This editor has told certain members of the Medford Police Department time and time again that they are officers of the law 24/7. That means that they cannot scribble on Facebook as we do, for one very simple reason.
It can be used against them in a court of law to show credibility. (...or lack thereof...)

Harold doesn't need a distraction like this and, dare we say it, you only wish Hillary Clinton got the presidency that she won when she was duly elected by three million more voters than Trump, who was the beneficiary of the Russian interference (they hacked the machines, people, to manipulate the polling stations that would skew the electoral college the way Russia wanted it to go - with an imbecile in the White House, an imbecile that Vladmir Putin controls.

*This expression is a shortening and revision of expressions in the Old and New Testaments of the Bible. In Psalms 8:2, God ordains strength out of the mouth of babes and sucklings; in Matthew 21:16, praise comes from this source. Later generations changed strength and praise to wisdom. **i SHALL add "rock journalists" in one of my Bibles...
