Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers!? I think I still have a couple comic books somewhere in my hoard. You did it again--put into words what the rest of us are thinking.
We grew up in Stuyvesant Town. There were quite a few policemen living there. My father was a NYC police captain. He had several friends in walking distance. I didn't follow his example. I went into the Air Force, from which I retired. Even today I can make use of facilities on base, such as the commissary. Every time I go in and hit the checkout line the cashier checks ID cards. And every time I respond the same way ... Badges? We don't need no stinking badges! After which I show her my ID card.
So yeah, no ID to verify voting, no citizenship rqrd to be a deputy, elected sheriff could be non-citizen, voted into position by residents who are illegally here. Perfect.
