    The mayor saying that they have been taking the recommendations of Obama's 21st century police force, I'm thinking that could be part of the problem with the MPD.

    What's happening to this country is getting harder to accept.
    Sorry I lived to see it.
    And sorrier to see nothing done about it ...

    When I was in my 20s, I was still living in Kingsville, and I applied to be a Game Warden.
    Now here is a little backstory:
    For those that don't know, at the time, Kingsville was the headquarters of the King Ranch.
    The major actual Family players at he time were the Klebergs, Clements and Armstrongs.
    Growing up, Scott Kleberg and I were best friends until about the age of 10, until he went off to school.
    My Father was his Godfather, Jim Clement was my Brothers Godfather.
    Both my parents worked for the Ranch. My Father managed 2 businesses at the same time for them, one has been sold some years ago, the other "The Running W Saddle Shop" is still owned by them. He also was one of three guides during Deer season for the Ranch.
    My mother worked for Dr. J. K. Northway, the head vet for the Ranch.
    At the time, all undeveloped area around Kingsville for miles and miles was owned by the Ranch.

    Alot of rambling for a short story, but after I took the written test I was told I was in the top 10%, and along with this was a letter of rocommendation from Mary Lewis Kleberg, who's husband at one time was President of the King Ranch.
    Seeing as how I would probably be covering mostly Ranch property, I figured I was a shoe-in.

    I was denied.
    I was told by certain people that it was due to my last name.
    I hope this doesn't offend anyone.....

    I assume knowing your last name (I do not) really ties that story together. I don't really follow it or see any reason to be offended.

    I also know little about the King Ranch so that may play into it too.

    Well, the part that might be offensive, and didn't really want to come out and say, is that I don't have a Hispanic last name.
    I was told they needed to fill a quota.

    To add also, at one time it was the largest Ranch in the world, with over 1 million acres, with property in several States, including Hawaii.
