Sgt. Matt Patton Fired for Wearing QAnon Patch While Protecting Pence
Mike Pence's office posted a photo of his security details. One of the people was wearing a Q patch. Representing QAnon, the conspiracy theory group who thinks the government is corrupt, involved in sex-trafficking, etc.
Anyway, the guy was fired. After 26 years on the service. The media freaked out about it, said it was ultra-right-wing white nationalism (lies), and get him fired.
Sorry, but he got himself fired by bringing politics into his job to protect...politicians. Damn, sounds like a terrible argument when I word it that way. But he shouldn't have worn the patch.
Thoughts? Should he have gotten fired? Is his wife right to complain about the ending of his 26 year career like she did?
Sounds like he got what he wanted. He knew about the policy, and wore the badge anyways.
Maybe he was planning on quitting anyways, and figured he'd go out with a bang, and give the cause some press.

If there is a specific policy that was violated, okay he brought it on himself. As long as there is zero tolerance for breaking the policy. If this is the sort of thing that wouldn't always result in someone being fired, but it happened cuz whiny b*tches in the media got involved and lied and fear mongered? It's wrong. Especially if he'd be wearing a patch showing support for a democrat, if the outcome wouldn't have been the same? It's wrong.
And we both know the media wouldn't have jumped on it were that the case, so for them this wasn't about any policy violation.
