They may be low tech, a little rude, a little crude and not too
polished around the edges. Some of them may be a little lacking in
people skills. Political correctness is not their strong suit. You
won't see them on "Cops," but they handle anything the big city
cops do. Their beat is measured in hundreds of square miles, not
city blocks. Most of the time, their backup is at least twenty
minutes away, if it is available at all. As their Sheriff says,
"You do what you're big enough to do." Country cops know that there
are many ways to "protect and serve" besides making arrests. They
know that there is more to law enforcement than strict adherence to
code sections in a criminal law book. There is right and wrong. The
law is not necessarily right. Country cops go with what is right.
The people they serve are not strangers, as is the case in urban
America. Their folks are friends and neighbors. They are good and
bad. Country cops take care of their people.
