Like I said, it's socialism. Plain and simple. Check and see if you don't believe me.
No, it's not. You can't just declare anything you don't like to be "socialism".

Sure one can, if one doesn’t mind being “inaccurate”.

... I guess that on a good day, I wouldn't mind if non-citizens are employed to help enforce law and order. But I would offer the suggestion that they prove their own personal belief in the idea of the "Rule of Law" before they're hitched up to the local posse.

Shouldn't that also apply to citizens?

Those are the ones who are retiring early, being fired, and rejected from the force. More "equity" needed.

Based on the article, these weren't illegal immigrants, these were naturalized citizens who joined the military.

Therefore, it still doesn't substantiate nor support the misleading claim in the OP (which was attempting to portray a made-up scare scenario of a person sneaking across the boarder, finding their way to Illinois, and being handed a gun and a badge)
