Too bad that Officer was fired for speaking the truth.
He was not fired for speaking the truth. He was fired for speaking the truth in his department uniform, while on duty, in a department vehicle. Had he done that in his home, out of uniform he would be OK
.
Like it or not, every police department I know of has rules against making political statements while representing their respective departments. The unfortunate thing is that he would not have gotten the press that he did if he had made the video from his home.
Then we have the other side of the coin, where the people in charge of the FBI work under the radar to sabotage the elected president of the USA and nothing happens. (YET?)
