Ohio Sheriff Suggests Collecting Addresses Of Kamala Harris Supporters

An Ohio sheriff is being accused of bullying his constituents after a social media post suggesting people send him the addresses of citizens with Kamala Harris yard signs.

Portage County Sheriff Bruce Zuchowski apparently made a Facebook post on Friday , pondering how things might be different should Harris be elected in November.

Zuchowski, who is running for reelection ,  suggested that people write down all the addresses of the people who had her signs in their yards! so that when the Illegal human Locust (which she supports!) Need places to live...Well already have the addresses of the their New families...who supported their arrival!

Zuchowskis post seemed to reference the issues currently facing Springfield, Ohio, about 200 miles away.

Tensions in the roughly 60,000-person city have been amped up over the past week after former President Donald Trump falsely claimed that legal immigrants from Haiti were eating cats and dogs.

Since then, Springfield residents have been subjected to bomb threats and general threats of violence that closed schools and government offices.

Many people in Portage County were shocked by Zuchowskis social media rhetoric, and some have filed complaints with the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), various state and federal agencies, as well as members of Congress, according to the Portager.

Portage County Commissioner Tony Badalamenti, who, like Zuchowski, is a Republican, was so angered by the post that he resigned from the countys Republican Central Committee, saying in a Facebook video that this is not the leadership I want to be part of. 

He added: [Zuchowski] posted that we should all copy down the addresses of the people that display political signs which are different from our beliefs. It scares people. Its called bullying, from the highest law enforcement official in Portage County.

HuffPost reached out to Zuchowski for comment, but he did not immediately respond, nor has he commented publicly after limiting the comments on his post, according to Cleveland NBC affiliate WKYC .
