This date, this month, marks the one year anniversary of the epic fail, crash and burn that is Mark Kessler.
Here is
the latest of his failures. Presumably he is only dragging this out because it might provide some form of benefits to himself and his family while the termination process continues. It's not like anyone is beating a path to his door to employ him in any other capacity, or likely to again, ever. Kessler has literally shot himself in the hand, and figuratively shot himself in the foot, while his foot was in his own mouth.
Kessler has conducted himself in a consistently unprofessional, unethical, inappropriate and uncivil manner that has resulted not only in his job loss, but in leaving his municipality open to law suits. How prophetic when he speaks here of taking off his uniform that he has been defrocked, as it were, as a member of law enforcement.
In the interim of this past year, Kessler has been at the center of a series of increasingly vocal, and subsequently embarrassing epic failures, each one larger than the preceding disaster he has orchestrated. He is left with nothing but his well-deserved notoriety for failure and foulness.
The conduct of Kessler is so excessively unprofessional, that it is being used as an example in law enforcement training on HOW
NOT TO DO THE JOB OF LAW ENFORCEMENT.
Kessler is not alone among law enforcement in the incorrect interpretation of the rights and duties of law enforcement. ONLY our judicial system is permitted to rule on the legitimacy of a law or executive action. ONLY the legislative system is permitted to draft and pass legislation, which then requires the executive branch signatures to be valid, conditional on the decision of the judicial branches of government at all levels.
Anyone attempting to make their own individual determinations in law enforcement are over-reaching their authority and violating the foundational terms and conditions on which that authority is predicated. However at least the law enforcement figures below are conducting themselves in a more professional manner, although they should all still be removed from office in their respective jurisdictions for their failure to enforce the law, or executive orders, unless so directed by the judiciary.
Of course, whether it is Kessler or Arpaio, or any of the rest of these guys, the radical right need to be removed from office for their failure to conduct their respective offices in a professional and responsible manner. Here is another example of how foolish and ridiculous what these people believe:
