A Tacoma, Washington, police officer and two of his colleagues are under investigation for commenting on “defund police” protesters after one video went viral and got 8.5 million hits on Tik Tok.
Officer Sam Lopez said in the video:
So I come in this morning and was informed there’s going to be a protest to defund the police. Well, that’s fine, I like protests. Except for they requested a police presence, you know, for their safety, at the defund the police event. I shit you not.

Making us follow our own rules.
Mistake to do it in uni but still good.
Knew that was going to happen. When you are at work in uniform you are a Target. So I would expect the Lefties who are in charge there will hammer him, unfortunately. All Policeneed to understand that they will get backing from their jobs.
My first question too. There is nothing to investigate here, but this is in a place where Democrats run. Anyone hard working patriotic American needs to wake up and get out of their socialist hell holes ASAP
Millions of hits.
A perfect example of lefties shutting down opposing voices.
They’re investigating the cold hard reality of what the Officer said. His statement is counter to their liberal lunacy, and this investigation will be difficult for them.
I guarantee they will ultimately use their go-to and label the Officer a racist.
Well, let’s call out those going after the officer as the bigots they are. Lopez is obviously an Hispanic name, so they are targeting one of our brown brothers.
They want to play this game? Let’s get the Hispanics to march trhough their neighborhoods calling them out as bigots.
Don Lemon will say it is racist and all the MSM will run with that.
This is where the force does not show up.
Leave them hanging by their diapers and make some underground contacts with real Americans to pay them a visit
Agreed. This new generation of brown shirts doesn't like dissent or having their hypocrisy pointed out any more than the brown shirts associated with last century's National Socialists Worker's Party did...
Obviously a white-hispanic and RACIST!/sarc
If uniformed LEOs can prostrate themselves at protests, then LEOs can dish online.
Somebody give La Raza a call.
The second I saw the video last week I knew he would get in trouble. Surprised if took this long.
La Raza can have a brown lives matter rally and riot.
Aren’t Brown folks entitled to flat screen TVs as well?
But I guess you won't "go viral" if you're not in uniform. So stupid.
Of course, if you kneel or prostrate yourself before a mob while you are in uniform, that’s OK. You are only allowed to think the way they want you to think
I don’t see what he said that was in the least bit objectionable.
Plenty of cops have faced internal backlash for kneeling. My point is that making videos expressing political views or otherwise insulting or making a spectacle of yourself is usually explicitly forbidden by department rules. Why even open yourself to the punishment?
