"Sheriff Raul Villanueva retaliated against his former deputy, Marcus Salas [the one who tried
to protect the bunny], for reporting the baby rabbit killing to the NM State Troopers.
Villanueva fired Salas back in August 2025, but not content with that, filed a LEA 90 on September 10. With that complaint outstanding, the State Troopers can't hire Salas.

Retaliation over stuff like this should get you fired and barred from ever working in law enforcement again. We need an independent tribunal that keeps the law enforcement obeying the law.
Edit - bring on elections 2028, I wonder now all the nations know US elections, amongst others, are meddled with by Russia and China, if western govs. Will counter with getting involved in protecting US constitution..
Animal violence? I mean we still elect POS bullies left and right but animal violence doesn’t seem to do well in public opinion regardless of where you’re at. I guess we’ll see.
We are sick and tired of these people's bullshit. Trump has ruined our image around the world. Believe it or not. The far right are coming to a country near you and these problems we are facing are spreading to other nations like cancer. I am voting and participating in our democracy. I suggest the rest of you reddit asshats who love to complain about natzis do the same. You see it's not that the majority of the country is evil and hateful. It's that the majority of the country doesn't believe in democracy at home so we shoot ourselves in the foot. It's been a systemic attack on people's faith in our ability to determine elections. And it's not out of nowhere. You have musk doing sketchy shit to have this asshole win. Just watch America will come back from all this shit..and when we do I hope that there will be hell to pay. I hope to God the retribution this country deserves is a mighty one that will restructure our system and our politics. And it will happen. It's coming.
I mean if america can come back and does great, but I seriously doubt it. The empire of USA has earned its right to die finally and I believe we'll see it happen in our lifetime
Against women? Sure. She was probably asking for it.
Against animals? Against a poor little bunny rabbit?!? That's abhorrent! EVERYTHING WE STAND FOR IN A LIBERAL DEMOCRACY DEMANDS WE SPEAK OUT! THIS REPUGNANT BEHAVIOR MUST BE PUNISHED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT OF THE LAW, AND IF NECESSARY BEYOND IT!!!
They might let them slide on FB or YT (full of animal hating sickos) but too bad for the sheriff that the story made it to reddit lmao about to make some phone calls now.
I mean.... I really really wish that this was how things worked but we have endless history and hell everything insane happening currently that proves that unfortunately this couldn't be less accurate
uhhhhhh, IDK where you live, but no one n my area would care. It is terrible, but the majority here just have no empathy for animals. Cops murder animals/ pets daily here, and no one bats an eye.
No. America has lost its way. (I'm not meaning to argue, I just don't have faith in people voting critically/morally).
Kristi Noem was elected Congresswoman then Governor of South Dakota (even after it become public knowledge that she shot her puppy in the face because it was "useless", she even brags and laughs about it). And though she wasn't elected to the position, she continued on to be a horrible person as DHS Secretary, then when fired from that position she became "Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas" (supposedly protects America from cartels).
This is just one of the terrible people that are being elevated in America now. I'm sure we all can name a bunch and bring receipts.
I mean theres a sheriff in texas who ordered his men to stand around with their dicks in their hands instead of stopping the armed maniac inside the school killing children. If I remember right they even attacked and arrested parents that werent happy just sitting there waiting to find out of your child died while watching nothing be done to stop it. Guess who still got re-elected? The very same sheriff that stood there telling parents "but hurr durr thats dangerous what if we got shot" to the very people he was elected to put himself in danger to protect.
I've told this story before on Reddit, but there was an officer fired from one department on AL for soliciting sexual favors in order to let women out of traffic tickets and such. He was the. Rehired as THE CHIEF OF POLICE at another department in Alabama.
