LT Hillers:
The evidence supports that we are both assholes from two different zip codes. The evidence from what I have witnessed, in conjunction with testimony reported to me by numerous citizens, supports that you deploy salt and grit to oppress the individual while serving the state. At the same time, I believe the evidence strongly supports that I lawfully deploy salt and grit to serve and defend the rights and liberties of the individual from the state.
When you manifest evidence of that form of law enforcement, are you serving your own internal psychological needs or the needs of others?
“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

When I first spoke to you in the Marshall County Courthouse, I knew who I was and could see who you are.
When we spoke for the first time in the Marshalltown, IA PD lobby, I respectfully submit that the evidence strongly supports you demonstrated that you knew neither yourself nor who you were talking to.
I will be at Taylor’s Maidrite at 1730. If you would like to sit down and eat Marshalltown’s best meal on each other’s dime, I would enjoy getting to know you better as a human being. If you are good to me, I will consider buying you dinner on our third date. I respectfully request the opportunity to participate in ride-alongs with you and LT Watson to rise above the trauma I believe the evidence supports this law enforcement department has caused me.
The Form of a Man’s Rib
Immense pain is a never-ending inkwell. Honor, Courage, and Commitment are the canvas on which legends are born.
Only the weak and undisciplined turn to heroin in a dark alley.
The righteous patiently wait for the Lord our God to provide the heroine that was removed from their bodies (see Genesis 2:22).
Within my selfless form, I have the capability to lawfully dismantle corruption until the fires of hell have long been extinguished. But, within my selfish form, I only desire the beautiful peaceful simplicity of serving the security, hopes, and dreams of one woman.
