The letters obtained by the Akron Beacon Journal, part of the USA TODAY Network, show people's concern over the tone of the Facebook post by Portage County Sheriff Bruce Zuchowski

At least 59 Ohio residents have complained to the state's attorney general over posts made by an Ohio sheriff suggesting that people should keep track of homeowners who have signs supporting Democrat Kamala Harris for president.

Bruce Zuchowski, the sheriff for Portage County just southeast of Cleveland, posted the suggestion to his social media account on Sept. 13, when he talked about Harris’ campaign and border policies.

Some people said they were angry, accusing Zuchowski of voter intimidation and racism. Others, including people who live in Portage County, said the sheriff’s post made them afraid.

    In the US, sheriffs are elected officials, i.e. they can't be fired.

    He has since doubled-down on that bullshit by stating:

    With elections, there are consequences. That being said…I believe that those who vote for individuals with liberal policies have to accept responsibility for their actions!

    In other words, he knows that he's instigating riots and genocide, and he's not going to apologize for it.

    Responsibility for actions? Coming from Republicans?! Headed by the biggest baby no responsibility taking motherfucker Trump. Thousands of covid dead and he says, "it is what it is." It's times like this you can pop on some Bob Marley and be comforted by his words. Fuck you sheriff!

    WTF... I really want to live in a world where people in power are at least afraid to say things like that publicly.

    What he originally wrote:

    "When people ask me…What's gonna happen if the Flip - Flopping, Laughing Hyena Wins?? I say…write down all the addresses of the people who had her signs in their yards," Zuchowski wrote in the Facebook post. "Sooo…when the Illegal human "Locust" (which she supports!) Need places to live…We'll already have the addresses of their New families…who supported their arrival!"

    Fascists should be identified and added to the map so we can avoid them for safety. https://magatmap.com

    Guy, fellow Canadian here. When the Confederacy fell apart they all ran away to us. And we fucking took them, ffs. Jefferson Davis lived out his treacherous life in Toronto. There are redneck, Confederate flag waving racists throughout the Canadian borders. I've even seen pro Trump flags up here in Canada. We've been infected by these fucks for a long time

    I would say put some Kamala Walz signs in his yard to fuck with him, but he seems like the kind of guy to shoot you for using the end of his driveway to make a 3 point turn so...

    Doxx all of the cops.

    It is literally that simple. Them being vulnerable at their homes should be required for that job.

    Everyone knew where the heroes of the Iliad lived. If they want to be tough guy heroes let us know where you live, officer.

    Everybody knew where the sheriff and deputies lived in Mayberry.
