Well, because it is the truth? The vast majority of law enforcement, whether it be local, state or federal, are hardcore Republicans. It is a fact. They are as hardcore as hardcore can be. They are low information voters. They buy into every conspiracy theory you can imagine. They are all hardcore NRA loving gun nuts. There are some moderates, just like in any population, but the vast majority of those who get involved in law enforcement are those type A gun-ho ultra-conservatives who are driven by their emotions and not their cognitive processes.

Law enforcement's biggest problem is they are not reflective of the society they are there to protect and serve. They lean one way and they behave one way, contradictory to the expectations of society itself. They are an attack pitbull when society needs a will trained lab. If there was one component of government that seriously needs to be overhauled it is this part of the executive branch. Law enforcement needs an enema.
