Chief Kessler defends ‘libtards’ rant: ‘Cops are there to clean up the mess’

Raw Story

Embattled Gilberton, Pennsylvania police Chief Mark Kessler told WTXF-TV he had no regrets about the profanity-filled gun video that put his job at risk, while also seemingly arguing against his own department’s capabilities.

“If somebody thinks they can dial 911 and the cops will come and save them that is not correct,” Kessler said in an interview aired Monday. “Cops are there to clean up the mess.”

Kessler is currently serving a 30-day suspension for using local property without permission in a series of videos in which he fires weapons while loudly cursing “libtards.” He has since referred to Democrats as “the most vile creatures in this country” and accused Gilberton City Council members of planning a “kangaroo court” against him.

So this guy is essentially saying that the job of police is to kill 'libtards?' This is what hate radio has done to a large percentage of the country! This guy needs to be dragged away from his police chief job in a strait jacket. He thinks the police are on some kind of holy mission to politically cleanse the country. Holy Moses!
