BARROW COUNTY, Ga. — A captain with the Barrow County Sheriff’s office has resigned after he came under fire for posting controversial comments on his Facebook page.

The Facebook postings began with talk of high gas prices and goes on to ask “Damocrats, blacks or African-Americans where is the outrage towards your [bigoted word]ed leader.”

It went on to say you “voted this camel jockey into office.” And ends with “I guess you’re too busy helping baby killers, gays, and pot heads.”

The page belongs to Lewis Rusgrove, who identified himself on the page as captain, CID, or Criminal Investigations Department at the Barrow County Sheriff’s office.

Whoa. I’m glad he resigned. If he had been fired they probably would have had to re-hire him at some point.
