Four San Francisco police officers are under investigation in connection with racially charged and homophobic text messages, police officials said.

The officers were reassigned last month after federal authorities turned over messages sent to and from former Sgt. Ian Furminger, who was recently convicted of corruption charges, the San Francisco Chronicle reported Saturday.

Hmmm, but Blacks using the N word amongst themselves is ok, right? I think I understand, the deck is stacked, the three card monte came is crooked, Hillary is making the rules, there is one football field longer than the other, and so forth.

There is no such thing as a private text, especially when one of the parties of the texting conversation is under federal investigation.

They get a warrant and those texts can be made public.

In cases like this, I like to identify motives. People always act in ways that they feel will benefit themselves. Here. who’s going to get the benefit?

If you hate the people you have sworn to serve and protect to the point of joking about killing a child because it’s bi-racial, it’s probably time to do that job elsewhere.

Perhaps the day will come when police in ...you name the city...Ferguson, Atlanta, San Francisco...will simply quit en masse. One year later, it will be strictly a war zone a la the former gov’s Terminator flicks.
