The U.S. Department of Justice asked Ferguson Police Chief Thomas Jackson on Friday to prohibit police officers from wearing “I am Darren Wilson” bracelets while on duty in Ferguson.
Christy Lopez, a deputy chief in the Civil Rights Division, told Jackson in a letter that residents had photos of officers, from unknown local agencies, wearing the bracelets.
“We are keenly aware of the importance of individual expression of opinions, even those that some find offensive, insensitive, or harmful,” Lopez said in the letter. However, she continued, “these bracelets reinforce the very ‘us versus them’ mentality that many residents of Ferguson believe exists.”
This is at least the second letter from Lopez to Jackson this week. The first, dated Tuesday, urged Jackson to enforce department policies requiring officers to wear nametags.

The WDC crowd sure is pushy aren’t they? The dept of injustice is full of criminals and criminal co-conspirators.
Agreed. Not appropriate for uniform.

Go **** YOURSELF, DOJ
Why is the DO”J” not arresting Holder for Fast&Furious?
Why is the DO”J” protecting EVERY beheading Moslem
(past and future) in America?
Is there some way of verifying if Lopez is in the division excoriated by a Federal Judge for egregious criminal behavior, and violations of civil rights, and "making up" evidence? while investigating "violations" in New Orleans?
Aside from that, what is the DOJ authority to dictate ANYTHING that a local jurisdiction in a sovereign state may or may not wear?
What would (could) the criminal DOJ morons do if they are told to go p*** up a rope?
Fe-fe, fi-fi, fo-fo, fum

If the LEO’s wanted to wear a shirt plastered with: ‘We support the gentle giant’....or ‘We love unarmed teenagers’....or ‘Bill Clinton like cigars also’ those would be okay. This is just Barry’s brownshirt goons pullin’ more of their commie crappola and where it is gonna end no one knows.
Have the parents apologized to the shopkeeper yet?
Didn’t think so.
Is Christy afraid for the police — that her feral friends will too easily identify which ones to murder?
Because?
Not being allowed to wear the bracelets is a tacit statement in agreement with the feral criminal hood community: That Darren Wilson engaged in criminal behavior, and has already been found guilty.
The African tribal primitive concept of "justice" has no place in an American city!
If they spent as much time spying on “real” domestic terrorists as they did on their citizens there would be very few terrorists in the U. S. Instead of the mind boggling number we have now...
There is no Dept. of Justice.
free speech, like the looters. go pound it racist doj.
Looks like the DOJ is the real enemy of the people.
urban black community’s version of a “good boy/gentle giant”.
at odds w/ the rest of the country.
I was just thinking about that, I remembered hearing about it on some New Orleans talk radio show. I just googled her name and New Orleans, but only came up with about 4 results, talking about her “award-winning” work. I seem to recall someone on the radio show talking about leaked documents, etc.

Baloney. It’s just a dress code thing,not a political statement.
It’s only while on duty.
The military has dress codes. That’s the way it is.
