Missouri officer on leave over inflammatory video - CNN.com

A Missouri police officer involved in maintaining security in troubled Ferguson was put on administrative leave Friday after a video surfaced showing him railing about the Supreme Court, Muslims, and his past -- and perhaps, he said, his future -- as "a killer."

The officer, Dan Page of the St. Louis County Police Department, became something of a familiar face to many earlier this month when video showed him pushing back CNN's Don Lemon and others in a group in Ferguson. At the time, CNN was reporting on the large-scale and at times violent protests calling for the arrest of a white Ferguson police officer who shot and killed African-American teenager Michael Brown.

But it's another video that led St. Louis County police officials to say they had removed Page from his post and had started a process that will likely include the department's internal affairs unit investigating and a psychological evaluation of the officer...

..In his rambling remarks on the video, he talks about what he describes as a draft replacement for the U.S. Constitution, the "four sodomites on the Supreme Court," and a visit to Kenya "to our undocumented President's home." He refers to Barack Obama as "that illegal alien who claims to be our President."

Page frequently references violence, including nine combat tours in the Army, during which he did "my fair share of killing."

Speaking about Muslims, he says pointedly: "They will kill you."

On domestic disputes, he opines: "You don't like each other that much, just kill each other and get it over with. Problem solved. Get it done."

On urban violence, he predicts that "when the inner cities start to ignite, people are going to start killing people they don't like."

And lastly, Page says, "I personally believe the Lord Jesus Christ is my savior, but I'm also a killer. I've killed a lot and, if I need to, I will kill a whole bunch more."

"If you don't want to get killed, don't show up in front of me."

Here is another video:




Notice at the CNN site that the logo for "The New Survivalist" is also there - I assume, because that dude is one of the oathkeepers and also from Missouri.

Note also that this officer was speaking at an Oathkeeper's function. Oathkeepers claims to be non-political and non-partisan, but obviously, this is not the case.


Now, if you feel like hurting yourself a little bit, you can listen to his entire rant here:





Gee, and this guy was on the ground in Ferguson? Wow.

The dude also claims that he believes in Jesus Christ as his personal Lord and Saviour, and then he spews this venom. It's like whackos think that saying that as a disclaimer is their "get out of Jail" card, or something. Geez.


The CNN video mentions another rabidly racist cop also suspended for his remarks as well. You will see it at the video and at the 3:19 video in this OP.

Nope. No problem with cops and racism. Nope, none at all.
Notice that I didn't say "white cops". I said "cops", because I am just as sure you will find some black, brown or red cops out there who are also racist. Only, I am not sure if it is proportional....

What they also don't emphasize...is this guy is a long time very high ranking Army officer, was the 2nd highest ranking Army member in the African Command, is a Vietnam veteran.....and when he talks about how he has killed people and is a "killer"....its pretty obvious he is talking about his time in war zones.

But hey, its a chance to smear cops so why bother with context. Lets ban ALL military vets from being cops too, right?

You excuse any bad behavior that comes with a badge.
