Hogranch—– “Pluck Your Magic Twanger Froggie” Just gotta love that. “Gingles” The Andy Devine Show. Played in my home town of Boston in the late 1950s. Andy Devine was a T.V. star in the 50s, He also played Wild Bill Hickcock`s side kick named “Gingles” I can hear him now riding his horse with his crackling voice crying out. Wild Bill- wait for me. as his 400 pound frame had trouble trying to keep pace with hard riding Wild Bill. Gingles and Sheriff John along with Engineer Bill got us kids to drink our milk. Remember Red Light, Green Light. The game they used to get us kids to drink our milk, and us kids that were lucky enough to have milk gave it a good try. Along with Howdy Duty , Buffalo Bob, Mr Buster and the infamous Peanut Gallery.
Those were the days of innocents, getting married for love and staying married. and trusting and respecting your neighbor, not locking your doors and leaving your car keys in the ignition . Sorry we will never see those Days again.

If there were any consequences for being a cull it might not be so prevalent. But there’s not. He’ll be out sooner than the common man. If you have no money to pay a high fine then you’ll be fine. Seems to be the norm.

In light of this morning’s tragic events in Tehama, I wish the L.E. up there would of followed up on the neighbor’s complaints of his harassment and heavy weapons use. Kudos to the Sheriff’s office for catching this man before it got worse.

164, There’s no need for u to make such threats which I hope the lady in charge of this site will take some kind of action towards such angry open ended threats. And don’t give too much credit to ur crew because they didn’t find anyone, its on the internet. Satist like you are below these darn criminals, and god be with u, oh wait,?.. grow up, real gangsters like you speak of don’t exist, and wouldn’t have too run their mouth online. they are time bombs just like these criminals and run their course. Hmmm

wow. dude. I don’t think that was a threat but little warning … next time you hear ‘that’ foreign accent, look at the speaker and notice the tats …they are very specific symbols– but for your sake, don’t stare! don’t engage! just take quick mental notes on those gulag tats on hand and collar bones… and keep fiddling around doing what ever you be doing like its a beautiful day in the neighborhood.

They wouldn’t be using their knuckle head deputy crews brute force if they had any evidence, no one was caught in the act, wish everyone would move on, those pot growers destroy water, salmon, and their habitat. That should be 10 years

For one He has his own grow that is why he had all of those guns for 2 they didn’t get the warrent until 9 that night hrs after they had already done an illegal search of there home &car &even had some tech guy take my sister’s phone outside &did something to it &also he wasn’t hideing in the house he was in his bedroom &when they came in he put his hands & complied with everything they asked &also he had nothing to do with the bair Rd incident nor the bald hill one. The police was telling my sister she was really pretty &what was she doing with him(harvey crews) how professional is that of them she had to ask for them to get somebody from tribal police to come &sit with her while they continued there illegal search because she was uncomfortable by what a few of the officers were saying to her man thats really messed up.
