Calling for the resignation of Officer Justin Barrett

So another Boston Police Officer decided to comment on the controversy regarding Professor Gates. In an Email that he sent he called Gates a "banana-eating jungle monkey" and said "He has indeed transcended back to a bumbling jungle monkey." from http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20090730/ts_alt_afp/usracismarrestuniversitypolice.

This is not acceptable!! I think that the officer that said these things, Officer Justin Barrett, needs to be fired immediately. He was suspended pending a hearing but he better be terminated. His views are not acceptable, especially as a police officer. What sort of justice can this racist be giving to African-Americans he comes into contact with. He is a bigot, ignorant and obviously not capable of being a fair and impartial officer.

FIRE HIM NOW Boston! And SHAME on YOU Officer Justin Barrett!
