Gee, I guess people from UTAH don't have much of a sense of humor, eh?

Apparently not. Lighten up, will ya???

I think you guys are being too sensitive about this. It was meant as a joke.

Hey, Richard! Feel free to joke about Alaska anytime. We love to tell stories on ourselves. And it is practically REQUIRED to have a sense of humor if you're gonna live in a place that has snow on the ground 7 months out of the year!

It's been known to snow on Memorial Day, the 4th of July........ Remind me again, why I live here.

I think Richard's post was mean't in a light hearted manner too,besides everyone who has ever visited the state of Utah, myself included knows what a beautiful place it is, i have been to orem where this took place,and as pointed out every state has these types of going on's,phew glad in NZ we have one law for the whole country, makes it a darn site easier, mind you we are very small.

So take it how it was mean't,hey they joke about NZ having more sheep than people here, and guess what it is true.

I guess when you live in a state like New Joizy you get used to being the object of jokes.

I honestly don't think Richard meant anything by it other than to poke fun at a police force with nothing much to do. If anything that tells you there isn't much serious crime going on there and that's a compliment.

richard, i've often found ohio to be joke worthy, and since i'm "from that state up north", i'm very willing to join in

OUCH!!

This was all meant to be a joke, I do believe you were the one to take offence to this first.

This thread would have not turned this ugly if the story came from....Arizona or somewhere else, and believe me, we have some VERY stupid criminals - um, make that people, that live here!

Stupid stories come out of every town, city and state Richard just happened upon this one and he thought he'd share it with everyone -

***Note to Richard - no more Utah stories!!
