Michigan police deputy fired after depicting Kamala Harris as a watermelon in racist post

Why do some of these guys try so hard to be dickbags?

A part-time deputy at the Oakland County Sheriff’s 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.
