I retired after 27 years in law enforcement, was a firearms instructor and chemical agents instructor and bunch other qualifications I won't go into here. Since I am not a current active law enforcement I have to leave my safety and my families safety to someone else? Was really looking forward to attending the state fair this year with my extended family, we've decided to spend our time somewhere else. I hope Paxton runs them through the ringer.
