It’s not really an issue of liberals devouring their own.
The real issue is that rank and file law enforcement, especially sheriff’s deputies loathe Mirkarimi.
That’s why there was so much heat on Mirkarimi.
Law enforcement’s candidate was defeated because Mirkarmimi was able to cobble a coalition of radical leftist, occupiers and homosexuals
Mirkarimi has no experience in law enforcement, except for a political appointment as a DA investigator.
Mirkarimi is also a crazy radical leftist. He helped found the California Green Party, worked for Nader and is very anti-law enforcement.
Finally, Mirkarimi is termed out as supervisor. He couldn’t get elected mayor so he had to run for sheriff.
He is incapable of doing anything except politics. That’s why he’s fighting so hard to keep this job.
I knew I’d get corrected on my choice of words.
Thanks for that clarification and expansion on the mood of the forces he commands and would inspire and lead thru example. Big Oops there.
I agree, Ross is a political animal, not unusual in today’s world where politics is what you do for some.. a profession when it should be just the opposite.
