'He has made me feel unsafe': Ohio sheriff's Kamala Harris Facebook post draws complaints - eviltoast

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.

    Can confirm. I’ve seen Trump and even fucking Confederate flags on people’s houses. Always in the shittiest parts of town too. Imagine supporting a bunch of traitor losers from a country you’re not even from, who you share no heritage with.

      I remember going south Ontario somewhere for my wife’s sister’s wedding. It was an American Southern plantation style house and property, complete with servant quarters, stables, etc. built soon after the end of the civil war. I looked it up while I was there, and sure enough that’s where I learned that many of the American traitors were allowed amnesty in Canada, which is a disgrace.

      Just being in that property during that wedding made me sick
