I’m confused. One minute the police are the “good guys”, who we should never question and are always doing the right thing (killing unarmed children). Now they are the evil corrupt “bad guys” abusing their power. So which is it?

Libertarians are so, so confused.
I guess the fact that these law enforcement types are the elected sheriff types means they are corrupted by politics.

Also, just because someone claims to be a Libertarian or libertarian, doesn’t mean they are.

There’s a youtube out there floating around of him in Kayfabe.

I always thought he should develop a character called “The Abortionist” when he enters the ring. You know, with a bloody apron, a Mity-Vac and forceps.

You know, you occasionally hear some shit about a “race war” coming or something along those lines. I tell ya though, black people in poor areas are gonna start killing cops more and more, with some justification. It’s gonna be a “war” because of blowback between those two groups before any race war.

I’m just hoping to steer clear of the whole mess. I don’t want to be collateral damage. I want to be in my living room with a bag of popcorn watching everything on my flatscreen in HD.

I do and it’s frightening these people were ever allowed to have a badge. The only good ones today are ones that have left the profession, because they couldn’t take the thug mentality that is required of the force today.

In cases wherein a sheriff is removed from office, it’s not necessarily the Chief Deputy who assumes the office. As a matter of fact, Haley has made it her practice to appoint “placeholders” who agree not to run for the office. If Dewitt is removed (or resigns under pressure) it would be extremely unlikely that she appoints the Ollic guy, unless he pledges not to run.

Wayne DeWitt – who was arrested for driving under the influence and fleeing the scene of a car crash near Goose Creek, S.C. early Sunday morning (December 28).

TBG wagers chicken wings were involved. (FITSNEWS should run side by side mugshots of Anderson’s Wingman and Sheriff DemWitt).

And he was accompanied in said vehicle by an as-yet-unidentified female who is also in the employ of Berkeley County taxpayers.

…might have been some chicken head involved, too. Bobby Petrino on line one.

Leaving the scene of an accident is a crime of moral turpitude. see State v. Horton, 271 S.C. 413, 248 S.E.2d 263 (1978)

South Carolina courts have defined moral turpitude as “an act of baseness, vileness, or depravity in the private and social duties which a man owes to his fellow man, or to society in general, contrary to the accepted and customary rule of right and duty between a man and man.” State v. Horton,
271 S.C. 413, 414, 248 S.E.2d 263, 263 (1978).

Further, “[a]n act in which fraud is an ingredient involves moral turpitude.” Id. In determining whether a crime is one involving moral turpitude, courts focus primarily on the duty to society and fellow man that is breached by the commission of the crime.
Alex Sanders et. al., Trial Handbook for South Carolina Lawyers § 13:13 at 484 (2000).

Nine sheriffs indicted, arrested, or died before they could get arrested in about four years, out of only 46 sheriffs. That’s about 20% of the sheriffs in the freaking state in what amounts to a single election cycle, which *has* to be some kind of record. I wish I had the time to research that, but it would probably just depress us all anyway.

Berkeley County would still be in jail if they had committed the same offences.
They would also no longer have a driver’s
license. This is an atrocity to both the residents of Berkeley County and law
enforcement.
If you are a Berkeley County resident and feel the same way call Nicki Haley’s office and complain at 803-734-2100. The governor appoints the sheriffs in the state,

DimWitts prevail in Berkeley County SC. Secret society elitists load up their resume’s with their freemason organized crime politico level / degree, or their fraudulently purchased Bachelors degree… The point is that the electorate of SC can’t tell the difference between a 32nd (organized crime ) degree from the local good ole boy / perjury freemason whoreouse, and a fraudulently purchased BS in Fire Science degree.

Those of us aero job creating transplants who’ve been defrauded of our life savings, and then defamed to put money in DimWitt’s friends pockets, will now educate the local deceived electorate as to the definition of FRAUD / WASTE / AND ABUSE!
