Russell Frank Valleau, 61, of Farmington Hills, Michigan, was charged by Oakland County, Michigan Prosecutor Karen D. McDonald with assaulting a mail carrier.
“The defendant was allegedly upset that he had received mail regarding presidential candidate Kamala Harris and allegedly said that he did not want that ‘black b****’ in his mailbox,” according to press release from the Oakland County, Michigan prosecutor’s office said. “He then called the mail carrier a ‘black b****’ and threatened the carrier. The mail carrier used pepper spray to stop the defendant.”

Not putting out a Harris/Walz yard sign was a good move I feel.
I live in a very diverse, quiet, and friendly neighborhood, but I’m still nervous about putting out a Harris/Walz sign.
I don’t understand why anyone puts up a sign for the major presidential candidates. What is the point? People already know who they are. All you’re doing is advertising your position.
NGL it is reassuring and even a bit motivating to see the signs when you’re in a red or purple state.
