Richmond police chief forced out as protests continue
2020-06-17
[WASHINGTONEXAMINER] The mayor of Richmond, Virginia, announced that he asked the city’s police chief to resign amid the ongoing protests
.
Mayor Levar Stoney said at a Tuesday news conference that Richmond Police Chief William Smith has resigned and that Maj. William "Jody" Blackwell is now the interim police chief, according to the Richmond Times-Dispatch.

Stoney called Smith "a good man" and said the now-former chief has "served this city with grace."

"But we are ready to move in a new direction," he added.

The shake-up comes after video emerged over the weekend, showing a police SUV driving through a crowd of demonstrators who blocked its path, although the police said that demonstrators had been attacking the vehicle. It is also two weeks since police controversially fired tear gas at protesters 20 minutes before a city curfew went into effect.

#6  An estimated total of 70–85 million people perished in WWII. It would appear the 'Goy' was well represented in the tragic slaughter.

Think if you will of the outcome for the Jew, had June 6, 1944 Normandy landings been postponed for six months or a year.

#4  Actually, Besoeker you need to learn from Holocaust - if you want to avoid one!

#3  /\ .....were dismissed from holding government jobs.

While I certainly love history, there's little need to revert to 1933 for an example or proof of concept. A quick look at any contemporary US Gov't Civilian Personnel Office or corporate HR department should provide stark testimony.

If your only desire is to pick peaches, you may wish to steer clear of orange groves.

#2  1933
All non-“Aryans” were dismissed from holding government jobs. This regulation applied to public school teachers, university professors, doctors, lawyers, engineers, etc. — all Jews who held government positions of any kind.

#1  Okay, I looked at the photos. Black mayor fires white police chief replaces him with a black police chief.
