You hope a sheriff uses tax money to fund election messages? And you call that being a leader? But of course we need smaller government and lower taxes.

skycop 0 #10 February 19, 2016 Leadership means just that, LEADING.......... Mincing words, PC speech, is great politics, but it doesn't catch wanted violent criminals. You do realize he is not the Sheriff right? Sometimes you lead from the front........... Google Lieutenant or Captain Higgins crimestopper videos, you'll see others, they are almost as brilliant as they are effective. "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

skycop 0 #21 February 20, 2016 Exactly, It is a bit over the top, but in a likeable way. Sometimes you have to make a stand that's what he's doing, they went to great lengths to include various groups, he even gave notice to the majority of people in the county jail. Most petty criminal aren't bad people, just caught in bad circumstances. Violent hard core criminals are just that, sociopathic criminals, there is a huge difference.

skycop 0 #22 February 20, 2016 QuoteIn a capitalist society the market decides. It sure does, I make well above the median income with some college no degree. I've just worked my ass off and assumed risk others didn't want or have to. My father started with nothing, I mean NOTHING, got his bachelor's, then his masters in econ. He wanted to get his PhD, but decided to go into business, did very well for himself and retired. He also was an adjunct professor for many years, he still talks about how the "real professors" talked down to him and treated him like crap. He says mainly because he made more money than they did, and he could do what they did, except better with more real world experience. My uncle is a PhD, world famous in his area of expertise, and he is not a condescending dick. My other uncle was a very successful entrepreneur, who had no college education, and he wasn't a condescending dick. Soooo...................... "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"
