Walking Tall is coming to town, and the criminals and all their whinning supporters better get ready to take a trip down town, where there is new management at the gray bar Hilton. Buford Pusser Morgan is going to get the blurred line of legal and illegal back in focus. Bring your big stick and lets bust some heads, because that is all these animals understand. Swift brute force. Oh and the public should have a respect or fear of Law Enforcement, that is the only way it can be totally effective against low life that continues to plague our town. Mr. Morgan don’t be afraid to get the big daddys that sit in their big fancy houses in Century and pretend they have nothing to do with the illegal activities that they initiate. They hide behind their churches and community organizations, and claim to be do gooders. The ones you see and hear in the town claiming harrassment and profiling are the very ones to watch. But no worry, if you round up all the scum that work under them, the scum will give them up eventually. Everybody has pressure points.
Sherriff Pusser Morgan the streets are yours.

(You saying …..Mr. Morgan will not stop drugs )….. If he doesnt stop the drugs going around in Century he might can put a dent into the drug dealing in Century of course i have seen 10 drug deals go down in 10 minutes and call 911 and told the dispatcher right where it was going on……A officer that showed up pulled up behind a store and sat there with his parking lights on it was getting dark by the time the officer got there about 30 minutes after the call went through! NOW how you gonna catch them if the officer is going to give hisself away…setting right at the drug dealers house with his parking lights on… I will say this if Mr Morgans officers dont work the right way then NO the drug dealers will get away with it just like they have for the pass years ….. The FemaTralier park that came into the Century city limits not long ago is why the drugs were brought into TOWN OF CENTURY CITY LIMITS.. everyone knew there was drugs in CENURY but not right off hwy 29 in the city limits close to the Alabama line!!!!! Last weekend i watched 3 officers go into a bar in Century to check for under age due to a call they found no under age because they didnt check ID’s, i sat there and watched at least 10 under age go into that bar 17 yr old under age kids i saw this myself the officers walked throught came out walked behind the bar a left …..they should of looked at ID”s
as soon as they left i set there and watched drug deals go down this one guy was going to everyone that walked up or pulled up…. in the parking lot this went on for about 2 hrs last weekend…
GOOD LUCK MR MORGAN

Yes Lana B. I would hurt someone if they gave drugs,beer, or cigarettes to my kids and if you wouldn’t then you need help. I don’t drink or smoke or do drugs and yes I have turned in a few who do drugs. I don’t regret it one bit. If you are not breaking the law I don’t think the law will mess with you to much and I have been stopped by a few lawmen in my time. I will say a few of those times I needed to be put in jail myself for drinking and driving. I use to drink and I know how it effects you and family and everyone you know. I do say that it is one of the worst drugs out there. I wish they would make it a crime to put all the ads on TV and in print about beer and whiskey. There is nothing romantic or super cool about it at all. Thank God above that my kids have never seen me or my wife take a drink. I thank Him everyday that I didn’t kill someone while I drank. Yes the drugs need to be stopped in Century and the rest of the country by any means that can do it. I don’t care if the person is in Century or any where else get them and don’t give them any breaks. Drug dealers don’t have any rights as for as I am concerned. Plain and simple. Lana if someone should ever do anything like that to your kids or grandkids I hope someone like me is around to stop them. God bless and protect all the little childern from harm of any kind.

I voted for Mr. Morgan–he has the knowledge and leadership that it is going to take to get through these next few years. The clean-up in Century will not be overnight, but anything will help. As I read the newspapers, listen to people here in the community about who is arrested, who done what–it is usually the same people over and over again. Heck, they get arrested and make it back to Century before the ink on the paperwork is dry! Our county/state not only need a sheriff that will tackle the problem straight on, but judges that will enforce the law. How can someone get arrested for the same (or related) crime(s) and not serve jail time, not pay for their own undoing? It is not a black/white issue, it is a community issue-all of us are potential targets……Let’s give our sheriff’s dept. the help they need.

I have nothing to be concerned about regarding ecsd.
concerning not being afraid to walk around at night/day etc. I was referring to safety. Obviously you are retired enlisted military or something like that where you think government should control everything.

What about civil liberties and freedom. Patrol your own neighborhood, take responsibility don’t blame everyone for what you can have an impact on in your own neighborhood. Take walks, it is good to show your presence and that simple daily act helps prevent crime as well.. The police depend on us to help them. Police cannot be everywhere all the time. Quit complaining and do your part.

just because someone doesn’t agree with you does not mean they have something to hide or fear.

Wow! I don’t think I have ever seen someone complain about more police presence?? Unless they or someone they know has reason to fear, I say go for it ECSD!

Lana B – how can you say as long as someone isn’t buying / selling drugs it doesn’t effect them??? Wake up my friend…. the drug trade – big and small- effects us all…. NEGATIVELY

conerned citizen #2…Mr. Morgan will not stop drugs from being sold here, no one can. We are not like Brownsville area in Pensacola and don’t deserve to be treated that way. You worry so much about drugs being sold to your children, etc. I bet you are not that concerned in front of them when you knock back a couple of beers.

I remember that chase up 29 very well. The police could have stopped the fellow well before he drove the 40 miles or so up 29 in many much less populated areas, come on now. He had one pistol with only the rounds in the gun and had fired all rounds while in Pensacola. If they had shot at him up 29 there would have been a lot less to hit. Have you not driven up 29? It is quite isolated in areas.

I personally saw all the bullet holes, tops of pine trees skimmed by bullets, the mini van with the back window shattered by police bullets (luckily the owner wasn’t in it), bullet holes through the house next door, etc. There was no reason to fire so many rounds at one person with no bullets left in the gun. We were very lucky here that someone was not harmed. After all those rounds fired, they didn’t even hit their target. What were they shooting at? Everything but their target it seemed. You obviously didn’t not do a thorough review of the area at the time.

You bet I was one of the ones complaining about the harassment of the decent and good people of Century. Arrest the people that violate the law but leave the rest of us alone.

We are not the armpit of Escambia County and I personally resent the implication that we are so bad here that we deserve to be treated the way Morgan is implying. There are more decent people here than there are bad people.

You say you would harm anyone who gave your children drugs and got them hooked…are you gonna treat the person who gives them their first dfrink of alcohol the same. Their first cigarette? Think long and hard about your wish to have deputies shoot em up around here.

Again we are not the armpit of Escambia County. We are decent people.
