!
