RHC: You know that is one of the things I have never been able to
understand about the US justice system. They elect law enforcement
agents such as small town sheriffs etc. Law enforcement is a
profession that requires significant training of all sorts, from how
the law works, to how to handle deadly force responsibly.

I ask this in all sincerity....how can any elected official act as a
valid law enforcement officer, and uphold the law.  He could have been
doing something else completely different yesterday, and today he is
the sheriff responsible for law enforcement ??? I remember many times
over the years coming up over a hill on my motorcycle and here is a
local sheriff with his pickup truck, farmers overalls and radar
gun.....

Could someone explain this to me please
