The Herald Bulletin, Anderson, Indiana

The last couple of days several State Police Officers have been harassing Anderson residents over seat belt use. With the high crime and murder rates in Indianapolis, two of the biggest drug highways running through our state, and the number of reckless drivers on I-69 you’d think they would have better things to do with their time. The City of Anderson has a very well trained and capable police department. The last thing we need here are a bunch of Mitch Daniels storm troopers in our city stealing money from citizens over an issue that affects no one but the person who chooses to wear or not wear a seatbelt. What’s next; are they going to come into our homes and start looking for petty crimes that affect no one?

And before anyone accuses me of being a disgruntled ticket holder; no I am not one of the unlucky ones to have been robbed by the revenue collectors. I'm just tired of seeing them harassing others.
