but ok. I retired with 23 years in Federal law enforcement. Is that good enough for you? It offends me because these lands belong to all of us. They are fundamental to who we are. As liberals. we believe that government has a role to play in our lives, and one of these roles is being a steward of our environment, including protecting sensitive areas such as this. And yes, my sensibilities regarding law and order have been offended. I sincerely tried to be fair during my career, and I have always been offended by injustice, more so now than ever, and more so because I had first hand experience seeing injustice in the system. Good enough for you? Now, go ahead and alert.
