“Warsame does believe change is necessary within the police department — and he hopes it starts with newly appointed police chief Medaria Aarrondondo. ‘I haven’t spoken to Rondo yet, but I will have frank discussions with him and I will put in front of him the changes that I expect.'”
Why does Abdi Warsame think he is in a position to dictate to the Minneapolis police department?
Will Abdi Warsame demand from Medaria Aarrondondo the changes that are really needed: an end to “diversity” hires, and the hiring and firing of police officers based on merit alone?
Unlikely.
“City council member says Justine Damond shooting not about race, culture,” by Karen Scullin, KMSP, July 24, 2017:
MINNEAPOLIS (KMSP) – Nearly a week after the shooting of an Australian woman by Minneapolis police, city council member Abdi Warsame is pointing a finger at the media — specifically The Daily Mail — and also former congresswoman Michele Bachmann for making the shooting an issue of hate or cultural differences instead of what it is — a police issue.
Offering condolences to Damond’s family, Warsame said Sunday her death is not the fault of the Somali community.
Officer Mohamed Noor is the officer who shot and killed Damond on July 15, he was the first Somali officer in the fifth precinct, but Warsame says the officer’s race and culture is irrelevant and he wants the hate and blame toward the Somali community to stop.
“I’ve seen the change in the community — social media is driving it, the far right media is driving it the Islamaphobes are driving it,” Warsame said.
photoWarsame specifically called out former congresswoman Michele Bachmann for comments she made.
“We had a man, Mohamed Noor, who was an affirmative action hire by the hijab-wearing mayor of Minneapolis Betsy Hodges, ” Bachmann said at a recent event, adding, “We need to step up deportation in the country of people who are unwilling to bear allegiance to the United States.”
Warsame’s frustrated that Bachmann is making the shooting about race.
“But when you have somebody like congresswoman Michele Bachman [sic] that go on I don’t know TV or radio and say that this was done because he was a Muslim I mean I think that’s unacceptable,” Warsame said. “We are part and partial [sic] of this city and state. And I would like to tell Michele Bachman [sic] personally that I’m not going anywhere, my family is not going anywhere and my community is not going anywhere.”
Warsame does believe change is necessary within the police department — and he hopes it starts with newly appointed police chief Medaria Aarrondondo.
“I haven’t spoken to Rondo yet, but I will have frank discussions with him and I will put in front of him the changes that I expect,” Warsame said.
Some of those suggestions include a new independent civilian oversight board, even going as far as saying both state law and city policy need to change so that board has subpeona power for investigations and can discipline police misconduct.
Warsame said he has not spoken to officer Noor and will not pass judgment until all the facts are known. He did say he thought the mayor and former police chief were more or less out of line when they offered up their opinions on the shooting.
Rev g says
The officer’s race and culture are irrelevant when a protected minority screws up, but of particular importance when it is time to hire or promote.
Similarly, a white officer’s race is always relevant, it is always a reason to denigrate, point fingers, make allegations, etc.

Yup. It’s only relevant when it vilifies a white individual. Otherwise, it’s racist. At least now we see it for what it really is.

Well-said, and, of course, that is the pointed hypocrisy, here. The Left downplays race when it suits its purposes (rarely), and, obsesses over it (frequently) when it suits its purposes.

RIGHT & until the POLITICIANS in the WEST admit that the DEMOCRACIES of the WEST are under a many pronged attack by the IDEOLOGY of ISLAM funded primarily the ARAB GULF States & supported by SOROS & the LEFT then this sort of NONSENSE will continue.
WESTERN DEMOCRACIES must demand LEADERS who will stand up for the LAWS & CULTURE of their countries,
The LEFT in the UK have with the help of the LABOR PARTY set out to destroy the INDIGENOUS population & by and large they have been successful & their tactics are on view with the MUSLIM CHILD RAPING INDUSTRY facilitated & allowed & still in full swing !
The DUTCH have the same issue & have done totally NOTHING !
ONLY POLAND & HUNGARY & SLOVAKIA have stood up & been attacked for this !
This APPEASEMENT & COVER up will lead to the END of BOTH FREE SPEECH & DEMOCRACY !!

well; I EXPECT that the rank and file blue collar Minnesotans will have enough of this islamic ass kissing and kick crybaby Ellison out of congress; arrest and deport lawless Somalian immigrants, and take back their state!

Already way too many here legally. As outrageous as it sounds, i think the only answer is to suspend the Constitution until we can rid ourselves of these animals – starting with the Traitor, Elison
vyx says
This is a nation that elected Barack Obama– a complete incompetent– to be president twice to ease their feelings of racial guilt, so I have a lot of doubt about people doing the right thing from an electoral standpoint.
Hillary won Minnesota. They’re not going to change their opinions, and, in fact, I expect them to double down and do MORE to please the followers of allah. So… more muslims, and a re-election of Elllsion is in order to prove they’re not racist. Even though islam is not a race.
Guy Jones says
Good assessment. Obama and Ellison are birds of a feather — vile, arrogant, egotistical and incompetent.

It is wrong, at the beginning of any investigation, to prevent the investigators from investigating any possible reason for the event. .

Smart-alecky arrogance. Many expectations are never realized.
The moslum cop murdered the woman.for whatever *reason* he did it, and there is no doubt. The only things unknown at this point is whether he will be found guilty and on what charges.
This guy is just feeling his molsum oats and taking advantage of the situation to try to push for changes favorable to islum. He doesn’t care about the victim or her family. He doesn’t care about justice. It’s just islum, always islum.
The limelight shown on noor when he was ‘celebrated’ as a new hire. This guy is in the limelight for the same reason…he’s moslum.
paul says
he is not guilty. The head muslim says so..
Walter Sieruk says
About the Minneapolis police department ,the question should be asked “What kind of faulty and error ridden screening system to allow such a dangerous character , as that Muslim, Mohamed Noor , into the position of being a law enforcement officer ?” How incompetent and irresponsible can the Minneapolis police department be for having Noor a one in their ranks. For motto of most police agencies is to “serve and protect.” Not to “murder and create mayhem.” This is worse then awful, first is was terrible the the screening process was so ineffective that it allow such a despicable man to become a police officer. Second , after Mohamed Noor , somehow, sneaked through the so called screening system and testing part and then became a totally unqualified “police officer” Noor did have multiple complaints filed against him by the citizens of Minneapolis , Noor was still kept the job and not fired as he should have been.
There is must blame to go around .First, on the Muslim man ,Mohamed Noor for being such a vicious and murderous fiend. Second, the police a that hired and completely unfit man to be a police officer and then keeping him on police force after so many citizens informed the police department what an awful and unfit man Noor was. This is outrageous !
paul says
They knew what he is. However, the mayor takes HER orders from council member Abdi Warsame, and the men at her mosque.
Japetto Donatelli says
“… changes he expects.”
This is the usual mindset for muslims, that they should dictate to all humanity how to live, think, and feel. Rarely do they speak as an American to Americans, they speak as a muslim against America. I wouldn’t mind so much if their “expectations” were about sincerely wanting to improve the human condition, but it never is, it’s always about islamic supremacy above the rights of others. And that’s wrong on its face, because certain tenets of islam and sharia are antithetical to our laws, morality, and our human rights. Their “expectations” mean little to me when they are based on a desire to advance the violence and bigotry of islam. This council member’s stance is presented as an ultimatum couched in the usual claims of race-hate and islamophobia. There’s little good will in his tone, it’s all about what he EXPECTS, and he says this in the shadow of Justine Damond’s death. To me what he’s really saying is, “Listen you infidels, Justine Damond is dead and this is what we expect!” It’s almost like a threat just days after a muslim cop shoots one of our people for no good reason, a beautiful and kind person universally loved.
..the officer’s race and culture is irrelevant the officer’s race and culture is irrelevant
Not if his race and culture are what motivated him to kill.
There is an epidemic of muslims killing for the “race” and culture of islam. We have a right to consider the possibility that Justine was killed for the same bigoted reasons. Of course islam is not a “race,” but the left always says it is. So let’s use their own words against them. Perhaps Noor was venting his hostility for the “infidel” on behalf the “race” and culture of islam like so many of his brethren? I think it’s a fair question. And until I hear of a more plausible, reasonable explanation why he shot an unarmed woman in cold blood I think it’s the most plausible theory out there.
DAI says
He killed that women through incompetence ,not a hatred of whites,but ,yes,he hates Whites all the same.Can you imagine this cop getting into an argument with a civilian and what the outcome could be. Get to the streets,America!!!
StacyGirl says
Further, he has a record of poor interactions with female citizens. This is strike four, a totally unwarranted killing.
Ru says
Seems like an excellent assessment of the situation!

