an officer threatens to kill the President and loses his job? cry me a river.
the President will obviously be campaigning in Florida till November. our public officials place a certain level of trust into law enforcement. this man would have been able to get closer to the President with his police credentials... with a firearm no less! seems like a very reasonable precaution to take.
also, do the people of florida want a man with this type of judgement policing their streets and making life-and-death decisions on their behalf? i say good riddance.
