Red River County Politics

     I am tired of hearing that Royce Abbott is feeble, and old.  I want all of you to know that the man is better physically fit than I am, and I am 53.  He works constantly, walks, runs, and tirelessly does work on his place to clean it up.  I will gladly take bets on a race.  Here are the contestants that we will put in it, and I will bet money that Royce Abbott will beat all of them.   Lets put them on a track and see who can run the farthest before wearing out.  I will take Royce Abbott over, Terry Reed, Larry Spangler, and Mark Perkins.  Oh, you say the race is fixed.  Now that I have thought about it, I will let you have Freddy Booker.  That will lower the odds just a little in your favor.  These are your law enforcement officials now, and what kind of a job are they doing? I know that Abbott would out run all of them.  He is in better shape physically and mentally than all of these overweight, out of shape so-called law enforcement officers.   He also knows the law better than any of them.  He worked inside the jail in Collin County when he was Chief Deputy, and helped write the jail standards that are in use today in the State of Texas.  I say worked inside the jail, because he goes inside the jail and talks to the prisoners.  Your best information about crime comes from inside the jail.  I bet that Reed and Spangler are rarely inside the jail.  They are want-a-bees, Royce Abbott is the real thing.  If Red River County passes up the chance to elect Royce Abbott as their next Sheriff, then it deserves anything and everything it gets.
