5:20Now PlayingA Michigan police officer is under criminal investigation for flying a Confederate flag at an antiTrump rally. Ana Kasparian and Grace Baldridge, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"A Michigan police officer is under a criminal and internal investigation after he was spotted driving a pickup truck toting a Confederate flag during a political rally.
Officer Michael Peters, an 18-year veteran cop who was off-duty, was seen flying the Confederate flag on Veteran’s Day during a “Love Trumps Hate” rally in Traverse City, Mich., in the wake of Donald Trump’s presidential win, according to the Traverse City Record-Eagle.
On Monday, Traverse City Police Chief Jeffrey O’Brien called the incident “reprehensible” and said any officer should understand that he lives in “a glass house.”
“I met with him this morning and I think he understands the ramifications of his actions,” O’Brien told reporters during a morning news conference. “I’m not here to judge him; we have a process that we have to go through and we have to allow that process to be implemented. I’m asking everybody in the community to just be patient and let us do our job.”
O’Brien said the police officer has been suspended with pay during the investigation.”*
