Oversight Needed

In connection with my last post:

Looking at the facebook and other social media profiles 
of our local law enforcement here in rural, Southwest
Georgia, it is painfully evident that not one of these 
souls is in any position to be an 'officer of the peace.'


Certainly they aren't in a position to be holding people's

lives in their hands with ultimate authority and loaded
firearms.

The profiles I saw (and mind you, this is only what is
available to the public) were filled with racist commentary,
pro-Trump diatribes against liberals, violent rhetoric, 
conspiracy theories, homophobia, religious extremism, and 
many more disturbing ideas and imagery.
An actual post from local law enforcement officer's facebook page

We all know you can't separate those kinds of feelings 
and positions from your working self, and in high-emotion
situations where people's true nature takes over...this is
a disastrous set-up.

There needs to be a watchdog group for keeping tabs
on those in law enforcement, jailers, security guards,
etc. and make certain they are fit for the job.
(We also have several firefighters with Klan connections/
involvement: The people who decide whether or not to save 
the lives of citizens are probably important to observe, too.)

We need monitoring, documenting, and taking action against 
the prejudicial and unfit behaviors and commentary of those 
who are entrusted to keep us safe. Because just like mass
shooters and other terrorists who leave a trail of warning
signs prior to committing atrocities, cops can be seen 'going'
bad from a mile away. 

If only someone were doing something about it...

Someone out there must be working on this, so if you are 
and need assistance, let us know. And if you are one of 
many groups/individuals currently doing this, let me
know so we can promote where people can find out more 
about their watchmen.

We need to coordinate this information and make it 
known far and wide. The Good Ol' Boys Club is in
need of being shut down. Time IS up.
