    Oh, you’re on a sleep medication that interferes with your capacity for self-control? Sounds like you shouldn’t be in a high-stress job with lots of responsibility and power.

    Taking drugs that impacts judgement and results in irrational actions sounds like a good reason to not be allowed access to firearms, much less placed in a position of power or authority.

    Dude is from Springfield, Ohio. His life has been actively made worse by Trump and his supporters constantly tormenting his town, calling in bomb threats, showing up and harassing people, etc. And he is STILL licking the boot and hating on Dems for no f**king reason. This cop, at the very least, is certainly a bastard, and a stupid one at that.

      Hes a long term buddy of the chief deputy, so that did it for him. The chief said he’s known him for 40 years and doesn’t think this outburst will impact his policing.

      So instead of getting reprimanded in any real sense or getting fired, he got a strongly worded letter and had to make a public apology that let him blame it all on Ambien.

    Take away this man’s service weapon. He can’t protect anybody and is a danger to his community.

    Oh man, the Rosanne Barr defense. Crazy you’d pick that when a lady richer than you tried it and failed.
