Regrettably, Mecklenburg County, NC has a political hack as sheriff. He has issued new policies for his deputies regarding laws he will enforce and laws he will not enforce.
Here is an example:
McFadden’s new policy prohibits his deputies from stopping people for driving with revoked licenses, or expired insurance or burned-out headlights or brake lights. McFadden believes these are not safety items. Can you imagine allowing people to drive after a judge has revoked their license. Or following behind a car at 65mph without brake lights.
Why is a sheriff allowed to pick which laws to enforce???? His sworn duty is to enforce the laws. Period!
Of course, his stated reason is “racial justice!” and collapsing from pressure brought upon by a pollical group called “Forward Justice.” According to this group, Blacks are more likely to be stopped for revoked licenses, expired insurance and defective safety devices on their cars. McFadden’s logic (if any) is terribly flawed. Headlights and brake lights are important safety features on a car, same with valid driver’s incenses. Insurance coverage is the law for NC drivers. In 2020 there were 247,214 car crashes in NC. What about the rights of people in those accidents injured by others without insurance.
McFadden is not entitled to pick and choose laws to enforce. Period!!!!
Sheriff Garry McFadden is a political hack, bowing to the Black community that voted him into office. And- his policies are very dangerous to all the people of Mecklenburg County.
