Ohio Cop: If Democrats Call For Help, I Won’t Respond

Dayton’s CBS affiliate reports:

Clark County Sheriff’s Office Lieutenant John Rodgers has worked at the Clark County Sheriff’s Office for more than 20 years and currently serves as the Road Patrol Supervisor, but recent posts have him, and the department, in hot water. Rodgers made posts that he would factor in a person’s voting record, in regard to the presidential race, when responding to calls. Some of those posts have been shared more than 250,000 times.

In a series of posts shown on News Center 7 at 5:00, Rodgers said things like “I am sorry. If you support the Democrat Party I will not help you” and “The problem is that I know which of you supports the Democratic Party and I will not help you survive the end of days.” Another post indicated people would need to “provide proof of who you voted for” if they asked Rodgers for help.

Read the full article. Rodgers is blaming “sleeping medication” for the posts and claims he doesn’t remember making them. Yeah.
