So, what, taking a knee is the right of a black quarterback but wearing a timely Halloween costume is somehow wrong? Let's check the replay...

Ahh, right, no policies were violated, so the officer won't be punished. Just abject apologies for someone having a different take on the matter. Love these snowflake generators...

Free speech for me but not for thee.

Obviously the Chief does not support free speech!

What crap. I’ll bet if he mocked Trump there would be no blow back. Political correctness run amok—the constitution be damned.

Have we lost all sense of humour? Society can not laugh at itself anymore? without someone whipping out a piece or going bonkers?

The officer in hot water is Antonio Gutierrez -- who wore a Kaepernick jersey with a "Will stand for food" sign ... while sporting an afro wig and a fake nose in an effort to make fun of the QB.

It's kinda clever. Good for Officer Gutierrez. What the heck makes Colin Kaepernick so special that he is above being mocked and criticized?!

On point and well deserved ridicule. Wish I could buy Officer Gutierrez a beer.

Chief Garcia is a PC squish, the officer broke no policy and he was off duty.

“Antonio Gutierrez”? Well then, he should have a “get out of PC jail free” card by virtue of his ethnicity. Oh wait though, he “offended” another member of a “protected class”, so therefore he is now a “white Hispanic.”

I think I’m going to wear out my quotation mark key as well as my sanity if this PC BS keeps up much longer.

It was on his own time. He wasn’t in uniform. And you’d have to know him to know who was under that makeup. Even the punchline was tame.

Amazed the chief felt the need to say anything. Even more amazed that anyone would take genuine offense.

Antonio Gutierrez wore his Halloween costume on his off-duty hours, whereas Colin Kaepernick did his protesting while in uniform, and working.

They are kidding with this headline I hope. Really? We can’t make fun of an anti American millionaire?

No apology necessary. You have the right to be offended as well as offensive.

I've heard that during apartheid a black man being abused by a young white boy was not allowed to tell the lad off or be at all rude. I wondered how that kind of racism could be allowed to happen among a supposedly liberalized society.

Now we see a black football player insulting cops, and a cop at a Halloween party is in trouble for poking some fun at him. So I guess I see how it can happen.

Its just the elephant in the room...the absurdity we are all supposed to agree with or the busy bodies who think they are better than everyone else will descend on us I suppose.

This Chief is a putz and is having some bad weeks.

RENO — A UNR Police officer joked about shooting a graduate student and former football player during a peaceful traffic stop, leading the department to place him on paid leave during an investigation.

UNR released video captured by an officer’s body camera late Wednesday after a complaint from the black student, later identified as former defensive tackle Kevin McReynolds.

Two white officers pulled over the car he was riding in with several other students. One officer says, “I’m glad you’re not fighting, you’re too big,” and everyone laughs. The other officer, who is now on leave, then says, “Right, I’m like, I’m just going to shoot him if this goes sideways.” The group stops laughing.
