The actions of the sheriff's department and Graham police department were despicable and uncalled for on the last day of early voting.
What was a peaceful march to the polls for some in the group to vote and a stop at the courthouse where a Confederate statue still disgraced our city, those agencies defended up in the people, including small children, elderly and some in wheelchairs with ... force.
The confrontation was planned in advance as officers were dressed in camo, and wearing masks. One even stole a small generator/battery that powered a (public address) system. And thanks to these disgraceful actions we have made national news as a racist city and county suppressing voters. And the trouble with that is that it is true.
Law enforcement agencies are sworn to uphold the law for all people which clearly they did not. A sad, sad day in Graham, NC.
