Time for Chief Sacco to RESIGN

5 police problems in 13 months...too many chances for the out-of-touch and obsolete chief of police in Medford.

from WHDH:

"The Council on American-Islamic Relations, in a statement, said: “While officer Montalbano has first amendment rights, police should be held to a higher standard. Those whose job it is to protect and serve the entire community, regardless of race or faith, must conduct themselves in a manner that is free of bias."

MEDFORD INFORMATION CENTRAL IS IN 1000% AGREEMENT WITH THAT STATEMENT BY THE COUNCIL ON AMERICAN-ISLAMIC RELATIONS!

Officer Jason Montalbano saw the post on another site and said he took it to target ISIS, but below the mushroom cloud, it reads ‘It’s time we made peace with Islam.’
“My intention to posting it was to support aggressive action against the ISIS terrorist threat,” said Montalbano. “In retrospect, I understand the reference to Islam was overboard and offensive to Muslims and non-Muslims.”

MEDFORD, Mass. (WHDH) - A Medford Police officer is facing discipline after he posted a controversial image online.
Officer Jason Montalbano, an 18-year-old veteran of the department, posted a graphic image of a nuclear explosion along with a message some might believe is insulting to Muslims.
“When I first saw the post on another site, I took it as targeting ISIS. My intention in posting it on my private Facebook page was to support an aggressive military action against the ISIS terrorist threat,” Montalbano said during a news conference.

He has also gotten the attention of the Washington, DC-based Council on Islamic Relations.

 

"You can’t be a neutral officer on the street if you have these ideas about a certain group of people,” Medford Mayor Stephanie M. Burke was quoted by WCVB. “So, it’s not acceptable.”
