Can I get an assist?  Will the answer change my life?  Should I even care?  Should I hide my dog?

All I know is that JBT's and dogs don't mix.  I haven't the foggiest idea what "JBT" stands for or it's relevance to..... cops?

Oh well.....maybe it's for the best that I never learn this information.  I already know too much.

Jack-Booted Thugs.  a.k.a.  overzealous members of law enforcement who think nothing of crushing your rights and personal freedoms...and shooting any pets you may have.

I think it started when some spokesman for the NRA referred to ATF agents as JBT's.  It caused a bit of a stink, and G. Bush Sr. cancelled his lifetime membership.  Not sure what prompted the whole thing.  It was before Waco, I believe.

That's OK. I'm probably the last guy who doesn't know how to start a damn poll (not that I've ever needed to).

As an ex-LEO and general supporter of police officers, I'll have to say that I agree with old John.

We should have been horsewhipped for creating or perpetuating that many acronyms!

We keep this up, before long we won't be able to talk anymore just use acronyms.
