Rhome has lost its collective mind. You always hear about the BS camera system for red light runners but rarely do you hear about it for speeders.
And they wouldn't dare think about setting up a camera on highway 287, would they?
Have to keep up the city's coffers somehow. The Rhome Police department is inept. My wife had a wreck on 114 on a snowy day a few years ago. Yes, she shouldn't have been driving, but her work wasn't closing and you can't dissuade her.
She ended up in a ditch and the officer that dropped her off at Grandy's treated her poorly. Probably because she was keeping her from his real job of armed revenue collector.
Then after the insurance company could not contact anyone at the police department, I went and paid for a report myself. No response. I hope it bought some good donuts.
Don't speed and you will have know worries. The Chief in Rhome is fare from inept. He is a good police officer. I do not like this at all but this did not come from the Police Department.
10:51 a.m.- The police chief is inept, your spelling is inept, and nobody would ever value your opinion because of it. In fact, I bet you are the police chief!
Rhone doesn't have "police officers" they have glorified meter maids.To protect and serve is not there motto but to write tickets for money.Why are there windows tinted darker than the law allows? Are they above the law ? I agree, a bunch of sorry sobs!!
Son, we live in a world that has streets, and those streets have to be guarded by men with guns. Whose gonna do it? You? You, anonymous? Police Officers have more responsibility here than you could possibly fathom. You weep for getting a ticket, and you curse the police. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what they know. That getting a ticket, while tragic, probably saved lives. And that their existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives. I know deep down in places you don’t talk about at parties, you want them on that street; you need them on that street. They use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punch line. They (police officers) have neither the time nor the inclination to explain themselves to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom they provide, then question the manner in which I provide it. I prefer you said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand to post.
There's some crooked business going on in that PD and a lot of people in the county know it. That kind of stuff starts at the top and it does there. I hope it is just a matter of time before he's caught. You cant be dishonest and lie for yeears when its easier to tell the truth hurting good people in the process without getting caught, I hope.
If the Rhome PD is always in another town eating donuts....then how are they writing you guys all these tickets? C'mon people... It's the law, I'm sorry, you may not like, but it has to be upheld by somebody, and they risk their lives to do it! I can guarantee you would want the law to step in, if they were speeding and hurt you or your family.....
There is one good Rhome officer and he is looking to leave. As far as the rest go, I know of one that has been fired from 3 departments and "Layed Off" from another. Guess the concept of a background check has not reached Rhome PD.
Did anyone do a thorough background check on the Chief at Rhome. Perhaps he has a lot of skeletons in his closet. How many times was he on probation at the Wise County Sheriff's Office? The caliber of officers is often, but not always reflected in the leadership (or lack thereof) of the Chief.

I will shoot that son a bitch down with a Rifle, Rhome can kiss my ass!!!
I bet attorney Carillo in Decatur is making a killing off all the tickets he defers in Wise County.
He handled 1 for me last year. I was told he's the only attorney who does them in the county at $250.00 a ticket.

That gives "The Rhome P.D." more time for doughnuts without losing any of their steady flow of ticket money
There is no donut shop in Rhome that is why there is never an officer on duty in Rhome when you need them, they are in another city eating donuts.
I'll never spend another dime at any business establishment in Rhome!

Rhome has enough black eyes without that stupidity. I am for the guy with the rifle.
I'm a cop and I think the idea is nuts. Oh and anon 10:51, ROFL!!
