It would seem to be a mistake on his part to make his statement in his police vehicle wearing his gear. If you’re going to say something that is not in line with company policy, you’re wise to do it off the clock in street clothes.

“If you’re going to say something that is not in line with company policy...”

So basically the suspension is an admission that respecting the Constitution is not in line with Seattle police company police.

Officer Anderson is now on administrative leave, meaning, he will probably be fired.

Fired by whom? His Chief of Police, the Board of Supervisors, the City Council, the Mayor? Whoever is in charge of a firing should be targeted.

I just sent this to the Port of Seattle Police department though their contact page:

It has been reported that you folks are considering terminating Officer Greg Anderson for his video reminding officers nationwide to respect the Bill of Rights. https://mynorthwest.com/1868478/seattle-cop-respect-bill-of-rights/ Personally, as a veteran myself, I think you guys should be thanking him, and making his video required watching for all your employees. I spent part of my career in the USAF training our folks on the Laws of Armed Combat, what used to be called The Laws of War. And I’ve been watching our police forces militarize for over 50 years. You should be embracing this man, not rejecting his message, and the impression that you’re not embracing his message makes you look really bad to the majority of the people in this country. You need to fix this right away, or stand condemned in front of all of us!

William R. Meyers, MSgt, USAF(Ret.)

I also contributed a fiver to his gofundme page. It’s approaching $220K now. He’s going to need it if they don’t back down.

Here’s the link for the contact page I used:

An avalanche of polite but critical comments on their actions might just help get them squared away, and if not, will make it all to apparent what kind of people are running that department.

None may dare challenge the unlimited powers of the cops. I’m sure there are plenty of bootlickers here on FR who will be defending this decision to fire him.

There were some here that defended the murder of the Australian woman by that immigrant saracen, and some that defended the murder of Daniel Shaver by the gestapo officer that used his own AR-15.

So much for believing in a “Free” Republic. That which is not explicitly allowed, is illegal.
