Fair is fair. A racist is a racist and they definitely shouldn't be in office at any level.

Behavior of this kind is unacceptable

Cindy LeRoux (Effingham , 2020-07-23)

People should be treated with common courtesy especially from their elected leaders. Her behavior underminds the entire city council.

Tressa Hartley (Myrtle Beach, 2020-07-23)

#427

She fouls the people of the city of Darlington and us residents of Darlington county. She does not represent the people of this area.

Kimberly Hill (Hartsville’s , 2020-07-23)

Racism should NOT be tolerated from any race!!!!!!!!!! This is blatant racism and she doesn’t even care and feels she would never be removed!

Missy Glancy (Hartsville, 2020-07-23)

#429

I think she needs to go

Stacy Tindal (Darlington , 2020-07-23)

#435

We don't need this kind of attitude, the policeman was only doing his job.

Debbie Collins (Darlington, S.C., 2020-07-23)

#437

I’m signing this because if we let government and politicians act the way they want and racially motivated rants and thoughts, it keeps racism at the front! ALL people should be held accountable for their actions, ESPECIALLY ELECTED OFFICIALS AND GOVERNMENT! She needs to pay!

Temple Melton (Florence, 2020-07-23)

You do not talk to a police officer in that manner.

Connie Hancock (Hartsville, 2020-07-23)

Tired of this hostility

William Watts (Hartsville, 2020-07-23)

#469

I don’t think the way she treated that officer was right. It would have been a racial issue if the roles were reversed. They should be held accountable as well.

Brittany Hall (Bishopville, 2020-07-23)

Immoral behavior must be fought at every turn.

Corey Wallace (Darlington, 2020-07-23)

#471

I’m signing because I work in Darlington and I believe she will be a disruption if she stays on council. Council members should be held to a high standard of how they treat constituents, especially police officers performing a duty in an honorable way.

Barbara Shirley (Florence, SC, 2020-07-23)

She needs to go !!!!

Faye Weatherford (Hartsville, 2020-07-23)

This conduct is unbecoming of of leader.

Laura Gregory (Blandford, 2020-07-23)

#482

She is racist and can not use good judgement in deciding on matters to represent the people in her district.

Angela Jordan (Hartsville , 2020-07-23)

#485

She has a reputation of hate towards white people and I do not think she deserves to hold any type of office in Darlington County or City. Another white employee was fired because of a personal comment and she should be fired also for her actions towards a city official .

Pat Folsom (Darlington, 2020-07-23)

#487

What mrs Bauccus said was very racist! I am offended and I’m sick of racism. She needs to be held accountable for her racist behavior

The council woman is representing a paid position. She knew she was wrong about the ticket and she turned it into a racial issue by trying to use her position. The officer was doing his job. She should be fired .

Gloria White (Hartsville , 2020-07-23)

#503

This type of behavior or language should be torarated. Right is right and wrong is wrong. As adults we should be settling examples.

Patricia Byrd (Hartsville , 2020-07-23)

Tammy Robinson (Darlington, 2020-07-23)

#525

I'm signing this because out was a racist remark she made and I worked with the City of Darlington for twenty (20) years. I have had to deal with Sheila Baccuss numerous times and she has made racial remarks to me in my office. She is in a public office and this is uncalled for. She should be dismissed of her duties immediately.

Darlene Jackson (Darlington, 2020-07-23)

#528

She was wrong

Tina Jordan (Darlington, 2020-07-23)

Christine Barber (Darlington, 2020-07-23)

Because of her remarks to the officer

Raymond Street (Darlington , 2020-07-23)

Council person used racial slurs against city employee underage supervision

William Jeffords (Darlington , 2020-07-23)

Because she needs to be held for her actions if it was another race she would already be fired

Grady Parrish (Darlington , 2020-07-23)

#550

I am so upset that a person that happened to be a Darlington Police Officer was purposely harassed and taunted by a elected Darlington City Council member Sheila Baccus. While, the Officer was trying to maintain safety on our streets. The language, threats and accusations made towards Officer Bryant by Ms Baccus are inexcusable. I am asking Governor McMaster to release her of her Council Duties effective immediately. Thank you .

