Imagine if he put it on a t-shirt and wore it to the Mall of America

That’s a very good question. To answer your question, yes. It is the town that immediately borders Minneapolis to the west.

I think we all know, and this is shown, what type of “leader ship” these departments will hire

"A Minnesota police chief was forced to apologize..."

NO!. The Minnesota police chief surrendered to the traitorous left.

“More recently, the symbol has been deemed divisive, as its meaning has shifted from one of nonpartisan support to one synonymous with white supremacists”

Deemed by domestic enemies of the USA. Please, nobody has “deemed” it that except them.

He should have just told them to FO. What will his line officers think if the Chief doesn’t back them?

Never apologize in these kinds of cases. Never.

represents men and women in blue standing as a line between law and order.

Leave it to the British to define what the line means. It sounds like you can't have law AND order, you must choose one.

Leaving it to the wokeadoodles to determine policy is suicide.

Ya know, I don’t know much, but I do know that if these morons start telling people to FO!! live on camera, they just might get a wave going doing the same!! But to immediately fold in these situations does NOTHING but empower those assholes!!

[...] as its meaning has shifted from one of nonpartisan support to one synonymous with the far-right.

In the future, any symbol, statement, or even only casual remark not explicitly and vociferously supporting the leftist agenda shall be classified as "synonymous with the far-right," and dealt with accordingly!

Imagine the horror of a police chief who displays a symbol of support for police. So intolerable.

I respect everyone, but I will not let anyone dictate what or who I should or should not support.

I have an "I Support the Blue." tire cover for the Jeep. One day I was filling up when the guy behind me said clearly and loudly...."I DO NOT LIKE YOUR TIRE COVER!", as if he was going to get some support from the folks at the other pumps. Conversation went like this...

"I DON'T LIKE YOUR TIRE COVER!"
"Did you buy it?" I asked.
"No."
"Is it on your vehicle?"
"No."
"Then IDGAF what you like or not like."

The look on his face was awesome, like a bucket of cold water had been poured on him. Everyone else at the pumps laughed out loud.
