Of course they do.

But on the other hand; if you pulled together a random selection of 40 sheriffs, what are the odds that 25% of them would be dirty?

Not a shocker. For me the question is WHY ARE THESE PEOPLE STILL SHERIFFS?

Of course, why is Trump still President?

Again, mostly fat, doughy white guys. The best and brightest of the white nationalist movement.

What the so-called “free press” doesn’t seem to understand is that real Americans like their facts alternative and their policing dirty.

The dude on the right looks kind of like the guy in the middle wearing an industrial strength corset.

Weird how those applauding a corrupt authoritarian are themselves corrupt authoritarians.

It’s sort of like the joke, “What do you call a group of ten people at a table with a Nazi? Eleven Nazis.”

I rather suspect that the difference between the law enforcement officers discussed in the article and the rest of those in attendance is the rest haven’t yet had legal proceedings brought against them, not that they haven’t done anything illegal.

That’s the joke :wink:

It may be worth your while to cross check the list of fêted sheriffs against a list of “constitutional” sheriffs.

One should never underestimate the strength of the attraction that disreputable scumbags have for each other.

What part of ‘mostly’ do you not understand? Living in Utah, ‘almost’ the whole legisIature is comprised of fat doughy white guys. I’m sick of fat doughy white guys making laws that they have no business legislating. Karl Rowe is from Utah, prime example.
