HB 3751 – Non-citizens who are legally allowed to work in the United States will now be eligible to apply to become police officers.

This seems like a bad idea to me, but I can't explain exactly why. Just seems like the people enforcing the law should also be a citizen of the country they're enforcing the law in.

They’re bound by the same laws they will enforce (probably more so than most other cops), so I don’t have a problem with it.
