ADIOS ART ... NO DEJES QUE LA PUERTA TE GOLPE EN EL CULO AL SALIR

Houston Police Chief Art Acevedo leaving to become Miami's top cop

By Howie Katz

Art Acevedo, Houston's police chief for the past 4 and 1/2  following the death of George Floydyears, is known nationally for marching with, kneeling with and hugging BLM protesters

 

 

 

Acevedo was about to be fired as Austin's chief when Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner hied him as chief. 

I can list any number of instances showing he was a poor excuse for a police chief, but I'll only mention two.

During a hurried press briefing Acevedo, who never passed up a photo-op, shot his big mouth off without knowing the fact behind the infamous Harding Street raid.  

Then there was the march with the BLM protesters that made him famous.  All sorts of praise has been heaped on him for that.  However, since BLM is leading the war on the police, Acevedo not only stabbed his own cops in the back, but all law enforcement officers in the US.

Speaking about taking his new job, Acevedo said: "There's a lot of pain in this nation. Unless we take the time to feel the pain, process that pain, acknowledge that pain of communities of color that are disproportionately impacted by bad policing, we will never get beyond the summer of 2020." 

That sounds like Acevedo missed his calling.  He should have been a social worker.  And by "bad policing" he must mean enforcing the law in communities where there is a culture of crime.  And the victims of those crimes are people of color.

And here is what Acevedo told Miami's cops: "I love cops. I love good cops. And guess what? The communities that need you most are disproportionate communities of color and poor communities - including poor white communities.  I'm here to tell you when you do the right thing, I will lose my job before I sell you out." ... Yeah, just like his Houston cops.

Acevedo won't be missed.  Houston's gain is Miami's loss.

Adios Art. Don't let the door hit you in the ass as you leave.
