Wow. A twofer. War against women and gays in one stroke.
David Eich.... thats all ill say
Any chance she got hired because she was gay? I bet they don’t think that’s wrong.
Yeap, this one might get messy. Hopefully the locals will get past the “gender” identification and see that their newly elected mayor may not be on the up and up.
When the backlash comes, it’s gonna be a bitch. You cannot force homosexuality as “normal behavior” on decent society without a backlash occurring.
So a shady mayor fires a police chief due to the chief uncovering a shady appointment. Certainly that’s never happened before and must be because of who the chief sleeps with.
Police chiefs, and effectively their officers, serve at the pleasure of the Mayor or City Council for exactly the purpose of POLITICAL control of law enforcement.
If ya don't like it, your best option is to get rid of the police and return Constitutional law enforcement to you duly elected County Sheriff.
As a flip side of the argument: Could it be that the police chief is wasting time and money conducting investigations in an attempt to bring down the mayor? I cannot imagine anyone here being surprised that someone one mayor hired might have a suspended driver’s license. With Sheriff “I hate Palin” Dupnick (or something like that) running the county sheriff’s office for 50+ years, I suspect the corruption runs deeper than someone who - gasp! - drove with a suspended license!
If the lesbian police chief finds evidence of bribes, etc...then get back to me. Although I’d bet where I live, bribes are standard...
I doubt this will stand, for several reasons.
1) Unless being a lesbian interfered with her job performance, most people would consider this firing unfair. Lots of homosexuals work hard, never make a mess or raise a fuss, so deserve what they have earned.
2) The radical left, and the homosexual mob, do not really care about individuals. But they intensely care about public opinion. So had he just fired her, nobody would likely care. But firing her, and then saying it was because of her being a lesbian is going to set off a whiny and angry firestorm.
3) That there seems to be some scandal involved, as the real reason she was fired, is the icing on the cake.

I have been all over the internet, searching for the political affilitation of this mayor. Not one story mentions it, so it is safe to assume he is a Democrat.
The chief does not have the ability to undercut her boss with impunity. This would fall under the heading of insubordination. She should have been fired.
Let's hope the mayor has some asbestos underpants, as they will be coming for him.
"Councilman Jarret Taylor says Moore was fired because she would not sign written reprimands before consulting her attorney"
If the woman has done a decent job as police chief in protecting the citizenry and seeing that the law is upheld, and hasn’t militated about her lesbianism in any official capacity, there is not a legitimate reason to dismiss her, in my opinion.
Sounds to me as if the new mayor has more problems than she does, and should be the one removed himself. She has a twenty year record unblemished up to now. He comes into office and it hits the fan.
I don’t care one whit about who she sleeps with. Does she do a good job? Was she fired for (legal) activities she does on her own time? If so, then she has been wronged.
