Full title: Minneapolis police officer Mohamed Noor’s training was “fast tracked” so the city could “add diversity” to its police force

Mohamed Noor is the Minneapolis police officer who recently shot and killed an innocent, unarmed, law abiding woman named Justine Damond, after Damond had called 911 to report that she had heard a possible sexual assault taking place near her home.

Officer Moor has not offered any explanation for his actions. He is not claiming self defense.

Instead, officer Noor is asking that his privacy be respected, as if somehow, it’s a violation of privacy for people to want to know why a police officer shot and killed an innocent, unarmed person.

Anyway, the Star Tribune is now reporting that officer Noor’s police training had been “fast tracked” so the city could “add diversity” to its police force.

I’ve got a better idea: instead of “fast tracking” and “diversity,” let’s have “high standards” and “excellence.”

The liberals who support affirmative action, and especially those who support affirmative action in the hiring of police officers, ought to rethink their support of this ridiculous policy.

“Excellence” should always take precedence over “diversity.”

Was officer Noor ever required to fire his service pistol without hearing protection? If so, he'd have immediately learned how horribly dangerous that would have been for him and his partner. There's a huge difference between the relatively dull "thud" one hears when using proper hearing protection and the very loud, painful "crack" that's experienced without it. I doubt he'd have done what he did if he knew how loud and painful the report would be.

Yet another example which proves that Democrats are quite willing to sacrifice innocent lives on the altar of political correctness.
