| Minneapolis cop accused of implying (knowing) Ellison a terrorist |
| 2007-03-02 |
| A Minneapolis police lieutenant faces an internal investigation into recent comments that fellow officers say implied that U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison is a terrorist. The comments allegedly were made during a required police ethics training class this week by Lt. Bob Kroll, according to Mayor R.T. Rybak. In a highly unusual move, Chief Tim Dolan sent an e-mail to all employees saying the comments were unacceptable and unflattering to the department. Dolan also issued a public apology to Ellison, a Democrat from Minneapolis and the first Muslim elected to Congress. Kroll, an officer with Minneapolis for 18 years and vice president of the Police Federation, denied Thursday that he called Ellison a terrorist or that he even mentioned him by name during the class. Kroll will remain on duty during the internal investigation. But no investigation regarding Ellison's connection to the Muslim terrorist group (and one of his funders CAIR) Ron Edwards, co-chair of the Police Community Relations Council, said the recently promoted lieutenant "has been out of control for a long time ... and he's been rewarded with promotions time and time again." Cause he get's it?? I wrote to Don Shelby at WCCO and asked him when they were going to investgate the Ellison CAIR connection. As you can imagine Shelby never wrote back Chief Tim Dolan issued a public apology to Ellison, a Democrat from Minneapolis and the first Muslim elected to Congress. And in an e-mail to employees, he called Kroll's comments unacceptable. And 9-11 donations were diverted by Quakers to Hamas, not CAIR. Ellison said he was grateful to mayor Rybak and police chief Dolan for "setting the right tone." "The alleged comments don't reflect the diversity of our city, or the warm embracing attitudes of those who live in the Fifth District," he said. "The alleged comments don't reflect the Minneapolis Police Department, who I respect as well." Translation, welcome to Dhimmitude and if you light up a cigar I'll call the cops. |

| #3 Must be. I read Power Line on a regular basis and the Strib, as they call the local fish wrap, sounds like it's written by some folks far to the left of Cindy Nutball. If it's staying in business it must be because some misguided fools are buying their garbage, which means what you said. Oh, and the election of the Muzzy terrorist to Congress. |

| #1 Stand firm Mr. Kroll. The muzzies have not reached the status of overlords of the infidel. Not quite yet. I suspect a muzzie or muzzie sympathizer got this story off the ground. |
