To: Mr. James Pasco, Executive Director of National Fraternal Order of Police
Rescind Trump Nomination
I respectfully request that the National Fraternal Order of Police rescind their endorsement of Donald Trump for the role of 2016 President.
Why is this important?
While I respect that the National Fraternity of Police Officers, the largest union of peace officers in the United States, believes an endorsement of Trump's Presidency is a move to protect the interests and safety of our nation's peace officers, openly endorsing a candidate that espouses divisive language is a poor choice for maintaining good relationships between the troubled departments and their communities of color. Instead, such a decision will cause even greater proof of division between the African-American and Latino communities and the men and women who are to protect and serve those communities. The purposeful lack of neutrality on the part of NFOP in this heated political climate reflects poorly upon our peace keepers; to remedy this, I ask the NFOP to rescind their nomination of Donald Trump as a show of good faith to the people they protect and serve. To do so would truly be making America great again.
