Yep, the typical elitist look of contempt towards the citizens he was suppose to protect - who have now convicted him. I hope he gets a cold-turkey druggie for his cellmate.

Hell, when I lived in California I can remember the L.A. Times doing an expose about the Men’s Central Jail in downtown Los Angeles.

It houses 22,000 male inmates and is run by the L.A. County Sheriff’s Department.

This was in the 1980’s, and even back then, the deputies formed their own gangs, abused inmates, forced rival gang members to fight for the amusement of the deputies, beat inmates, etc.

The corruption has been going on for many decades.

Mr. GG2’s father would turn over in his grave. He used to be a deputy sheriff in LA county. Mr. GG2 said they were great role models to grow up around.

He should act like it. Running his jail like one in Mexico just isn’t an “American value”.

You keep moving off of your idea to deport an American born citizen.

Did you change your mind?
