Jonesville's Chief of Police loses job after making racist comments on social media
KNOE ^

Posted on 07/20/2016 6:33:18 AM PDT by TigerClaws

JONESVILLE, La. (KNOE 8 News) - Former Chief of Police Skylar Dore pleaded his case with citizens of Jonesville, but many of them didn't want to hear it..

"I'm sorry, but you should have thought about it before you even hit those keys," says Sharon Stevenson, a resident of Jonesville.

Dore is referring to the racist remarks Dore made on Facebook about President Obama, criticizing his handling of the police shootings in Dallas and Baton rouge

"It hurt. I'm going to be honest. That brought tears to me because then I saw some of the racial comments coming up," says Stevenson.

Others voiced their concerns about Dore's racist remarks, but not all of them felt the same.

"He's a damn good cop," says Bill Bullock, a resident of Jonesville. "He's exceptionally proficient and has good credentials."

Bullock says he knows Dore personally and says his mistake should be forgiven.

Laronda Bowman says she's a Christian and has already forgiven Dore, but says he shouldn't be excused from what he did.

"Maybe he needs this time to think about what you should do and say, if the opportunity is presented again."

In his post, Doré directed his remarks to President Barack Obama, and said, “Hey Mr. (expletive) president when are you going to grow a (expletive) pair. And tell it like it is. These are terrorist. That have declared (expletive) war on my brother. (White police officers) enough is enough. How many police officers have to die trying to protect the citizens of this country. Any other president would have declared full on war on this group. Since when in our (expletive) history do we stand idle to the ambush murders of law enforcement. It has to STOP NOW!!!!!”

If it were this easy, why isn’t the Racist-in-Chief gone?

Notice that the two individuals who concur that his comments were “racist” are women. Rhetorical question: Is that proportionally representative of the gender who are judging him? It’s always about hurt feelings isn’t it.

Unless what was blacked out had some racist remark, I don’t see anything racist.

Nothing he said was racist, except for the fact he is white. Just being white is a guarantee of racism.

Very stupid post, especially if you are a public official. I wonder if anyone is keeping track of how many people have lost their job becuase of Facebook, Twitter or Instagram post?

He openly criticized Obunga, “The Magic Negro.” This cannot be tolerated in the gulag of Intolerant Liberal Totalitarianism. You knew that...

Facebook, Twitter, and other social media are useless unless you want to show the world pictures of your dogs or your home improvement project. Straying from the noncontroversial is foolish, as the whole world will get to see it. Especially for anyone in the public sector, it is potentially a career ender.

I know it is against FR rules to click on the story but sometimes it helps.

Well, by supporting Black Lives Matter, Obama is doing exactly that.

Let me guess - he’s white.

Sheriff Clarke could say it but he can’t.

You can’t openly discuss black racism in our country.

Contextually, I would guess that the redacted words are “f***ing”. Apparently now, the ‘F’ bomb is racist.

Democrats want to have a “conversation,” as long as they are the only ones doing the talking.

w/o reading complete article, these people that have their feelings hurt will have a nasty wakeup call if the local Police get disbanded.
There is world of hurt feelings and bodies if we get a natpo ( national Police)

They are not looking at long game, then again they do not understand the game, just the rewards of the short game.

LIV are cannon fodder=stupid sheeple
