Police to Democrats: You Want to Censure Someone? Censure Rep. McKinney

2006-04-05
By

Representative Cynthia McKinney (D-GA) assaulted a Capitol Hill police officer and instead of apologizing and putting the incident to rest, she and her supporters began a smear campaign against the officer and against law enforcement in general, according to Jim Kouri, Vice President of the National Association of Chiefs of Police.

“Rep. McKinney first issued a statement that she supports law enforcement and then she decided to go on the offensive backed by America-hating celebrities Harry Belefonte and Danny Glover. She decided to use the race-card and even accused the Capitol Hill Police Department of using ‘racial profiling,’” claims Kouri.

According to a report from the National Association of Chiefs of Police, in 2005, the nation’s law enforcement agencies reported that 59,373 officers were assaulted during the performance of their duties, and 16,563 of those officers suffered injuries as a result of these attacks. Personal weapons (hands, fists, feet, etc.) were used in  80.1 percent of the attacks. Firearms were used in 3.6 percent, knives or cutting instruments in 1.9 percent. Other dangerous weapons were used in 14.5 percent of the attacks on officers.

Rep. McKinney should have been arrested and handcuffed on the spot. She is not above the law. And her smearing and race-baiting is unconscionable.

Members of congress should be setting an example for the American people instead of punching police officers while they are performing their lawful duties. Rep. McKinney actions and comments should be condemned by all members of Congress including members of her own party.

“The Democrat Party seems hell-bent on censuring someone. Perhaps they should censure Rep. Cynthia McKinney or at least an investigation into her actions by the Ethics Committee is called for,” says Kouri.

The National Association of Chiefs of Police is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit, tax exempt, educational association of command law enforcement officers within the United States, its territories and military forces.

Jim Kouri, CPP is currently fifth vice-president and public information officer for the National Association of Chiefs of Police.

    The issue is not “Did the officer get hurt?” but “Is the Congresscritter immune to the law just because she’s black?” If McKenny had reached ou to stop someone and they hit her, you can bet she’d be screaming assault. And if one of her constituents had blown past security the way she did, that individual would have been in jail in a New York minute.

    McKenny wants someone (anyone!) else to be responsible for her own mistake. She didn’t wear her pin or show ID; she didn’t stop when asked; and she struck an officer in the performance of his duties.

    Suppose, for the sake of argument, that this had been an attempt to test the effectiveness of the Capitol Police to protect their charges? Such testing is common amongst terrorist cells, I understand. Or an actual attempt on the building? McKinney should get down on her knees and thank the good Lord that there are people who put her safety ahead of her convenience; not hitting them and then bearing false witness.

    Which “police” challenged Democrats to censure Rep. McKinney? The author of the piece!

    This article is pathetic deflection, ginned up to push Delay’s sordid meltdown to the back pages.

    I’ve got a challenge for you; publish a picture of the policeman’s “boo boo” so we can all tut-tut and kiss it better.
