    politics in clothing, WHY?

    I have Patagonia fleece I have been wearing for 25 + years. One pull over I wore almost everyday in morning for 20 at work. I still have it in my hunt gear bag. I have thrown away several other brands since...none for political reasons.

    Is it too late to think about changing careers and becoming a Game Warden or Deputy Sherriff at 54 years old?

    I retired from Park Ranger job @ 54 after 20 years.... & glad I did. That was 10 yrs ago. I would say a small local sheriff deputy would be preferable to GW for an older guy. The stress could be same depending on state/area. I have older friends involved as reserve deputies and S&R/Posses.
