Were these inactive police under his command? His claim that he will go after the vandals may be a reaction to the criticism he faced. If a group were attempting to pull down a MLK statue, would the police just stand by? Only leftists are given room to destroy. The Jefferson Memorial is now under attack.
His officers stood by while criminal activity was taking place and they did nothing. If Antifa types aren’t subject to the same law as the rest of us, then no one is subject to law at all.
Let this “Sheriff” know how you feel:
