I don't think it was the donation that got him fired but his comment.
"God bless. Thank you for your courage. Keep your head up. You’ve done nothing wrong. Every rank and file police officer supports you," the message continued. "Don’t be discouraged by actions of the political class of law enforcement leadership."
Thank you for posting that.
I didn't know he had said that.
A police officer who believes that should find a different line of work.

So what? A lieutenant is supposed to be a position of leadership and authority. And he goes and donates to the defense of a young man who not only took the law into his own hands, he went looking to kill someone.
Seems like an appropriate punishment. He should never be allowed to carry a badge and gun again.
I'll say it one more time. You have the right to say or do anything you want on your own time. However, that does not mean your employer can't fire
you if it makes them look bad.
And yet you support ass clown sports players that kneel during the National Anthem and piss on our flag. They make our nation look bad.
You leftists just can't help but fall flat on your faces without putting on display your epic hypocrisy.
No they don't. I've talked to a lot of veterans who tell me they are not at all offended by black men kneeling for the national anthem. It's what they fought and sacrificed their lives for.
You, like the rest of the right wing, have tried to equate the fight for social justice...and the fact that there are two justice systems in this country with disrespect for the flag and veterans.
You're just gobbling up the red meat and pablum your right wing media outlets and politicians are throwing you....further proof you are largely incapable of thinking for yourselves.
I'm a veteran.
I have no problem with athletes or anyone taking a knee during the anthem.
That is one of the purposes of the military. To preserve freedom.
What the people like the one you're replying to are doing is trying to use the military as an excuse to take people's freedom from them.
Speaking as a person who was in the military and am a veteran, the people who have persecuted those who did take a knee are the people who are insulting and spitting on mine and every other American's service to our constitution, our people and our nation.
