"Well, the presence has started. Before you read on, please be very aware of who you are talking about when you mention nasty remarks about our local law. As of April 1st, the BCSO(our TN county sheriffs office) has started their summer campaign of having a presence in the area full time. These local Sheriffs Deputies are great people, and are very approachable. They are here for everyones safety, and us locals are very appreciative of that. We have been asking them to have some sort of presence for the last 3 years, and now they are finally doing something about it. Its a whole lot nicer to have them around when we need it than to wait half an hour for them to show. Please remember that the THP were the ones that were picking on the bikers, and not the BCSO. Having said that, I have met some of the newer THP for our area, and all were fantastic to talk/deal with. While I do think we will see an increased police presence this year, I dont think any of them will act as stupid as they did last year.... at least I really hope not. In this country, you are innocent, until proven guilty, so please remember that if you have to deal with any of these folks this summer."
