18. Police backing a felon over prosecutor
Sun Jan 5, 2025, 06:29 PM
Sunday

I have police in my family, they voted the felon. Police Unions backed him.

Whatever respect I had for police, I 100% loss. Now with Ohio charging for police videos, that we already paid for. With floriduh giving a 25-foot zone, because of officer safety.
