I support and applaud the many fine sheriffs, deputies and employees of sheriffs' departments throughout the U.S. who quietly go about doing their jobs every day of their working lives. They are to be commended and I would state unequivocally that these hard-working men and women are a solid majority of law enforcement personnel. It's the miscreants of the profession that I have attempted to call out for the defilements of their oaths of office, for their betrayal of our trust. Because there was no one state that stood apart from the others in terms of abuses on the part of its sheriffs, and for ease of reference for the reader, it was decided that the best way to present my findings was to simply go alphabetically, state-by-state.
Since the end of the Cold War, and especially since September 11, few issues have been more hotly debated than the United States' role in the world. In this hard-nosed but sophisticated examination, Colin S. Gray argues that America is the indispensable guardian of world order. Gray's constructive critique of recent trends in national security is holistic, rooting defense issues and prospective answers both in U.S. national security policy, broadly defined, and in the emerging international security environment. Colin S. Gray is professor of international politics and strategic studies at the University of Reading, England, and senior fellow at the National Institute for Public Policy in Fairfax, Virginia. He is the author of seventeen books, including Modern Strategy and Strategy for Chaos: Revolutions in Military Affairs and the Evidence of History.
In the United States, a sheriff is an official in a county or independent city responsible for keeping the peace and enforcing the law. Many sheriffs have the role of a police chief, though some lead agencies with limited law enforcement duties. Sheriffs are also often responsible for managing county jails and security at local government buildings. And inside this amazing book, you'll discover one of the freedom fighters, the author, and how living overseas as a youth and ability to "Fear Not; Do Right" have shaped his ideals and convictions to love America. As the descendant of Pilgrims, he has been forged by hardships, wins, and losses to rise above the challenges and lead from the front, in Law Enforcement and in Politics. Here's a preview of the chapters in this book: Welcome to America Sometimes You Eat the Bear, and Sometimes the Bear Eats You Fame Without Fortune It's Not a Fight Until You Meet Resistance I Ain't Scared... Except of Snakes Be the First to Put Your Shovel in the Ground and the Last to Take it Out Those Who Mind Don't Matter and Those Who Matter Don't Mind And more! You will be inspired by the patriotism, failures, wins, and hard work of the author as you follow along with the stories of one of the most well-known American Sheriffs of our times. What are you waiting for? Get this book RIGHT NOW and discover! You won't be disappointed! I swear!
Do Americans live in a liberal capitalist society, where evenhanded competition rules the day, or a society in which big money, private security, and personal relations determine key social outcomes? Vladimir Shlapentokh and Joshua Woods argue that the answer to these questions cannot be found among the conventional models used to describe the nation. Offering a new analytical tool, the authors present a provocative explanation of the nature of contemporary society by comparing its essential characteristics to those of medieval European societies. Their feudal model emphasizes five elements: the weakness of the state and its inability to protect its territory, guarantee the security of its citizens, and enforce laws; conflicts and collusions between and within organizations that involve corruption and other forms of illegal or semilegal actions; the dominance of personal relations in political and economic life; the prevalence of an elitist ideology; and the use of private agents and organizations for the provision of safety and security. Feudal America urges readers to suspend their forward-thinking and futurist orientations, question linear notions of social and historical progression, and look for explanations of contemporary social problems in medieval European history.

If the current economic malaise accomplishes nothing else, it should help awaken us all to the realization that our country has been on a path of self-destructive behavior for several decades—a reversal of the progressive path that had made major gains in economic and political equality for a large majority of the U.S. population starting in the 1870s. It is John McDermott’s purpose in this ambitious book to explain why that reversal happened, how society has changed in dramatic ways since the 1960s, and what we can do to reverse this downward spiral. In Part 1 he endeavors to lay out the overall narrative of change from the 1960s to the present, emphasizing how a novel social structure came to be developed around corporate America to form what he calls “corporate society.” Part 2 analyzes what the nature of this corporate society is, how it is a special type of “fabricated” structure, and why it came to dominate society generally, eventually including the government and university systems, which themselves became increasingly corporatized. The aim of Part 3 is to outline a path of reform that can, if all its parts can be integrated sufficiently to be effective, put us on the path to restarting the progressive movement.
