As a general rule, police officers tend to lean more conservative than most groups. However, as with any other generality, there are always exceptions, and sometimes those exceptions are extreme.
Enter one loony police officer who had the nerve to say that one of her fellow officers was incapable of understanding something because of his “white male privilege”. While Officer Sarri Weber’s (the loony officer in question) remarks didn’t draw any criticism at the time they were made by the police chief overseeing the seminar where the event happened, that doesn’t mean that Weber got off scot-free. Indeed, we now know that Sarri Weber was suspended from the force following her asinine remarks.
It’s hard, though, to really blame Weber for what she said when we are living in a time when even those in the highest positions of power can accuse someone of being a racist, bigoted, homophobe without a shred of evidence to back it up. According to the media, many politicians, and countless others, calling out white males for their privilege isn’t only acceptable, it’s expected. Weber’s absurd behavior is merely a product of her teaching.
Nevertheless, it’s good to see that Weber was forced to face the consequences of her ridiculous actions. To see the event unfold be sure to check out the video below.
