Like a sheriff in a western, police chief and part-time schoolteacher Juan Bracamontes gritted his teeth and assembled his 15 officers, who had nothing better than old .38-caliber revolvers to face off against the enemy. "Those who want to leave can leave," the chief said. "Those who want to stay and fight, line up behind me and we'll give it to them good."

I hace heard SO much praise for Vizio online and I live in the Midwest where Wal-Mart and Sears are in every town.
