#2 You get snowed in with nothing else to do and they won't let you have a drink?

#3 OK, so all you have to do is watch the Weather Chanel and base your booze and bullet purchases on the forecast; Fair to partly drunk for the next 24 hours, increasing to totally random auto fire by tomorrow night.

What's next; the Audi green pooleece commercial v. 2. 0 where the cops come before the storm to take your stuff?

#4 next up: Chief of police looking for work. The public is in no mood for nonsense of this sort, and are going to be enraged long after the snow has melted.

#5 Especially, I would think, in that part of the state.

#6 I find it difficult to comprehend the suddenly realized need in the middle of a blinding snowstorm to procure new supplies of guns and bullets. Surely anyone who needs either that badly already has a stash. On the other hand, how on earth is the arresting officer to know whether the car spun out on the road was in the process of fetching milk for the kiddies or cherry bombs?

#7 The police were stopping cars and searching them, without warrants. Of course, when four or five armed cops surround your car and "ask" if they can search it, most people will agree rather than risk further "encouragement".
