I have been hearing a lot of criticism about LCRA Rangers and chose to vent and see what everyone has to say about this. We go though more training than most municipalities just in the law enforcement area we get and provide more training in Marine Safety Enforcement we are the go to agency for Marine Safety Enforcement Officer (MSEO) Certification . When a lawyer comes out at us and states we are a sub standard agency which is reckless in out ventures is a harsh claim which is unfounded. No one seems to realize that Mr. Benson resisted arrest and was found to be intoxicated behind a wheel. All of our Officers are not trying to find someone to take in to ruin a day on the lake but at the same time we will stop a person before they kill a family or a child. I as a Police Officer and Certified MSEO know for a fact that if I was found alone with a larger person with a boat full of others I would spray the person without hesitation. All of my guys are great Officers and have great respect for all of out guests in our pars or on our lakes. What does everyone think about this and does anyone have any experiences with us on boat inspections or any other event?:roll:
