Muslim Police in Britain

Britain is considered by a lot of people to be such a wonderful place; it is one of the Great Civilizations. A lot of things were incorporated into this country when the United States was formed, however, Britain should have learned from our history and the Civil Rights movement.

This is disgusting, if you want to be a bigot then turn in your badge. There are things we all have to do that we may not like but we don’t pick and choose who is deserving of protection under the law. What about the non Muslim officers that protected Muslims after 9/11 when some wanted to take out their anger on Muslims or people they perceived as being Muslim. What about those that had to protect people with AIDS in the mid 1980’s when that disease was first diagnosed and some wanted to attack them because of fear.

Just think of the Pandora’s Box that will be opened if this comes to the United States. We, my brothers and sisters in law enforcement, continuously work to keep bigots and haters out of our profession. If this decision to allow an officer to pick and choose who they will protect and help becomes the standard here, as it apparently has in Britain, we will be right back to southern law enforcement prior to the late 60’s, only worse! When I need help I want to be able to dial 911 and have an officer dispatched, I don’t need a bunch of questions about my race, religion, sexual preference, etc before help is sent. I don’t want a catholic cop, or a white cop, or a heterosexual cop, or a male cop, I WANT A COP period/ end of story!!!!!!!!!!

Nearly thirty years ago I took an oath to enforce the law equally with all, without any regard for my personal feelings. If I couldn’t do that, of if I ever get to the point that I can’t in the future then I need to do something else with my life. It’s bad enough that we are getting a version of their healthcare system just as Britain is moving away from it and to a system more like the United States system pre “Obama Care”. If this is allowed to stand, and become the norm, they can keep their bigoted law enforcement on that side of the Atlantic.

THAT’S MY OPINION, WHAT’S YOURS
