This sheriff will be reprimanded/fired in 3-2-1 days. Even if it is an elected office. That is how bad this liberal disease has gotten.
Cant fire an elected official.
Nah. He wont get reprimanded. The state order does not carry a penalty. As much as I like Jones this is just grandstanding. But still very useful. I wish he would have said. Our delightful Governor has decreed we should where mask but he lacks the conviction of his words and has also decreed there is no penalty for violating his former decree. In deed our Emperor Has NO Clothes.
Now Ohio has the spectacle of every county and city doing whatever they feel like. DuhWhine is almost as bad as Kaysick. I miss Strickland (the gov not the senator). Dont agree with him but he was not sanctimonious or whiney.
Being a duly elected Sheriff there is little anyone can do to him. About all that can be done is maybe reduce his operating budget but that act could easily explode in the County Commissioners faces if they tried it but that is about all that could happen if I'm not mistaken. A Sheriff is a pretty powerful elected position to occupy.
Practically he is only accountable to people who vote for him and answers only to the County Commissioners Court and then they cannot fire or discipline him. Maybe reprimand him but even that is within a limited scope but I believe that's about it. Support your local Sheriff.