Angela Cason (Darlington, 2020-07-23)

#551

She needs to be held accountable for her actions. She needs to be respectful to everyone when holding any kind of office.

Allisom Bennett (Hartsville , 2020-07-23)

#553

I'm signing because I've seen her and the former mayors racist behavior, both are unacceptable and unfit for any further relations with the public.

Bobby Oneill (Hartsville , 2020-07-23)

#556

She represents our county. We don't need that kind of representative in a County office. She needs to go.

Elizabeth Smith (Hartsville, 2020-07-23)

#557

Mrs. Baccus lacks the skill of leadership which was proven by her failure to acknowledge her wrongdoing and inappropriate exchange of words with a law enforcement officer. An elected official should never use their position as a reason or excuse to break the law. Her inability to treat officers of all colors with respect is disgusting and she should not be representing our city.

Amanda Goins (Darlington, 2020-07-23)

#558

She is racist made racist remarks that doesn’t need to be taking place in 2020

Darren Byrd (Darlington, 2020-07-23)

#559

Michelle Jones (Darlingron, 2020-07-23)

#561

Racism is wrong in all colors NOT JUST when it’s whites against blacks. So is misconduct in office as well as abuse of power AND ALL OVER A PARKING TICKET!! She’s a disgrace to the human race as well as to the office she holds!! Fire her now! We the people are tired of this!! It should not be okay to accept this kind of behavior from anyone!!

Gye Stevens (Hartsville , 2020-07-23)

#562

What this “Lady” did was clearly racism and racism of any kind should not be permitted, this officer was doing nothing but his job!!! If this person is not dismissed from her position, it will show that there are double standards and this should not be permitted.

Debora James (Darlington, 2020-07-23)

#564

Race should not matter. If you break the law you pay the price. Disrespect is what is wrong with her.

Cheryl Bunch (Darlington , 2020-07-23)

#565

She displayed pure racism and that has no.place in or on the city council.

Gale Hoffman (Lamar, 2020-07-23)

#567

I have family living in Darlington and am totally disgusted by this council woman’s behavior!
She should be removed from office immediately !

Mary Hoover (Batesburg, 2020-07-23)

#573

Because it was very racist unprofessional behavior and she should be removed immediately.

Charlene Moore (Bishopville, 2020-07-23)

#574

It is wrong of her to treat an officer of the law in such a rude disrespectful racist way!

Jenn Johnson (Myrtle beach, 2020-07-23)

#575

She has no respect for law or law enforcement and is using her position to do what pleases her and not representing the people who elected her.

Bg Wilkes (Lamar, 2020-07-23)

#578

She shouldn't have said anything that racist. If a white person had done the same thing they would be gone
Plus how can we trust someone on office to be fair

Wanda Smothers (Darlington , 2020-07-23)

If you are going to hold all people accountable
for whatever they say then she should be held to the same standard.

james white (Darlington, 2020-07-23)

#591

She needs to understand that we the citizens expect our City Council to what is right. This woman even refuses to Apologize for her actions

Crystal Melton (Darlington , 2020-07-23)

#592

Ann Crowley (Hartsville, 2020-07-23)

#597

There is no place in our sweet little town for such blatant racism. Being verbally abusive to such a kind and dedicated Officer is inexcusable. Ms. Baccus has grossly abused her position of power on our City Council by acting as if she is above the Law. Please remove her from her duties immediately.

Patricia Tindal (Darlington, 2020-07-23)

#599

Sheila Baccus should be releaved from her duties on our Darlington city council. She is a racist and doesn't represent our citizens in the best interest. She is not teaching our young people to have respect for the Police Officers as well as their elders. Governor, please make the right decision for the citizens of Darlington County, LET SHEILA BACCUS GO!!!

Barbara Dixon (Hartsville, 2020-07-23)
