An Ohio sheriff who threatened local supporters of Vice President Kamala Harris is doubling down on his dangerous rhetoric, insisting that people need to “accept responsibility” for their political leanings.
Portage County Sheriff Bruce Zuchowski took to Facebook on Tuesday to elaborate on his controversial remarks that spurred the sudden, protesting resignation of a county commissioner from the local Republican committee.
“As the Chief Law Enforcement Officer of Portage County, I have sworn to protect ALL citizens of my County. Recently, I placed a post on my personal facebook page that may have been a little misinterpreted??” Zuchowski wrote on his official page.
“I … as the elected sheriff, do have a First Amendment right as do all citizens. If the citizens of Portage County want to elect an individual who has supported open borders (which I’ve personally visited Twice!) and neglected to enforce the laws of our Country … then that is their prerogative,” Zuchowski continued. “With elections, there are consequences. That being said … I believe that those who vote for individuals with liberal policies have to accept responsibility for their actions! I am a Law Man … Not a Politician!”

Why would an Ohio sheriff need to visit the US border?
Not a politician my ass.
(Twice!)
Dude makes the border sound like a restaurant.
The Restauraunt at the End of the Country
The cows there BEGGED me to eat them!
It is! I also go on the border a couple times every year! https://www.ontheborder.com/locations/
To pick up some road salt from Windsor, Ontario, maybe? To see the majestic Niagara Falls from the nicer side?
The US has a few thousand miles of land borders, and there are some neat places to visit along them.
I’m not at all sure where this gentleman went or why.
Considering everything we know about this guy and the context in which he mentions it, I don’t think these were casual family vacations hiking along the Rio Grande. But I guess it’s possible.
Believe it or not, we do have an international border in Ohio. You’re out having a lovely time fishing around Put-in-Bay and the next thing you know, the Coast Guard shows up demanding to see your passport since you drifted into Canadian water half an hour ago.
Well shoot. I guess the joke’s on me then.
Thanks for pointing that out.
