Sheriff Chuck Wright Doesn’t Hold Back

In the article he makes several good points.

Whatcha think?

**eriknemily** · 10-31-2011, 12:01 PM

He's a heck of a sheriff. I'd love to have a few like him in Oregon!!!

**RedneckRampage** · 10-31-2011, 12:13 PM

That is awesome, and very true.

**mjbskwim** · 10-31-2011, 12:14 PM

Just saying what we already know.Only he's getting better publicity

**Calirefugee** · 10-31-2011, 12:25 PM

A+, we definitely need some more like him.

I'll take three dozen for Oregon's sake. Having a surplus is always a plus too.

**giddyupgo55** · 10-31-2011, 01:51 PM

That was great. We need more cops like him.

Sheriff Chuck Wright is alright in my book!

Thanks for your service Sheriff!!

From what I saw and heard, He is what I consider a Good LEO!

**Father of four** · 10-31-2011, 04:31 PM

Yep, but then there's the flip side....like this. Miami Cop Fausto Lopez's 120 MPH Turnpike Drive Caught On Video - Miami News - Riptide 2.0

After his arrest, which happened back on Oct. 11 around 6:30 in the morning, Lopez was charged with misdemeanor dangerous driving. Thats all????????

We do need more LEOS like Wright and a legal system that actually charges a Bad LEO with the appropriate charges for their illegal actions.

**Father of four** · 10-31-2011, 04:34 PM

BTW, Trooper D.J. Watts = Good LEO.

**civilian75** · 10-31-2011, 05:00 PM

I really liked it when he said "gun control is when you can get you barrel back on the target quick."

I'd like to say that the same thing goes for senior Oregon state trooper Ryan Kerr!

I like it! Did anyone else vote in the survey next to the news article on that web page? Surprising results.

Yes, but there should have been an "I support the CHL/CWP" option.

And as a follow up, I don't care what the law says, and I know da-mned well that I'm posting this on a public forum, if that was my wife or daughter, I would take the law into my own hands period, and sleep well at night in a cell. The Sheriff is 100% correct, the animals that our so-called justice system keeps releasing onto the streets have become a plague upon the honest that have to live with them. When will a judge be held accountable as an accomplice to rape or homicide for releasing a chunk of human excrement like this back into society? Please, some liberal, civic minded individual with social leaning tendencies step up and just try to defend this type of scum being released back again and again to prey on our people, and dont hand me that "our jails are full" and the money is needed elsewhere crap. It takes a village my arse. Sorry folks, had to rant.

I'm with you 100%. I have a wife and daughter and I could honestly say I'd serve life to deliver justice that lasts longer than a few years. Could you imagine if all law enforcement thought like this what a safe world we would live in? If citizens were not afraid of the repercussions of self defense how many victims would have been armed? I don't care what anyone says if I ever have to pull the trigger I know my life will be turned upside down and very well may be charged with something. In all honesty I only care about my families well being, its the whole reason I started carrying.

Vengeance is not justice.

No strictly speaking vengeance is not justice. Sometimes both are accomplished at the same time though. If somebody rapes and terrorizes another human being they deserve whatever comes their way including death imo. If criminal types knew that this was the likely outcome of their crime they would be much less likely to commit it.
