The Boston Police Patrolmen's Association (BPPA), one of the largest police unions in the city, has refused to back Democrat Sen. Elizabeth Warren [aka Fauxcahontas] in her bid for re-election this year.
The union represents over 1,500 cops and has opted to endorse Warren's Republican challenger, Geoff Diehl, instead. Last week they announced that they could not endorse Warren due to her comments rebuking the criminal justice system.
In her obvious attempt at relevancy, and a probable bid for the 2020 presidential nomination, she referred to law enforcement as "racist," hoping to win the support of the far left. But the BPPA told the Boston Herald that her remarks prove that she doesn't "stand" with law enforcement.
Referring to Diehl, the union's president Mike Leary said, "We hope (this endorsement) helps get him elected. We stand with the people who stand with us and Elizabeth Warren has made derogatory comments to law enforcement and we can't stand with her for that."
Leary said, in a statement released by the Diehl campaign, that when it came to public safety and the issues important to law enforcement officers, the difference between the two candidates was sufficiently defined.
"The choice is very clear," Leary said, "we have an advocate who will fight for Boston police . . . as opposed to someone who undermines our efforts to keep neighborhoods safe."
In August, Warren called the criminal justice system racist "from front to back" during a Q & A session hosted by Rep. Cedric Richmond (D-La.) at Dillard University in New Orleans.
"The hard truth about our criminal justice system, it's racist," the make-believe Native American senator said. "And when I say our system, I mean all the way. I mean front to back . . . on the front end--what you declare to be illegal--[and] on how you enforce it, on who gets arrested."
Warren's bull crap triggered widespread condemnation from town hall attendees, elected officials, and of course, the police.
But take heart--she really doesn't believe her own words any more than she believes she actually is a Native American. She simply wants to go for the big one in 2020 and being hatefully outrageous is her strategy.
Her remarks even caused Attorney General Jeff Sessions to censure her, as the Republican Party appears to be growing a set of balls.
"Earlier this week, a U.S. Senator called our justice system 'racist,'" Sessions said. "This is a slander of every law officer and every prosecutor in America. And, frankly, I think it is an insult to their families and to the crime victims they have helped to face their attacker."
Fauxcahontas' remarks about race and the criminal justice system comes at a time when there is an increase in the level of violence perpetrated against police officers. The National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund, noted that the local law enforcement personnel killed in the line of duty throughout the first six months of 2018 was 12 percent higher than the number recorded for the same time frame last year.
Accepting the union's endorsement, Diehl said that law enforcement needs a strong voice in Congress. "They need a senator who will have their back not throw them under the bus to score political points.," Diehl said. "Warren calls them racists. I call them heroes."
So you have to wonder, who does Warren really support?
And who is the real racist? The cops who protect all citizens regardless of race, or a woman using a fake claim of being a Native American [and refusing to take a DNA test] to land a job that a real Native American might have gotten?
