Holy crap. This is serious. They sacrificed a unicorn.from the bottom of the department to become the city's first female, first openly gay and first Native American police chief
Female, gay, Indian? That's like a trifecta. They don't even mention that she was probably a single mom too. When single mom doesn't even get mentioned, we are in some pretty rarified air.
That mayor better sew on a pecker, try to assassinate Trump and have HIV if she wants to survive.

It's that simple.
I'm well outside the Twin Cities and not subject to the silly political games that they play, but my understanding is that there has been tension between the police chief and the mayor for quite a while. My guess...when the chief disavowed Noor, she immediately got the resignation request from the mayor for not toeing the Somali diversity line.
My only problem is whatever happened to:
'The investigation is not complete, I understand that the woman had no weapon and that rightfully raises concerns. Those concerns will be answered by a complete impartial investigation conducted by the mean and women of the (enter agency here). Meanwhile I can assure you that the men and women of the Minneapolis PD hold the family of the dead women in their thoughts and prayers and are doing everything possible to ease their burden in this trying time.' (if that is in anyway true)
End result - addressed concerns, let them know concerns would be answered, officer not yet under bus.
There is no need for you or me or his Chief to defend the actions of a man who won't defend them himself. A public employee who won't give a statement about his actions on duty... bring on the bus, bring as many as you like.
A lot has been made of the silence of the usual pro-cop and pro-victim groups as proof of racism. But look at it this way, most of the time cops shoots are legit and the defense of the cop is rational and the advocating for the victim is irrational. Furgesson being the main example. What is racist about LEO organizations not supporting a cop in an inherently bad shoot? Isn't it racist for the groups not coming out to advocate for the unarmed woman.

How long was that in place?
If that is photoshopped they did a helluva job - down to the wires and stanchions visible through the holes on the side of the sign.

What if this whole crusade's a charade?
And behind it all there's a price to be paid
For the blood which we dine
Justified in the name of the holy and the divine…
