It seems that hurtful and hateful are both GOP characteristics

"Hurtful"?   Taking the life of someone else.

"Hateful"?  Desecrating a memorial to that person.

From  KJZZ -

Scottsdale detectives have found probable cause to file charges against Paradise Valley Town Councilman Paul Dembow for theft, according to police.

Dembow was allegedly caught on camera stealing a cross from a memorial made for a man killed after being struck by a car in 2015. 

The car was driven by then-Vice Mayor Dembow’s daughter, who was never charged with a crime because the act was ruled an accident.

While I suspected that he was a GOPer (being from PV and that contemptuous of human life and civil society), I couldn't prove it.  Then I found this - 

According to the website of the Maricopa County Recorder, he was a Republican Precinct Committeeman as of 6/4/3021, elected to that position in 2020.

.He's up for reelection in 2022.

Dear PV: 

Don't vote for him.

For the record, I am NOT accusing Paul Dembow of killing someone.  I DO want to see if he skates on this matter (which would be Scottsdale PD tanking the case or him receiving a light or no sentence if he's convicted), though, because of his position.
