in greater numbers and wearing protective gear. They were all wearing high, snakebite proof boots and what looked like Kevlar pants. And gloves, they all wore gloves.

“All right wise guy.” the detective said "we have another warrant. Take a look at this one.”

Roy took the piece of paper from him. He glanced at it then looked at the cop. "Much better, at least you have the name right, even though you have misspelled it. I’ll let that pass. I know the quality of public education these days. But there is another problem.”

“What now?” the detective said "That warrant is issued by the county judge. It’s valid here and we have all been deputized by the Sheriff.

“I’m so thrilled that you would go to so much trouble just for me.” Roy told them. "But the fact remains that this property is not in the county. Check your GPS please. Surely you have one? "

“Yeah we do.” the detective said then he turned to one of the policeman and told him.” Check it.”

The policeman did so. "Sir. You might want to come look at this yourself.”

The detective did so. Then exclaimed "This can’t be right. According to this we’re not only not in the country but we’re in the next state!”

“Since it’s obvious that we are not in any type of city” Roy told them.” I suppose you’ll have to see the sheriff.

“We’ll just do that” the detective looked one step away from stroking out. He was that angry. "Where is he?”

“That would be me.” Roy said " I’m the Sheriff in this county. Request denied. Now leave.”

Sometimes it's hard to tell fiction from the news.

Sort:  

There was a lawyer down thataway in Tejas that incorporated his office as a municipality (Liberty City, or summat). He had all sorts of fun with it, passing laws that prevented LEO's from other jurisdictions from bearing arms, and generally raising a ruckus.

Don't think it ended well for him, but I had to admire the cojones.

Sheriff, we don't need no stinking sheriff.
