Sounds like grounds to challenge any and all of his decisions, including any legal charges he is associated with.
Good thing this man is given a gun and near carte blanch to shoot people he feels threatened by. /s
MAGA: We're sick of all this new age bullshit FUCK YOUR FEELINGS real men are back, we're telling it like it is, no more bullshit Seneca Andrew Tate we're taking over whether you like it or not, don't tread on me civil war 1776
Also MAGA: It doesn't count, I was tired, undo
Sorry sire, the house limit is three do-overs.
Sorry, but those are actual threats. And that fucker gets away with a reprimand?
"I know it will be difficult for the public to trust me, but I will do everything in my power to start mending that trust. I apologize from the bottom of my heart and want to ensure our community I will always serve to the best of my ability and strive to do better. I want to ensure the citizens in our community that I have always treated everyone with dignity and respect no matter our differences and will strive to show them I can do better."
No, you CAN'T do better, you've shown your true colors. If you really want to serve your community, you will step the fuck down.
I call bullshit. It’s an attempt to not only save face, but also to stave off lawsuits.
He should be removed.
His boss should be elected out of office if not. Sheriffs are elected and this is one of those double edged sword situations
"I intend to selectively enforce the law based on my political views" is basically what this guy said. He should not be in a position where he has any authority.
The ambien made me racist!
The ambien made me honest!
Can someone please arrest this extremist nutt job?
[Update]
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/ohio-sheriffs-lieutenant-john-rodgers-wont-help-democrats-apology/
The little b%#@% apologies, all fault of medication apparently. He should really stop working and take care of his health.
Ah yeah, it's always after I pop a Nytol that I start getting fascist thoughts and feel compelled to broadcast them to the world.
But you know, at least the sheriff's office has his back. I know my employer wouldn't tolerate me posting messages about using my job to selectively target our customers based on their political leanings. Which is good for him I suppose.
Whenever I pop some psylocybin I suddenly understand every new age hippie during the summer of 1967. So ya know, maybe it's a similar effect?
Or he's just an asshole
pop some psylocybin
I'm fucking dead
I know which of you supports the Democratic Party and I will not help you survive the end of days.
If he ever decides the “end of days” is in progress, I think it would be safer for Democrats and Republicans not to be around him anyway.
Sounds like he has a substance abuse problem. Maybe he should be locked up for it. That's how the drug war works, right?
If he's that wacked out on drugs maybe he shouldn't have access to guns.
He even looks like a movie character for whom they tried to cast a person that embodies dereliction of duty!
If it makes people feel any better Ohio cops already know who’s a democrat and don’t help us.
Seriously don’t call the cops around here without hiding your entirely legal marijuana
And honestly, fair enough. "End of days" I'll be flat-out robbing the police, not helping them.
In ambien veritas, or something like that.
When somebody tells you who they are...believe them.
What a cowardly excuse
I'm sorry y'all it was the drugs talking.
Hey Siri, how do I talk my way out of a social media poat I now regret?
ACAB
This is the equivalent of "oh it was a joke, stop being sensitive."
Shitty people saying shitty things and getting away with it. 2024s theme.
From what I've heard,the Ambien Walrus usually makes people buy random shit on Amazon at 3AM, not blame all their problems on immigrants.
Looking at the photo... Is he a cartoon character?
No, bad guys in cartoons get what's coming to them.
Weak ass MAGAT excuse and vote the useless mofo out of the Sheriff's office.
"Sheriff's patrol commander" doesn't sound like an elected position unfortunately.
Is the lieutenant's name Mr. Hanky by chance?
He blames his sleep meds for saying the quiet part out loud.
That’s quality taking responsibility right there.
Of course he's not going to help anyone, he's a big toe in a hat!
