One Scared Sheriff

It's what he said! So what does longshanks fear??

According to the wte on 020911 "Right now I'm telling you I'm scared of man camps." Ohhhh no, the man camps are coming, the man camps are coming!!!!!!!

Ddg replies:
Scared of man camps? What kind of a leader are you? Ddg already knows your lack of leadership, but this makes it apparent to even the most hardened glick supporter. Do the deputies not have the training and equipment that they need?  After eight years of being in charge, you have failed to supply the training that they need. Laramie County has another four years of longshanks' overinflated ego along with his lack of leadership to look forward to.

According to wte: with a lack of law enforcement in the rural areas where the man camps may be established, there will need to be an increase of patrol, Glick said.

Ddg replies:
If there is a lack of law enforcement in the rural areas, whose fault is that? How long has that been going on? What does longshanks plan to do about it after being in charge for eight years and why has he not done something before this?

According to wte: requested that the county commission alert him as soon as it knows of a possible man camp moving into the area.

Ddg replies:
Waiting until notified is not an option. Perhaps being proactive and doing something, but that is not what longshanks is about.

According to wte: he said that he would not want to send one deputy to respond to a call at a man camp.

Ddg replies:
So a call for a vehicle identification check requires two deputies? Does a disturbance between two drunks require a SWAT call out?

According to wte: does not want his office to get behind the eight ball.

Ddg replies: So longshanks has not contacted any of the other counties in Wyoming that have had oil development and man camps and gotten information from them to be proactive in law enforcement and make informed decisions? Instead longshanks comes across as the scared and weak individual that he actually is. Laramie County deserves better, but thanks to glick being able to talk the talk without walking the walk, there will be four more years of political promotions, firing of experienced and qualified deputies who stood up to longshanks, and anything else longshanks decides to come up with. After all, he is the leader. You must respect him!

  1. I'm "scared" that the sheriff is ill prepared to speak with the media without at least thinking about the topic to be discussed and the message he wants to get across to the public. For him to say that he is "scared" of man camps is nothing short of unprofessional. People expect the sheriff to be prepared to handle any situation that arises. The fact that man camps are going to be coming back to Laramie County is nothing new. With the influx of oil field workers over the last several years it should be a clue to even the most backward law enforcement official that maybe preparations should be made to handle the usual problems associated with them. If the sheriff doesn't know what those problems are, he could have checked with other sheriffs in the state who have been handling these problems for decades. He might even have checked with the oil company representatives to find out what problems they might expect to occur. They have been known to be very helpful to communities they are working in to insure that they don't create a negative impact. In short, the sheriff's remarks are embarassing both to him, and to the people he is sworn to serve.
