Though I'm in agreement with most of you about illegal immigration, Dan Beck is the last person I trust on major issues. He screws up the smaller ones, too, but that's another topic.
Beck has been in one controversy after another and is prone to lying when confronted with the truth. He has this issue half right, but he's not the man a knowing person would want in charge. He's the type of sheriff who would enjoy nothing better than to issue martial law and bully the local citizens.
One recent example is that during the ice storm last year, he bragged that he ticketed so many drivers because they were out in the weather, that he had to order more tickets. No one was allowed on the streets. No one wanted to be on the streets, but some had family emergencies and were ticketed. One man drove across town to get his grandchildren, who were without heat, electricity, & water.
There are dozens of stories about this idiot, who finally grabbed an issue that would make him famous. He got lucky, but if checked out, would be toppled from his self-made pedastal.
That attitude regarding hometown citizens is repugnant. Thanks for the heads-up!
