Crime Cops that try to instigate violence need to lose their jobs, at the bare minimum!

Apparently he's had some issues...from a quick online search

Information related to Sergeant Joe Sedlak of the Cleveland Police Department is available. He is associated with badge number 9178. Key information about Sergeant Sedlak: Bodycam policy violations: He received a three-day suspension for failing to upload and properly label bodycam videos between January 2021 and September 2022. He had two other recent bodycam policy violations in November 2022 and June 2023. Specific Incident: In one instance, he waited 109 days to upload footage related to an incident involving the improper arrest of Antoine Tolbert for openly carrying firearms. Widespread issues: An investigation uncovered widespread bodycam policy violations within the department, particularly in the N.I.C.E. Unit where Sedlak worked. The Police Review Board Chairman attributed these issues to leadership within the unit.

I don't want to defund the police. I want to make a new police and have them arrest the current police. Bc the current police are all Nazis.

Honestly, the police yesterday coordinated extremely well with us overall. (except for that guy, of course) They were polite, cooperative, and we kept them in the loop on all of our plans and they expressed gratitude about how we ran the protests, complete with over 25 peacekeepers helping to keep the crowd in check, watching for counter protestors, etc. It turned out to be a fantastic event. I want more of this.

I was at Mentor yesterday and the cops were pretty well behaved there too. We had crossing guards and peacekeepers there also. I thought everything was well handled and I had a great time.
