Chief Of Mobile AL Police Department Catching Heat From Wife's Racist Comment

Has the US not experienced enough this year with racism in the Black Community?

Matter of fact, has the Black Community not experienced enough over the past 50 years with racism?

The City Of Mobile is known for being a major tourist attraction because of its nearby beaches, fresh seafood and for being the original home of Mardi Gras.

Yet the last thing the city wants to be known for is having their Chief carrying out matters of anything related to law enforcement with a wife who feels that "all blacks are violent".

Below is an image containing the comment on Facebook made by Chief Barber's wife, 'Faith Barber' after an individual stated, "All Blacks Are Not Violent" upon which she replied "Since when?".

This just goes to show you how "some" white people low key feel about blacks regardless of how educated or financially grounded you are. This is merely a reflection of the conversations their household speaks on behind closed doors or among their friends. These are the very ones who are your doctors, nurses, lawyers and more. To say all blacks are violent is a very ignorant and uneducated statement.

 We personally don't feel he should continue on as Chief of the Mobile Police Department unless the City of Mobile is happy with having a Chief with a public identity for being racist towards blacks residing over their city's law enforcement department. This can only lead us to believe that many cases are being possibly handled with a lack of concern because they feel all blacks are violent anyway. Mind you a while back he even stated that had Michael Moore, (who was a young black teen killed by a white officer of the Mobile Police Department) not been riding around in a stolen car, he would have not been killed. That along was another uneducated response to say that any person deemed as a possible criminal deserves to be killed.

Let us add that there is currently no updates on that murder case by that officer and no hearing of a trial scheduled any time soon.

According to Fox 10 News, the Chief made an open apology for his wife's comments on the Facebook site and comments previously made by himself. The community however feels that his apology is not even close to being enough and many feel that he should resign from his position.

We do not feel that statements such as this should be overlooked by a minor apology. Her uneducated actions should lead to some form of discipline. It would be difficult to assume that the citizens of the city as well as those "Black Officers" who serve in the blue under him are content with this behavior.

These same "Black Officers" who she carelessly labeled that "all blacks are violent" are the very ones who serve and protect you and your family. So to say they all are violent or "since when" did they not exist as violent is truly idiotic.

If I were in LE (Law Enforcement), I would probably feel a bit indifferent serving under these accusations.

How do you feel about this situation?

Do you feel Chief Barber should resign following this statement by his wife or past statements he has made? Do you feel the City of Mobile deserves another Chief over their Police Department?
