This sheriff's deputy who murdered Casey Goodson is a real piece of work.

[Ohiogal]

How has he been allowed to work in law enforcement at all with these beliefs? Why has he not been instantly terminated?

He claims to be a Baptist minister and that his faith allows him to use force as a cop.

From the Columbus Dispatch

“Every now and then you have to actually use force,” Meade said in the video, called “Connecting with the Community."

“We don’t go around looking for it because we don’t have to," he said. "Plenty of people out there will give you that opportunity ..."

He says that people say Jesus said to turn the other cheek, but he responds by telling them to read the Bible. He said Jesus isn't talking about physically getting slapped in the side of the face.

"There is release in our job that, righteously, we can actually have a use of force," Meade said.

“I hunt people," he said, garnering laughter. "It’s a great job, I love it."

1. Fire his ass.

So sick of christofascists putting their hatred of minorities above the law of the land and actually the teachings of the Bible. Not that people have to be Bible thumpers, but those that do use it this way are liars and hypocrites and Jesus would shun them.

2. Why is it whenever conservative Christians encounter something in the Bible they don't like

they say it's "metaphorical" or whatever? But the parts they do approve of must be obeyed literally and without question.

It's a rhetorical question, I know. I still wanted to say it out loud.

5. This

3. This Franklin Co Deputy is NOT the one fired by Columbus PD on 12/28/20.

This Deputy killed Goodson on. 4 December 2020.


2 AA men shot by 2 different law enforcement agencies in the city of Columbus in the same 3 weeks.

There are problems in this city

6. I know.

He SHOULD be fired, IMO I wondered in my post why he hasn’t been fired.

I am sure this happens in more cities than Columbus .... it’s just mind boggling how it is allowed to continue.

7. I know you got it girlfriend, but IMO, these 2 killings can & will get merged in minds as time goes

Last night, 4am London time, the BBC World Service to the United States broadcast, tells the globe we have multiple cop killings. I'm hearing this at 11pm, Ohio time, listening to the Mayors' voice.


In 2016, not all that far away from me and where Goodson was killed, Henry Green was killed by CPD.

It becomes mind blurring.

8. It's sickening.

Yep you're right, it just keeps on happening over and over until it all becomes a blur.

I don't know too much about Ginther, is he doing anything about any of this? Was he mayor when Henry Green was shot? The Dispatch won't let me view your link.
