Lt. John Rodgers, a 20-year sheriff’s veteran in Clark County, where Springfield is the county seat, made the statements in several posts on Facebook, WHIO-TV reported. In one post, he reportedly wrote: “I am sorry. If you support the Democrat Party I will not help you.” Another said: “The problem is that I know which of you supports the Democratic Party and I will not help you survive the end of days.”
The sheriff’s office said Rodgers, who has commanded the department’s road patrol, would remain on duty, with a written reprimand for violating the department’s social media policy.
When somebody tells you who they are…believe them.
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.
He blames his sleep meds for saying the quiet part out loud.
If he’s that wacked out on drugs maybe he shouldn’t have access to guns.
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.
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
Yeah I would think a criminal defense attorney would be able to do a lot with this situation.
Sleep medication or not it shows a lot of bias in how this person enforces the law
Hey Siri, how do I talk my way out of a social media poat I now regret?
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.
In ambien veritas, or something like that.
The ambien made me racist!
The ambien made me honest!
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.
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.
Can someone please arrest this extremist nutt job?

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
