All in the Family featured the curmudgeonly Archie Bunker. Archie was television’s most famous grouch, blunt, blustering, straightforward and untouched by the PC crowd. He was the archetype of the conservative male. Michael desprately tried to reeducate him, but he persisted in his breviloquence.



Looking back at the last 40 years, we realize: ARCHIE WAS RIGHT!

Almost...

The sheriffs deputies just left. For the second time in my life I pointed a gun at another human being with the express purpose of shooting.  Gun hot, Safety off, slack out of the trigger.  I shouted orders.  Stop! On the floor!  He did and no one died.

911 was great. The cops were here in less than 3 min.  They got the kid and all's well that ends well.  Most importantly the wife and kids were at grandma and papa's so they didn't see daddy draw down and nearly kill somebody.

I should mention that the two deputies that came were very professional and supportive.  They seemed like good guys.
