Mich. Cop Brandished Confederate Flag at Anti-Trump Protest
Because flying the treason flag shows your patriotism.
An off-duty cop in Michigan drove up to an anti-Donald Trump rally and taunted protesters with a Confederate flag strapped to his truck — before guzzling a Bud Light, according to a local report.
The brazen stunt on Friday prompted an internal investigation with Traverse City Police Department after dozens of witnesses inundated police brass with complaints identifying the law man as Officer Michael Peters, according to the Record-Eagle.
Police Chief Jeff O’Brien confirms he suspended Peters pending the internal probe after he was photographed attending the “Love Trump Hates” rally with a Confederate flag.
Peters is an 18-year veteran of the police force in northern Michigan.
