To be fair it says his name a grand total of 1 time on that webpage, and it's a link that says "Who is Mohamed Noor" off to the side and mentioned 0 times in the article. But, yeah, this will be an explosive case.

He's Muslim, I give him 80/20.

It's amazing how a shitty off the shelf GoPro can survive being strapped to a snowboarder's helmet as they tumble thousands of feet down a mountain yet police body cameras and dashcams can't even be turned on or even if they are turned on manage to not capture video because of a malfunction.

It's like things work when you want them to record, and they don't work when you'd rather them not record.

LOL, white privilege knows no bounds, even from beyond the grave.

[michigancat]

To be fair, the police chief was a woman.

Guess they lowered the bar to fulfill diversity requirements.

Last year, Mayor Betsy Hodges posted a note about Noor, lauding his hiring as a “wonderful sign” and shining example of community-oriented policing. She wrote:

    “I want to take a moment to recognize Officer Mohamed Noor, the newest Somali officer in the Minneapolis Police Department. Officer Noor has been assigned to the 5th Precinct, where his arrival has been highly celebrated, particularly by the Somali community in and around Karmel Mall. The community even hosted a meet and greet event (see pics) to welcome him. A wonderful sign of building trust and community policing at work.”

 


Lowered standards not just for Minneapolis but the entire country. 

[Rage Against the McKee]

I don't think most police departments would need to lower standards for a Somali refugee to get a job with them. They barely have any standards to begin with.

Good read from the Eagle:

Starting out at 20k to handle the scum of the earth???? 

Also, I don't know many in SEK who would meet those job standards.

[Dugout DickStone]

The job standards of not being a criminal can be pretty rigorous

[Rage Against the McKee]

Yeah, I think there are probably plenty of non-criminals in SEK that have a high school diploma or GED. There are a lot of alcoholics there, though. That probably makes things a little harder.

[SdK]

Yeah. I'd imagine my rehab stints would prohibit me from joining the police force. I couldn't join the military because of them.

[slackcat]

Yeah, I think there are probably plenty of non-criminals in SEK that have a high school diploma or GED. There are a lot of alcoholics and meth heads there, though. That probably makes things a little harder.

and the ones left are powertrippin' assholes.  So there you have it, I'm the only one qualified to be a cop.

[Dugout DickStone]

Good luck in your new career
