Racist Challenge Coin by Dallas Police

DALLAS - The Dallas Police Department said it is investigating a so-called challenge coin made by a white officer that the head of the Dallas Black Police Association called "racist."
The chief of police called it wrong and said the officer is suspended and under investigation by internal affairs
Challenge coins are typically commemorative coins used by many organizations, but especially law enforcement, to boost morale and camaraderie. Officers will exchange them amongst one another.
Dallas Police Chief Eddie Garcia said this design stains and tarnishes the work of Dallas PD.
It depicts a drug dealing character named "dough boy," who is holding an assault rifle, cash, and wearing gold teeth. It also has a car with giant gold rims facing off with a Dallas PD vehicle.
The rendering was put together by a white officer in the South Central Division.
It also has the words "Big T Plaza," which is a shopping center off I-35 and Ann Arbor in Oak Cliff that primarily serves black customers.
The rendering was posted to social media to gauge interest from other officers.
Hopkins believes the officer’s rendering reveals a bias against the community he’s policing.
The chief said, to his knowledge, the coins were never made.

They're only angry by how accurate the coin is.

Why do black officers have their own special group?

Pillsbury Doughboy is racist?

So someone like Murphy Paul can sue and claim racism for not getting jobs they are utterly unqualified for.

Notice how they don’t challenge the accuracy of the stereo type, only that it hurts fellings.

Would the BRPD challenge coin having Gary Chambers smoking a blunt on it?

The doughboy is white. They say it is racist only because they want it to be racist.

The extreme liberal biased local affiliate Fox4 here in Dallas has had this as the lead story all last night & all this morning. This is a non story compared to what else is going on in this country. We are truly living in clown world. This is idiotic that this even made the news but the media is all race all the time now.

Don't see anything wrong here.
Posted on 9/1/22 at 10:44 am to blueridgeTiger
but Doughboy is WHITE - How is this racist towards WHITE people?
Posted on 9/1/22 at 10:56 am to blueridgeTiger
I'm having a hard time seeing the racist part.
Posted on 9/1/22 at 10:58 am to blueridgeTiger

It's racist, huh. Go show me this type of scene in a majority white neighborhood, even a trashy one. Now also show me drug dealing arrest stats by race. I'll wait.
