Police Chief and Sgt Fired for Tea Party Activities?

Police Chief and Sgt Fired for Tea Party Activities?

From TexasFred by way of Lake Tawakoni Area News

This, if true is disgusting. Evidently these men were fired because of their tea party affiliations. They were exercising their 1st amendment rights to assemble and to speak their mind. They felt drawn to the Tea Party patriots and an idiot mayor decided they had to go for their actions? Fire up the torches boys we got a target in Lake Tawakoni!

Chief Schultz Suspended and Sergeant Becket Fired for being Tea Party Members

On October 20, 2010 Police Chief Jack Schultz was put on 10 days unpaid suspension at which time he will be terminated. This is a man that has served this city for twenty years and acts as a fatherly figure to his community while keeping us safe.

Sergeant John Becket has Proudly & Bravely served his community for over nine years and operates as a protector and referee of the law instead of a small town speed trap cop as the mayor has publicly announced he wants in he new police department.

These are the sole actions of Mayor Pete Yoho and are being done against the will of the majority of the city council.

I trust Fred has done all he can to verify this story, and I can’t find any “Alternate” opinions or stories to dispute this claim. I have done searches for all information about this case or anything related to the firing. Using key words like “Lake Tawakoni+Police Chief+Tea party” you can find some local opinions on the issue.

What I have determined through these searches is:

Lake Tawakoni is suffering through budget issues just like everyone else. Very few online resources point to the PD as the reason for it. The mayor is not very popular and this story is developing quickly. The mayor didn’t think it would garner the attention it has, and the Mayor may soon see why this was a bad idea.

This action by the mayor stinks to high heaven and if the Nations patriots don’t stand up for these cops I say you are cowards and don’t deserve the label of a patriot.

Get the word out on this issue.
