I live in FL and sadly too many police departments are like Ft Lauderdale. Additionally, too many Floridians are just like the police departments.

The three officers who were fired told the department’s internal investigators they do not hold racist views, according to the Sun Sentinel.

Just pointing that out. I do hope the department takes this as a teachable moment and says, “This is racist. You are racist. Nuff said.”

See? Nothing racist here. This is all just Al Sharpton and Eric Holder ginning up their divisive race baiting. Dumbocrats are the REAL RACISTS!

The officers also allegedly shared a video, which the New Times reported had been created by Alvarez.

The mock movie trailer for “The Hoods” used the word “niggers” and showed a dog attacking a black man. The video also depicted President Obama with gold teeth and included Ku Klux Klan imagery.

Oh. Nevermind.

Despicable, sorry excuses for humans is what they are and I wish all of them a painful existence and even a more painful death when the time comes, They deserve no less

it’s Obama’s fault for being divisive. Why? Shut up, that’s why.

I don’t get why they made this video in the first place? Why would any grown man make this video? It’s not like they’re going to make a movie or a show. Just randomly making a racist video to screw up their careers.

This is a difficult state to live in. I am amazed that Obama carried Florida twice. I can tell you that in 2012 that the Republican Party in the State of Florida were shocked by the results. They were not surprised that they lost the entire Presidential election as much as they were shocked by losing Florida. They thought they were going win by a minimum of 6 to 7 points and possibly 10 points. I guess they did a lot of focus group polling on police officers.

FL and TX. Embarrassing to the nation. A handful of other states can be included in this bottom-of-the-bucket list.

Yeah but come on guys, Brown didn’t actually have his “hands up” so there’s no such thing as racism anymore. This is just liberal propaganda to distract us from Benghazi!

I hope they take a hard look at these Cop’s “other” victims…all the Black folks they arrested, many now sitting in jail, that did nothing other than be Black. Shit canning the Cop’s is not enough. The entire leadership structure in that Police Force tolerated this.

Yes it is…and what state, might I ask, are you from? I’d like to Google it…while my sorry little Floridian ass has nothing else to do…and see how perfect your Cops are. I’m so sure I’ll not find a single example of excess or abuse. Right?

Yeah, BREAKING NEWS:

Racists lie about their own racism. They say that they are not racists, in justification for their racist actions and speech.

Racists lie!!

Yes, they should.

Also, and not to take away from your point, but the Fort Lauderdale Police Chief is black.

Here in San Francisco there is an ongoing investigation into the police department’s bigoted officers who sent texts about African Americans. To date one has been fired, and the rest will be. California, the blue state, and San Francisco the blue city. It happens anywhere.

I guess the cops failed to get the memo - we’re a post-racial society now.

Don’t buy into the “Floriduh” thing. It’s OK down here and despite the image given it by media sharpshooting…is not all that different than most other States. I’d love it if just one of the “well what do you expect…its Floridah” ass holes would have the stones to tell me what State they are from. I don’t imagine it would take long to collect a few links about their mighty fine Police departments. Fuck 'em. Let them shovel snow. Go get a mojito and some stone crab my friend…let the perfect ones chip the fucking ice off their windshields.
