Title: Pic of cop in Confederate undies turns into a bad career move
Post by: sprite75 on June 27, 2015, 12:06:01 AM
Yeah, a cop learned the hard way (http://www.postandcourier.com/article/20150625/PC16/150629550/north-charleston-officer-fired-for-posing-in-rebel-flag-underwear) that posting a pic of himself wearing Confederate undies was a really bad career move.

Quote
A North Charleston police officer has been fired because he posted a photo of himself wearing Confederate flag boxer shorts.

Shannon Dildine, who was a sergeant and with the force since 1996, was sent a letter Wednesday from Police Chief Eddie Driggers detailing why the department let him go.

He was terminated because it was determined that the posting would make him incapable of effectively serving as a North Charleston officer.

“On Tuesday ... the City learned that you posted on Facebook a photograph in which you were wearing only a pair of boxer shorts emblazoned with the image of the Confederate flag,” Driggers wrote. “Your posting in this manner led to you being publicly identified as a North Charleston Police officer and associated both you and the Department with an image that symbolizes hate and oppression to a significant portion of the citizens we are sworn to serve.”


And for some strange reason, I thought of someone on this board right away...at least he would not be caught dead in Confederate undies.

No worries. There will be enough people who will support him through gofundme or something  :lookingup:
