A Chicago police officer has resigned a month after a video of him standing by while an elderly man harassed a Puerto Rican woman for her “un-American” T-shirt went viral. Officer Patrick Connor of the Forest Preserves of Cook County Police Department resigned late Wednesday, and the police department say they are continuing to investigate the incident. In a video filmed last month that recently went viral, Connor can be seen standing by while an irate man harasses Mia Irizarry, who is dressed in a tank top with the Puerto Rican flag on it. Woman wears a Puerto Rico shirt. A man confronts her for wearing it, repeatedly approaches her within a couple feet, and questions her citizenship. When the woman pleads for a nearby police officer to keep the man back from her, he ignores her. pic.twitter.com/0YwG1rIuSl — Riley (@TheRileyWilson) July 9, 2018 Seemingly unaware that Puerto Rico is in fact a US territory, the man proceeds to unload on Irizarry, calling her “un-American” and questioning her citizenship. “I would like to know is she an American citizen? Why is she wearing that shit?” he says, temper rising. “You’re not going to change us. The world is not going to change the United States of America. You should not be wearing that in the United States of America.” Irizarry called for help from Officer Connor, who declined to intervene, and instead milled around in the background. Eventually, other officers turned up and arrested the man, who they said was intoxicated. The man, identified as 62-year-old Timothy Trybus, was charged with assault. Timothy Trybus is the man who was arrested after repeatedly harassing a woman in Cook County IL. becuase she was wearing a shirt with the Puerto Rico flag on it. Here’s the police report. pic.twitter.com/Fn274QVGW7 — David Begnaud (@DavidBegnaud) July 10, 2018 Connor was placed on desk duty as an investigation began. Meanwhile, the video drew anger on Twitter, and the Governor of Puerto Rico joined the calls for Connor to be fired on Monday. Governor Ricardo Rossello said that he was “shocked and disturbed by the officer’s behavior,” and called Trybus a “bigot.” Today a video surfaced of an undignified event in which a Puerto Rican woman was brutally harassed by a bigot while an officer did not interfere. I am appalled, shocked & disturbed by the officer’s behavior https://t.co/F9L4ewt1Ac @DavidBegnaud @ACLU — Ricardo Rossello (@ricardorossello) July 10, 2018 So, "old dude" harassed a woman for wearing a shirt that said, "Puerto Rico." Alternative headline: “Police officer refuses to intercede while angry racist menaces woman for wearing a Puerto Rico shirt in America.” https://t.co/W7pEXzjxrq — Sherrilyn Ifill (@Sifill_LDF) July 10, 2018 Poster Comment: “I would like to know is she an American citizen?

Good question. The answer is she is a "statutory" citizen, not a "constitutional" citizen. Meaning Congress, at any time, can stop giving U.S. citizenship to people born in Puerto Rico. The 14th amendment doesn't apply to Puerto Rico. Puerto Ricans living in Puerto Rico cannot vote for Congress or the President.
Well,*I* am unaware that makes them citizens. Irizarry called for help from Officer Connor, who declined to intervene, and instead milled around in the background. And he was wrong.Cops exist to keep the peace,not pick sides in arguments. Meanwhile, the video drew anger on Twitter, and the Governor of Puerto Rico joined the calls for Connor to be fired on Monday. And of course the only reasonable answer to that is "I no speaka de spick. Hiz not my yob,man!" Or as an alternative,"Speak English,MoFo!"
In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.
Nor could they be drafted back when the draft was in place. If they were living in the US and getting paid to vote Dim by getting free housing,fookd,clothing,and a check each month,they COULD be drafted.

"I would like to know is she an American citizen?"
