Halloween decorations at the home of Mobile County Sheriff Paul Burch are being heavily criticized after a Facebook post featuring the display was shared.

The decorations depict skeleton ICE agents chasing other skeletons dressed in sombreros and Mexican-style ponchos.

Whitney Newman posted the photo saying, "It's hard to put into words how disappointing it is to see our elected sheriff use his own front yard to mock and dehumanize a group of people."

The post received hundreds of reactions and was shared over 250 times.

This is writing, not speaking, anyway but I take it you're former law enforcement, or a cuck, to take offense and call that nonsense.

I take it that you are a democrat and the bottom in all your relationships. Does your boyfriend spank you if you are not a pedantic little fruit?

Show me the front lawn of any other law enforcement officer with Halloween decorations mocking criminals.

What does that have to do with what drooled from your keyboard?

An elected law enforcement official needs to be a lot smarter about using his front lawn to mock criminals, OR needs to have more of a spine to stop his wife from doing so.

Oh. So your boyfriend is a criminal and your do not want him to be mocked or he will spank your fat whinny hinny?

There it is. Hit the nerve. Former law enforcement, cuck, or both.

Thanks. This is an amusing thread. Knickers in a twist and panties in a knot, so to speak.

I think leftists drive around town just looking for something to get offended about.

Just more evidence that the Left has zero sense of humor and must politicize and attack anything that they don’t agree with.

The first thing I saw was skeletons depicting dead ICE Agents.

Even after reading the text, it is clear the Cuban heritage wife's family who came here legally is not the same as illegal immigrants that have no right to be in our country.   The wife is a fool and this is wrong.

Well said. Especially in Halloween season, the attempts at humor are weird. It is freedom of speech. Some speech is inappropriate.

(There are a few inappropriate thoughts on FR. That is Freedom of Speech.)

Be worried in case they actually start running after dark.

The usual leftoid racism for thinking that only Mexicans are illegal aliens, and when they think of illegal aliens they think of Mexicans.

She should have told the press, “It’s an 80/20 issue and we voted for this. Happy Halloween.”

He’d get re-elected no problem.

I agree it's hilarious.

The issue is that it's at a sheriff's house. You'd think the sheriff would be smart enough to keep controversy away from his front doorstep.

IF HER RELATIVES ARE “IMMIGRANTS”

IF THEY CAME HERE ILLEGALLY:

SHE SHOULD HAVE ASSISTED THEM IN GETTING LEGAL STATUS.

NO SYMPATHY IF THEY ARE STILL ILLEGAL.
