Careerism
Nice example of careerism here. A seriously confused ramble from a sheriff. He's worried about "right-wingers", and he's also worried about a "war on police".
The "war on police" is NOT coming from the "right-wingers" he's worried about. The "war on police" is coming from the OTHER side.
Confused but understandable.
Where does a sheriff get his money? Partly from the county taxpayers, and heavily from the side that's creating the "war on police", i.e. the Feds.
He also knows that his re-election depends strictly on the same Sharpton-worshipping media who implement the "war on police".
No point in getting riled about this. He's competent. He does his basic job of catching criminals properly. Anyone who managed to get elected in his place would have to say the same idiotic things to stay in office. Given current conditions, a replacement is guaranteed to be worse.
Unfortunately but NOT accidentally, these remarks may have the effect of CREATING the situation he claims to be worried about. Now that he has slapped the "right-wingers" in the face, a response that the media will instantly define as a "war on police" WILL be coming from the side he wants it to come from.
