2. This is my community..

This happened in my community. It is obvious you do not live here nor care to pass on correct information.

The police were not slow to react. They responded to a call that sounded like a possible hit and run. On scene they found that John had been shot. This was a county road. NOT heavily traveled. I have no clue where you believe roadblocks should have been set up.

The FBI was here within a very short time period and are very involved with the investigation. As is the entire community. See something, say something.

John did not have a drivers lic. and road his bike every day, every where. Some learning disabilities kept John from a more traditional life. But, he was known and loved in this community. He had worked at a couple of the grocery stores and knew everyone. The last few years he had worked for the Town in the Parks department. Helping to maintain several of the local parks. He loved the Broncos, supported the High School athletic teams. And was very involved in a couple of local fund raisers.

He was PROUD of his community and would be absolutely heart broken to think someone would use his death to spread this type of nonsense.

Tomorrow we will bury John. Services will not only be attended at his church but also broadcast at the High School (for over flow). Then food and memories at the High School.

I would invite anyone to come to Windsor tomorrow and see what a safe, caring community is really like.

BTW - the lawsuits and ammo issues had NOTHING to do with our local Police. That broad brush does nothing to help any situation.
