Blue Quotes
My family is Chilean, and I was born there. By the time I was four, we were living in San Antonio, Texas, and I just remember picking a blue bonnet and getting yelled at by some guy with a sheriff hat and a badge. I was traumatized. He told me it was the state flower, and I wasn't supposed to be messin' with it.

Border Quotes
Of course, 'The Last Stand' has a villain who is traveling to the border to fulfill his own desires, but it's more about the main character. The Sheriff putting a stop to this villain and defending his town. 'The Last Stand' is more about protecting something. About protecting a value.
-
Build Quotes
My first big challenge, and I knew that from the word go, was going to be to get citizen support and trust back toward the agency. How can you expect someone to trust you when you have the high sheriff himself being arrested? I had to build some trust and faith in this office from the people.
-
Although Quotes
for some unknown reason had a doubt that Brown was guilty, although the sheriff did not participate in the investigation, was not present for the victim interview and it was his own office that conducted the investigation and arrested the defendant. That's the most bizarre thing I've heard since I became prosecuting attorney.
-
Assigned Quotes
He wanted some sort of deal from the district attorney's office for his cooperation, and he wanted an attorney to assist him in working through this negotiation. The sheriff and I unsuccessfully tried to get him a public defender assigned as soon as possible because of the urgency of the situation.

Behalf Quotes
We had a company calling all the way from Augusta on behalf of a state trooper benevolent association. There was also a company calling around presenting itself as the 'Glynn County Police and Sheriff Association.' The only problem is that we've checked around and there is no such organization.
-
Ask Quotes
Constructing a new jail with only 608 beds will handcuff our next sheriff and inevitably force the county board to ask the taxpayers for more jail money in the very near term. Using the hard-earned money of the taxpayers to move forward on yet another short-term fix that fails to resolve the long standing problem of overcrowding is unacceptable.

Asking Quotes
There's no place for vigilante-ism or anything like that. If they saw something and wanted to write it down and they weren't going to confront it, we'd be happy to partner with them. But if they're going to confront and try to become the sheriff of their block, they're just asking to get themselves in trouble.
-
Authorized Quotes
As far as I'm concerned the guy was crooked as a snake. Wyatt Earp was a deputy U.S. marshal at the time of the shootout. Virgil was a deputy U.S. marshal, and the chief of police...Morgan had been authorized as a constable...Wyatt Earp had warrants for these characters, and the sheriff had warrants for Wyatt Earp. So it was crazy the way things were done.
-
Acted Quotes
They'll probably guarantee the sheriff re-election for years. The federal government has and continues to commit so many missteps in the name of bureaucracy, like the trailers sitting in the mud in Arkansas. Things that just become totally unreasonable to citizens ... turn them against government. You had a local official who understood the plight his citizens were in and acted in contrast to rule-bound bureaucrats up in Washington.
-
Bargain Quotes
I am not looking for a place to cut a deal, cut a bargain or to put something over on the county, ... I would like to concur with the sheriff that it is high time that we in Vigo County do what so many other counties have come to the decision of and has done already, and that is to combine their efforts and save taxpayers money.

Areas Quotes
The main gist of the sheriff's argument was that he is an elected official, and he will work as a whole for the agency, whereas the unions would only work for the particular areas of groups that they represent. I believe that he feels in his capacity as sheriff he can do a better job looking out for the interests of his deputies and all his employees.
