    Seems like a lot of negativity about BP on here, Whats the issue with you guys?

    Having dealt a lot with BP over the last 10 years these guys work damn hard and deserve every penny they make along with some comforts. You guys can complain but if you want something to change I say go turn in an application, not that hard to get hired and then you can personally ensure that "they are doing their jobs better".

    Just like military they are protecting your country more than you will ever see unless you are involved in it directly. And just like Military or any LEO, a few bad apples doesnt make the whole organization/department bad.

    Yes! They are chasing drug dealers through remote areas with lots of hiding places. And I would bet some of those drug dealers are at least as well armed as they are. If a Raptor gives them an edge catching the illegals, the human trafficers, and the drug dealers, then give them Raptors.

    We stopped off in Barstow on the way back from AZ a few weeks ago. I saw a BLM ranger getting out of a Dodge truck in front of the pizza place we were at. I'd never seen a BLM law enforcement vehicle before, I spent most of my time trying to figure out what agency he was working for. Never even thought it was a Power Wagon. Probably was, come to think of it. I know it had the winch fairlead and cable up front. Looked awesome all lettered up and sporting the red and blue lights.:eek:

    My guess is BLM doesn't need to go fast? BP apparently has the need for speed.:D
