Assistant chief of police, Anita Najiy, created a bone of contention between the Miami Police Department and the Fraternal Order of Police President, Javier Ortiz, after she refused to hold her hand over her heart for the Pledge of Allegiance during a recent promotional ceremony.
Ortiz became livid in seeing Najiy refuse to honor the Pledge, stating that she failed to exhibit courtesy and etiquette that “must be exercised when wearing a law enforcement uniform.”
“If you’re not pledging allegiance to the United States, my question is what country are you pledging allegiance to?” Ortiz asks. “Anyone who isn’t offended by that is not American, because when you become a U.S. citizen, you pledge allegiance to the US.”
Ortiz also states that Najiy’s disrepect comes from her Muslim belief, but that normal “protections” or exemptions generally given in the name of religious freedom and speech doesn´t apply to those in police uniform because “you’re supposed to be neutral.”
MOVE TO PAGE 2:
The Muslim should not be working in any government, state or federal position
Why are any of these things in government or head of anything in this country. Fire the people that hired her and then fire her.
Yep! It’s not the same when it comes to Christiens.
Are we still in the United States?
Remove her from office, if she can’t honor the pledge.
How did it get that job to begin with. Doesn’t it have to take an oath.
Political Correctness is (“SURRENDER without Resistance”), “The camel’s nose is in the tent” more will follow
She does not deserve this job if that is how she feel Is she even a US citizen????
Deport
Then she can’t be a.cop
