He should be suspended for that. Aside from it being wildly inappropriate, as a former Prosecutor, that one comment ruins just about every case I’d have with that idiot.
Unprofessional and wrong.
Sometimes the truth is painful.
And always, political correctness is the act of inserting one’s head into one’s own arse.
Jason Giroir is under investigation by the New Orleans Public Integrity Bureau after a remark was posted on WWLTV.com’s website in response to an article about a rally supporting Martin.
What happened to free speech? It seems to me that there is plenty of evidence to support the policeman's comment. Trayvon was far from a model student, and closer to being a gang member, drug dealer, and racist, according to the evidence in the media.
Why should anybody be punished for stating their opinion, especially with support for their assertions?
I would say that the New Orleans Public Integrity Bureau is anything but. The New Orleans Public Integrity Bureau needs to take a time out and reflect on their own integrity, IMO.
In matters involving race and Blacks it is totally improper to tell the truth.
Only politically correct lies are allowed.
D’oh! Of course, the Nawlins PD isn’t exactly a hotbed of PCness.
I have no problem with what he said....
Yes, I know he is a Police Officer too. They are humans entitled to their opinions.
Some of them may be Replicans, they will want to suspend them for that soon too...
I’ve seen plenty of ‘white’ thugs, in my day, so the use of the term doesn’t seem ‘racial’ at all.
It applies to ‘thugs’, no matter their race/color/creed.

So, this police officer gets suspended for stating an opinion based on facts? (Where is my trash can? I feel the need to puke!)
It’s not smart to make comments like this when your online moniker is something like “worksforNOPD”.
Kind of asks for an internal affairs investigation.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Good one!

Guess we can all say goodbye to free speech.
