Letter: Time to purge law enforcement

Donald Trump, on Sunday March 15, 2020, said “I can tell you I have the support of the police, the support of the military, the support of the Bikers for Trump – I have the tough people.”

Witness Trump’s present takeover of Portland, Oregon, without provocation or local redress. Locally, it is of immediate importance that we, as their citizen employers, purge our law enforcement agencies populated with an over abundance of Republican employees, purge their ranks of an excess of 50% Republicans.

Our law enforcement agencies must not be the instruments of Trump as he, in his provocation, as well as many of these officers, assume they are.
