How get the Chief the authority to wear a “Star?”

This is a travesty. I agree. But the libs have to put the blame on somebody else and throw them under the bus, even if it is one of their own.

Youd have thought the Von Trapp family had sprayed a bunch of local mosques with M-249 fire.

No he needs to spend life in prison. Send him home and he’ll just get fitted for a suicide vest at some point.

Firing the Chief of Police was a good start. They need to keep on going down the line to the immediate supervisor of the shooter. The Mayor should be gone as well.
The shooter should still be convicted of murder and jailed.
Perhaps his partner will be induced to flip and testify for the prosecution.

Plus, the police chief is openly gay and married her ‘partner’ in 2013.
You see, this is why she was promoted to police chief. The EXACT SAME REASON why a Somalian refugee was hired as a cop. And not the ulta liberal mayor is throwing the police chief under the bus.
Political correctness, when faced with reality, eats its own.

You won’t get an argument from me. We shouldn’t be allowed to vote, we shouldn’t be in the military and we shouldn’t run the police.
But I think it is a fine this creep resigned. We have too few resignations going on in this country; people do outrageous things in office and still retain their jobs. This has got to stop and I’m thrilled this bitch - on vacation in summer when most violent crime occurs - is out of a job.
To: PROCON
I don’t disagree with you in general; though I believe that there may be the occasional female who can effectively fill that role.
The problem here seems to be that Harteau actually blamed Noor (”no justification for officer Mohamed Noors decision to shoot Damond.”)
And that went against the Mayor’s squishy, political ‘party line’.

The mayor just now said she’s overcome barriers. More like, been promoted for PC reasons in front of better qualified people.
