Had you gone on record, it would have reinforced the negligence. Thats what always happens, hindsight. I have seen the effects of someone run over, my mother was hit and just about left for dead. I'm all for diplomacy, and related strategy first and foremost, a civil solution is best, I do understand retaliation and not making waves, but there is a point where that just may not be feasible and one must stand their ground, consequences or not, thats just how it is in my opinion LOL !!!
I will not be intimidated. I had a town magistrate or justice of the peace try it with me, over an incident which resulted in a clear set up by them, make no mistake about it, I did not back down and there was a state trooper in the court whom I know very well, that witnessed the final conversation between I and the elected fool. They pulled some real crap on us and we took them to task to the bitter end, yes you do have to live with the repercussions sometimes, but it finally brought closure, which was best for all, the dust does settle, time changes things and so on. Had we backed down, the hardship would have been worse, instead they paid as did the taxpayers who elected them.
I hate when people have to fear authorities, that is wrong and should never be tolerated. I watched my @ss for years just the same, mostly worked out of town, that helped, I did it as to not draw attention, embroil or inflame the situation or have it continue, not out of fear. The climate of the elected officials changed, there were some real bad apples here at one time. They respect us now and as we do them, the way it should be. I have a much better appreciation now than I did. I'd do it again, win lose or draw. You hit a nerve LOL, I vehemently cannot stand intimidation, bullying, or what have you, as much as I hate a thief !

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
