Asian American sheriff in California vows to protect immigrants from Trump policies
Marco della Cava
USA TODAY

This story has been updated to reflect that Paul Miyamoto is the first metro-area sheriff of Asian American sin California history.

SAN FRANCISCO – The first Asian American sheriff of a large California county walks over to a closet inside his City Hall office to stow some equipment, then takes a seat behind a large desk. He extends his arms, fingers interlaced.

“So,” Sheriff Paul Miyamoto says casually as if to imply that he isn’t sure what all the fuss is about. “What would you like to know?”

On the one hand, as the son of a Japanese American father and a Chinese American mother and the husband of a Filipino American wife, Miyamoto is well aware his election represents is likely to prove inspirational to a new generation of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders, a broad group often referred to by the acronym AAPI.

The first Asian American sheriff of a large California county ...

Has this USA Today "reporter" or his editor(s) ever looked at a map of California showing its counties?



Without actually looking up the area of each county, from the map above I think San Francisco County is CA's smallest. It's basically the City of San Francisco. As cince SF has both a sheriff's department and a police department, SFSD is not very large (LA County SD is >20X SFSD).

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Asians are present in many varieties all over CA.

A Korean Am. gal and a Vietnamese gal, are GOP candidates to win my House seat (the one foolish Dana Rohrabacher lost to a dem.)

The county GOP org. is behind the Korean- Am. gal, who has served ably as a county Supervisor.

Go to college campuses and find a lot of Asians.

Go look at homeles, and find virtually no Asians.

Asian American sheriff promises to defy federal immigration policies. Can't wait to hear what SCOTUS has to say.
