That is messed up. Racism can get quite bad.
Understatement of the millennia.
I read the post title and wondered which community it was and it was called usa so I just continued scrolling.
The I thought I should leave a trace of this experience nonetheless so here it was.
This dude sounds like a pretty weak mayor. He is literally the mayor, he can unilaterally appoint a new sheriff and arrest all 30 of the "white town leaders" for interfering with the official duties of the mayor. He has 100% of all official power that a local government has and I'd say at least 60% of the unofficial power, and yet he can't stop <30 people from running amuck?
He is either a collaborator, or so clueless that he should have never been mayor to begin with. Similar to Obama honestly.

This is America, negroes can't arrest whites, that's how it's always been. If he tries anything like that he's going to jail and never coming back out.
There is no racism law in America, does that sound crazy? It is.
Sheriff is an elected position, not appointed.
So the 89% black town can elect a black mayor, but replacing the sheriff was just a bridge to far? Sounds like they have voted for what they want.
Well you have to wait for an election for sheriff to happen. It also sounds like there's some general fuckery happening in that county. Maybe it's a life or death situation to try to unseat the current sheriff. There are a lot of possible reasons why the sheriff may not represent the people's choice.
