North Carolina Police Chief Fired for Being Politically Incorrect
The New American ^ | 09/19/15 | C. Mitchell Shaw

Posted on 09/20/2015 9:19:05 AM PDT by Enlightened1

Police Chief Mike Halstead in Surf City, North Carolina, was forced to retire after posting a statement to his private Facebook page calling the Black Lives Matter movement "an American born terrorist group." Chief Halstead made the post on September 3, and it came to the attention of Surf City Mayor Zander Guy a few days later. The mayor called an emergency meeting of the town leaders on Tuesday and the town told Halstead that if he did not retire, he would be fired. He retired and took 60 days' severance.

In his post, Halstead said that the issue is not entirely about race — despite the claims of the BlackLivesMatter movement, and prominent black leaders such as Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and Louis Farrakhan. He insisted instead that it is about a war on police brought about in large part by Black Lives Matter and helped along by media coverage and federal policies and statements by President Obama.

Here is the letter,

"Open letter from a Police Chief , this Black Lives Matter group is nothing more than an American born terrorist group brought on by the lie of the hands up don't shoot during the criminal thug Michael Brown incident. The FBI and other Government Law Enforcement groups need to step up and put a stop to this. The Government and blacks would not tolerate the White Supremacist group to march through the streets and call for the murders of a race of people and a group of public servants. I agree there is a race problem in this country. It is not brought on by police officer doing their sworn duty, it is brought on by the government, the President and his cronies Al Sharpton, who is a criminal tax evader (but has the support of our so called President), Jessi Jackson, Eric Holder and that ignorant S.O.B. Farrakhan who should be charged with solicitation for murder, lord knows a white man would be arrested for the same actions of idiot Farakhan. I am sure there are many hard working Black people who will agree with me. I have been a Police Officer for 35 years. I do not judge anyone by the color of their skin, but by there actions. A criminal is a criminal whether a police officer or any other profession. I will not state statistics because black lives matter do not care or believe proven statistics. I put allot of the blame for these cop murders on the media and the way they report police related shootings. There is no need to list or even state the race of a person shot by the police. It is more important to wait for the facts and report those. But and a big but that does not make money for these greedy media a[**] h[***]s. When a black thug is killed by the police they are all over it as is Mr. Barack Obama. However when a police officer white, black or any race is murdered for doing his job the media is short with it's reporting or not at all. When a white person is killed by a black officer you hear nothing. Has our so called President spoke publicly about these murders of police officers by blacks, HELL NO he has not. Step up Mr. President, or step down because we do not need you. Has our Attorney General spoke against these murders, no of course not because she was appointed by Barack Obama. Now let me say this, and this is not a threat but common knowledge. I have instructed my officers to be vigilant, if threatened take appropriate action. If that means shoot a thug, then do it and answer for it while you are still alive not dead. Law Enforcement is fed up with this murderous society who want to take out those who protect and serve. Imagine if all law enforcement shut down for just 1 day. There would be murders, rapes, robberies, you name it. America wake up, all of you black, white, Mexican whatever you need the police, we do not need you. End this Black Lives Matter bull s[**]t and start a movement that all lives matter. As for the New Black Panther movement who wants to kill whites and cops, go for it, we are ready for you. You take one of us and there will be 100 who will step up and end you. This letter is not meant to offend anyone, just the feelings of a man who has spent the last 35 years of his life serving and protecting, for what so a thug can take it or to be treated as a criminal by the very people I swore to protect. Let's get this around folks so maybe our President and the media will get a wake up call. Be safe all of my Brothers and Sisters in blue, not white, black, yellow or brown BLUE."

This police chief was fired for calling Black Lives Matter... a terrorist group.

I bet if he would have said that about the Tea Party,conservatives, Veterans or Constitutionalism..., then the police Chief would be getting a promotion.

Anyone doubt me... Then read this,

http://www.constitution.org/abus/le/miac-strategic-report.pdf

For the record the local police had too retract this 2009 report after it caught so much flack once released in the public.

Good point and thank you for the corrections.

As far as I'm concerned they are the black version of the KKK or Brown Shirts you found in Pre Nazi Germany.

“This place is getting more like the old Soviet Union with each passing day.”

A Russian told me that the Soviet political officers warned the new political officers, (words to the effect), “Try not to offer and opinion on anything. That which is okay to say today may not be okay tomorrow and you have no idea what may get you killed.”

Curious.

Calling Black Live Matter a terrorist group gets one fired, but calling Tea Party patriots terrorists is acceptable.

It is difficult to keep up with all these PC rules and regulations.

George Orwell had it right with "1984." He was only about 30 years off.

Newspeak is all around us. Abortion has become "women's rights"; Criminals are now "behaviorally challenged"; illegal aliens have become "undocumented citizens"; and now the indiscriminate killing of white police officers falls under the euphemistic umbrella of "black lives matter."

The best way to stop it is to confront it head-on.

If you notice, many times when it is confronted, the perpetrators/pushers back down. When they are not pushed, they get away with, become emboldened, and go on to the next conquest.

If there were an outpouring of support -- in person, letters, phone calls and calling out the individual(s) responsible, chances are they would back down.

Just another outrage...

...any dissent from the party line calls for exile. Sound familiar. And the takeover of the clown-negros marches on.

The mayor of the town is a convicted felon, sentenced to 3 years for insurance fraud and embezzlement. The gov. (Jim Martin-demo) pardoned him after 3 months and put him on the statewide Alcohol Beverage Control Commission (this is the idiotic NC setup that buys booze in bulk, warehouses it in Raleigh the capital, and then ships it out to State stores for resale. The profits of the sale are sent to the Commission that then re-distributes to the.... schools in the counties on the % of sales/profit increases. Great system— the counties with the most drunks get the most education money, brilliant). So the governor pardons this criminal (he took premiums for policies, issued them and then kept the premiums— a criminal act).

The mayor is a huge obamaumao demo operative machine pol, who was active in the last criminal governor.. Bev Perdue, who worked in the Gov. Easley admin as part of his illegal machine. This has dem machine politics all over it. Incidentally there are very few blacks in... Surf City.

It’s farcebook posting of his, not a report. Social anti social media. And apparently one cannot have a personal opinion expressed in electronic or any other form.

Not in the age of political correctness. Unless it corresponds with the opinion of those in charge. It began a while before then, but on November 4, 2008 a majority of those that voted said, via their votes, that they wanted to be ruled by a muslim so here we are.

As much as I agree with what this officer had to say, he was foolish to put it out there for others to see. We in this country no longer have the freedom to say things that are true. The so-called “political correctness” crowd has made us afraid to say anything which could be construed as racist, and that covers a hell of a lot of territory.

I find only one thing wrong with your statement, you forgot to add calling CHRISTIANS terrorists is also acceptable just ask Nancy Pelosi.

I’d say Chief Halstead nailed it. Under a Trump presidency, Halstead would get an attaboy, not a putdown.
