Hubby and I always get our gas at Jim's Atlantic, a local family business that has been there for many years.  They are citizens, friends and neighbors who spend their money locally.  Unless it got way higher than big gas, I would still get my gas there.
You pull in, they come out to pump your gas, they smile and sometimes give you a loaf of Zucchini Bread.  You can get your oil changed there with a smile and no line up.  The good old days are still here if you look for them.  Don't expect mega advertising, just gas pumped for you.

I went to Sheetz in Brookville the day of for a bottle of wine.  The line extended out onto Allegheny Blvd.   ....I wasn't about to sit in line for that cluster-'F of an event to save a few dollars(time is money to me, even my free time).   Brookville PD had a squad car and officer helping with traffic.

They need warrants just like any other officer.   But just like any other officer, if they see a crime take place, they can act on probable cause.

Game Wardens have full police powers in PA just like the State Police and municipal police.  They can also issue tickets for vehicle offenses.    All officers of the law in PA are officers also when off duty, and have powers state wide.   Yes, your DuBois police officers have the same power of arrest if they visit Philly on vacation as they do within the City of DuBois on duty.

The Game Wardens, State Police, and municipal police aren't the only type of police in PA either.   There are sworn rail police, elected constables(and their deputies), DCNR police(rangers), and a few others - all with full police powers.  It is just their primary duty is to a specific thing or area - but their powers extend beyond.

PA sheriffs really aren't police in PA(except in Allegheny County).  They are more of a bailiff/bounty hunter than officers of the law.  They only have the same powers of arrest as you and I.  ...for when there is a warrant for the person, when you witness a breach of the peace, or when you believe a felony has occurred.

Could be.  It'd be far from the first time that has happened.
I80 is also a major corridor between NYC and more western major cities, both for legit and illicit reasons.   I'm actually surprised their aren't more dead folk found along the interstate.

I talked to my daughter who is one of the fire fighters.  She had to hike in about 3 miles with full gear plus carrying extra fuel for (a back fire?).  It's about 35-40 pounds through swamps and brush.  They went in to be sure the hot spots were put out.  This tiny girl amazes me all the time!!

A lesson we all should learn from!


An anthropologist played a game with some children of an African tribe.
He placed a basket full of fruit under a tree and told them: ‘The first child to reach the tree will get the whole basket’
When he gave them the start signal, he was surprised that they simply walked together, holding hands, until they reached the tree and shared the fruit!
When he asked them why they did that, they answered: “Ubuntu”
“How can one of us be happy while the rest are miserable?"
Ubuntu means: ‘I am, because we are’. 
Those young tribal kids understand the entire principle of life and the true source of happiness. The whole world needs to understand ‘Ubuntu’, that’s what this awakening is all about. ❤️❤️❤️
 

Heck, I've been waiting 25 years for them to fix the timing of that light so that more than 2-3 cars can make it thru the turn arrow light.   ...just one slowpoke at the front and only that car gets through.

A week ago we rolled into DuBois for a late dinner at the Post and saw that new "DUBOIS" sign at the waterfall.   The old lady said "Wow, that's nice!"   I said, "Can they make DuBois any more ghetto-like?"

I dont care what side the fence a person is on - but if they are doing illegal or dirty stuff, they should be charged and arrested to stand trial.

Herm's a liberal...he uses everyone else's money.

Brookville and Jefferson County are still very close people unlike most other counties that have become divided by society.  Now I'm, not supporting that in police or government matters, but I work there with the public and can see it all the time.  That alone does not make them bad.  They have their share of nutcases also.  But in all, the natives there are very nice people.  It's beautiful clean farming country, certainly not a slum.

Just recently I had another shopper at Hometown(Mike's) check on me.   I've been suffering from neck and back problems for past couple months, and happened to need a breather, leaning against an aisle with tears coming out of my eyes from the pain.   She asked if I needed 911, which I declined and told her the situation.  

I personally would rather my "neighbors" see if I'm okay than not.   It could have been a different situation that day.

The left is the party of the criminal in recent years.  A time when we need to be tougher on crime and they go softer. Fetterman advocates for legalizing heroine for users. Smart. Just smart.
