I must respectfully say that you have misread the article JB Madison, since it clearly states they are only purchasing a thermal scanner for criminal investigations and to aid their search and rescue staff. There is no mention of buying any office equipment?
I for one feel better knowing they will have this new technology device at hand in the case of either a terrorist criminal act or lost person emergency.

Money to be spent on office equipment and thermal imaging. Surely that will help stop terrorist attacks

I believe Sheriff Jackson should be applauded and not demeaned for using the funding in a constructive and purposeful manner. I believe that even one life saved is well worth the money and this simple fact proves that our sheriff is thinking and acting to protect everyone's well being.
You should be commended Sheriff Andy Jackson for your insight and forethought, since you are truly a good person and let no one ever doubt this obvious fact!

WOW!, nearly $12,000 for a thermal imager and search and rescue. Maybe one of these days I can get someone to act on my submitted police report from 7 months ago. Budget cuts are a fact of life, you don't quit doing work and use lack of resources as an excuse.
