Why would he lie? He must be expressing his true feelings.

BTW, my mother was a democrat, raised in Arkansas. Racist as they come, so this is not a surprise to me.

If a police officer in my town stated that his job is stomping old white women with short hair and blue eyes, I wouldn't feel very safe.
you could stop cutting your hair..

Why is that the question?

He is/was a police officer.


Now if he was a clerk in a courthouse and he publicly said his job is to destroy evidence that would exonerate a black person who was on trial, YES he should be fired.

If he was a fireman who publicly stated that he would not put out a house fire if the house belonged to a black person, YES he should be fired.

If he was a doctor and publicly stated he would mis-treat a black person to their detriment, YES he should be fired.

Feel free to exchange the word 'black' for any other race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, or any other qualifier. The outcome (being fired) should be the same.

Its highly doubtful that the sheriff is actually racist, since he sounds like a wigger. This is really a "non-issue" that has been made into an issue because people have nothing better to do than complain all the time.


I hate the cops more than pretty much everyone, and I think they are basically the guard for our fascist government. But people who honestly criticize this man are either ignorant, malicious, or flat-out pathetic.

Get a life.

Good riddance, we do not need a cop who spouts the N-word. Maybe he can go on to become a rapper and Obama hierophant, but not a cop.

The fact is that the left is tolerant of this kind of thing, as shown by the lack of response by OP, or any other liberals, to the link I posted about a Seattle cop who uttered a racial slur and kept his job.

Yeah, skin tones and stuff are hard to change. That's why, if I was a Black person living in this 'police officer's' jurisdiction, I would not feel safe.

That's why he should be fired.
