I briefly worked as a volunteer reserve deputy in my county after going through 6 months of their academy. It was a huge strain on my family with many days a week in class each night and about $1500 out of my pocket for my equipment.
As soon as they found my Facebook page, long since gone from there, they realized they had a problem. I was politically active and a defender of individual liberty. No, that's not acceptable, so they didn't even make me an ID. I was sworn in but suspended very quickly for a nonsense issue of a previous landlord robbing me in an unfair court order by a senile old judge.
Trust me. I know how messed up the system is. My original thought was that the concept of a sheriff was a great idea. It's not though. They are all bought and paid for politicians too. In theory the idea is great, but I don't believe it would work for long. The sheriff would have to be a very moral person to not be corrupted. Those moral people don't get elected usually.
We are better off with volunteer community leaders who can be replaced at any time and who have no more power than anyone else. Double standards, special protections, extra powers by any group over another is a horrible idea. It destroys individual liberty and justice for all as the saying goes.
That reminds me of the old saying, "Justice is something only the middle class believe in, for the wealthy and poor know better." The best thing he could do is walk away. When you live in a place with corrupt officials, fighting them is always a losing battle. Well, it is almost always a losing battle. It's one reason we always need to protect our liberty to travel...and vote with our feet. Stay armed too, so the bastards have to risk death to tread on you or your loved ones.
P.S. Try reporting the corruption to higher up government agencies too, and watch as they laugh and ignore it. I've been there and done that too.
UPDATE: Steemit Exclusive Coming Soon!!
