Why do some of these guys try so hard to be dickbags?
https://www.rawstory.com/2020/11/michigan-police-deputy-fired-after-depicting-kamala-harris-as-a-watermelon-in-racist-halloween-post/
A part-time deputy at the Oakland County Sheriffs Office in Michigan has been fired after depicting Vice President-elect Kamala Harris as a watermelon in a racist Halloween Facebook post.
Local news station WXYZ reports that the deputy on Halloween posted a photo of several carved pumpkins that were meant to depict President Donald Trump, Vice President Mike Pence, and President-elect Joe Biden.
When it came to Harris, however, the deputy inserted a carved watermelon instead of a pumpkin.

A WHITE woman, I am beginning to think a large majority of law enforcement are racists.
