Illinois officer resigns after not helping woman wearing Puerto Rico shirt

An Illinois police officer resigned after facing public criticism for not helping a woman who was harassed for wearing a Puerto Rico flag shirt.
A now-viral video showed Officer Patrick Connor failing to intervene when a man identified as Timothy G. Trybus began to harass 24-year-old Mia Irizarry, calling her un-American for wearing a Puerto Rico shirt.
“Effective today, Officer Patrick Connor no longer serves in the police department of the Forest Preserves of Cook County,” the agency tweeted on Wednesday. “He resigned late today. But that isn’t where our works ends.” LINK

The attention given to this case compared to the other examples where MAGA supporters were harassed is nauseating.
That said, officer probably should have stepped in and told the guy that he made his point and he should move on.

Good. He's a piece of shite for not doing his job and getting that racist piece of shite away from her.

When he went up close to her he should have been at the very least warned. She felt threatened and rightfully so. The guy seemed batshit, and the cop should have done something.

So does this agency do the same thing when Antifa goes on the attack or do they stand idly by?

You just can't make this shite up. How does this motherfricker manage to breathe?? With his intelligence, I'm surprised he hasn't forgotten how to.

Good the dude was a total piece of shite human for not helping.

Isn't PR a USA territory? So by definition, wearing a PR shirt cannot be un-American.

This guy will go on to have a long, distinguished career with the Broward County Sheriff’s Department.
