Cops say, "If Beyonce wants to honor cop hating Black Panthers, she can find her own security." We agree.

PITTSBURGH —City police officers who believe Beyonce is anti-police are planning to boycott the singer’s May 31 concert at Heinz Field, and the union said it will file a labor complaint if the city forces them to work the secondary employment.

Some police officers are planning to refuse to work the Beyonce concert May 31 at Heinz Field. Pittsburgh’s Action News 4 reporter Marcie Cipriani asked Police Chief Cameron McLay about it on Friday.

  1. I think you need to visit the statues of the Olympic heroes Smith and Carlos on the campus of San Jose State.

    ""In that moment, Tommie Smith, Peter Norman, and John Carlos became the living embodiments of Olympic idealism. Ever since, they have been inspirations to generations of athletes who can only aspire to their example of putting principle before personal interest. It was their misfortune to be far greater human beings than the leaders of the IOC of the day." - Canadian Olympic Committee

    Smith and Carlos were on the right side of history. Racist Avery Brundage was not, like Ronald Reagan, he supported apartheid.

    Smithson always runs to the white. That's the #1 reason he supports Trump - 'white identity politics'.

    The same reason he supported George Zimmerman, and most any white cop that shoots a black. Hey, I hear your man Zimmerman is selling the Trayvon Martin murder weapon, maybe you can get a bid in on it!

    1. I know what their clinched fists meant, at the time. I was there. Reagan was not racist. I supported the court room decision regarding Zimmerman, not him as a person, nor do either you nor I know more about the incident than did the jury. I have no idea who Avery Brundage is. Anyone can write a statement that cleans up after Carlos and Smith, to make them look good . . . . but, again, I was there at the time, and know exactly what that fist symbolized.

    2. I failed to mention that the salute was a Black Power salute and I believe they were suspended from the team for that specific incident.
