Port of Seattle Police Officer and Special Forces Veteran Greg Anderson was removed from his position after his video about police officers abusing their power went viral.
In an update video posted to his Instagram yesterday, Anderson says he has now been terminated from the Port of Seattle Police Department and is on allegedly on administrative leave pending investigation.

He didn't bad mouth the entire industry, watch his video before making anymore inane statements.
Yes he did. “Many officers are trampling on people’s liberties.” That is criticizing the entire industry. And you know it.
“Lets hope the police union represents him well. “
Not happening. They told him refusing to take down the video was insubordination.
“Why did this guy think putting this video online would be a good idea?”
Because he saw it as his duty. Sometimes, even if you shouldn’t, you must. This guy is EXACTLY the kind we need as cops. The folks who have decided to fire him are EXACTLY the kind that do not need to be cops.
“May your chains set lightly.”
Amen.
“You are forgetting, his jury wont be made of cops and police supervisors. It will be made of those he honored with his speech.”
Of all the truth you spoke, that’s probably the most important part.
BTTT
Fired for bad mouthing company. Michelle & Obama weren’t fired. I have been. It seems there is a double standard.
Mafia is the predator of capitalism. They are a cost to capitalists. They are not productive. They are corruption.
The family is not your employer. Not if you are an American.
He stood with the American people against it’s enemies.
You think he should have stayed silent, like a fellow gangster covering for a theft.
“Here is the link to his GoFundMe page if anyone else is interested in donating a few bucks.”
He’s picked up about $30K just since I was there last to make my small contribution.
Repeating the link just because:

First the lawsuit and proper termination of the a-hole that caused his.
I’m wondering why nobody else offers him a job.
There are probably plenty of departments who would be happy to have someone like him on board.
In my opinion we lost the country in the whiskey rebellion.
Should be acknowledged at the state of the union
Once again living in the weeds to deliberately miss the point. So since we both agree you have no logical argument, we can move on. We both understand that when you do what this guy did, right or wrong in your criticism, you get fired. It’s how it works.
I don’t think he should have stayed silent. I think he should have understood there would be a consequence. Sonny broke the rule, got his family into a war that got him killed. Our Founders broke the rule, started a war that would have gotten them executed if they’d lost. He broke the rule, his fate was sealed.
Havent been right since the minute police were invented as a job title.....Thanks for your Half cent opinion, asshole.
Elected office gets a bit more random. Not so cut and dry, cause you’ve got so many bosses, some of whom are insane.
What I said was absolutely true. And your need to insult and swear shows you know you have no facts to back you. So you agree.
He is a cop. That is not an industry. The thin blue line runs deeper than any union. These cops can kill you if they want and get off with a slap on the hand.
That’s a little more serious than a unionized furniture maker.
Oh dude come on. You really don’t think law enforcement is an industry? They have their own union, their own conventions, suppliers, revenue and budget targets. It’s totally an industry.
