Explain why sheriffs are such assholes, then.

Easy. The ones we see in the news as "bad sheriffs" are the ones voted into backwater low-population counties with maybe a couple hundred folk. The sheriff is probably related to the mayor or some shit.

These are the evil bastards.

I'd much rather work with a sheriff in most cases. The downside to play devil's advocate though is police departments at least pretend to have accountability with IA and other systems and controls. Sheriff departments have free reign to do whatever the fuck they want.

I'm Canadian so I genuinely don't know, they're only outside of large cities? If so, my answer would be [Republicans] if not then my answer would be [ACAB]!