“Warsame does believe change is necessary within the police department — and he hopes it starts with newly appointed police chief Medaria Aarrondondo. ‘I haven’t spoken to Rondo yet, but I will have frank discussions with him and I will put in front of him the changes that I expect.’”
It is time that the people Minneapolis tell the Muslims the FACTS about their CULT belief system in the same clear cut manner that Muslims are DEMANDING to be listened to~
It is obvious that the police chief and mayor will not tell Warsame to go to HELL. This is up to “We the People” in Minneapolis to do so by literally using his own scripture to utterly discredit him as a loyal citizen of the USA by pointing out the following irrefutable facts:
Since every Muslim is Sharia compliant every Muslim cannot ever be a Law abiding LOYAL citizen in ANY non Muslim nation because these nations do not submit to Allah’s Sharia. Hence every Muslim is the mortal and eternal enemy of every non Muslim Infidel/ Kafir on planet Earth (80% of current humanity) who hide their disloyalty by PRETENDING and deceiving (Taqiyyah) non Muslims that they are loyal
Every Muslim is therefore a potential Mass Murderer the instant he/ she decides that he/she is NOT Sharia compliant enough (just like in the recent Muslim terrorist attacks in UK and the Afghani Muslim soldiers who murder their American benefactors)
It is true that Not ALL Muslims are Terrorists BUT 100% of all Terrorist attacks against Infidels/ Kuffar are committed ONLY by Muslims. Therefore, every Muslim is a hair trigger Time Bomb primed to go off (It is also a FACT that it is IMPOSSIBLE to point out who among Muslims is a terrorist or not)
Only in the WARPED imagination of leftists and the brain dead can one find Moderate, Militant, Radical or Extremist Muslims because in reality Muslims are Muslims just as Nazis are Nazis and no one ever addressed Nazis as Moderate, Militant, Radical or Extremist. (Just ask PM Erdogan of Turkey to prove my statements)
All other explanations are superfluous and redundant It is time for every decent and patriotic person to unshackle yourselves from the pre conceived but erroneous notion that ANYONE who is not a Muslim can make PEACE with Islam.
All anyone in doubt has to do is READ only chapters 2 to 9 of Muhammad’s Quran and watch the repeated mass slaughter of unarmed innocent European, American, Russian, Indian, Chinese, Iraqi etc. civilians by Muslims proclaiming they are doing the butchery to PLEASE their demonic god Allah
As usual, all that Americans get from their criminally negligent leaders in the Media, Academia, Politics and Clergy after every Islamic mass murder are platitudes, meaningless expressions of sympathy to the hapless victims by the very leaders who are unwilling to protect their citizenry because of their abject denial of all Facts and Reality regarding the TRUTH about Muslims and Islam

Just examine the tenets of the New World Order to understand how the NWO plan is being put into action using ‘useless idiots’ who have no idea what they are doing to subvert the United Sates Constitution. NWO agents are ready to move heaven and earth in order to bring about their diabolical plan. What if it costs them trillions upon trillions of dollars? What if millions of precious people end up losing their lives? These are considered the goals of the NWO agenda, but is anyone paying attention?
1) Abolition of all ordered governments
2) Abolition of private property
3) Abolition of inheritance
4) Abolition of patriotism
5) Abolition of the family
6) Abolition of religion
7) Creation of a world government

Abdi Warsame, the Muslim community “leader” (imam?) is trying to square the circle: accomplish an inherently impossible task.
The task is to insure the presence of competent Somalis in the police force, when there are simply not enough competent Somalis to go around. So, Warsame wants to paper over the contradiction with more review boards, accountability regulations, etc, etc. It’s like responding to the high dropout rate and low educational achievements of blacks in education by creating yet another affirmative action or diversity office.
No community organization is going to admit its people may be underqualified, and that the best overall solution for the community might be to hire strictly on merit, and if there are fewer or zero Somali police, at least the police in the neighborhoods will be competent and intelligent. So, it’s merit versus identity group politics. Which do you think Warsame will choose?
Guy Macher says
This Muslim barrow is half right–it has nothing to do with race. BUT, it has everything to do with Islamic culture, nor correctly termed Muslim barbarity.
Tom says
The new police chief “Medaria Aarrondondo” perhaps is specifically chosen as new chief with the intent of manipulation by the members of the City Council.
Let’s hope the new chief has a backbone enough that he will stand up to this bully of a Council person.
StacyGirl says
Right. This is Minneapolis. Have you been, ever ?
mgoldberg says
No more hires of somalis, of muslims, because they want ‘diversity’. There is the need for good, competent, and qualified police. It is a dangerous and difficult career, and the somali cop shot a civilian out of his police car, across his partner, after being startled. This was an act of incompetence by the cop.
He has suspect emotional fragilities as noted by a neighbor, and he was apparently guilty of negligence… now, for this bozo leader to demand changes in ‘acceptance’ of muslims, means no looking into anything that might interfere with their being police.
That is unacceptable, and the people of Minneapolis need to know this and not let this guy guilt out the
city and the police dept.
Bezelel says
We’re watching a slow motion train wreck. I have low expectations of anyone named “rondo” especially when their immediate superior is an islamophile libtard that wears scarfs as a religious costume to appease a death cult. Basically doing the same thing, expecting different results. That’s not a plan.
brane pilot says
It is time for minorities in the USA to be escorted down from their PC pedestal, because in a few years they will be the majority. The last 60 years in this country have been all about preventing the racial majority from having privileges not enjoyed by racial minorities, and the methodology was to make white people a minority. It has worked. White elementary school age children are now a racial minority in the USA (Source US Census), so the project is finished.
Or is it?
balafama says
u r not so brainy are u ? america is still 75 % white so what on earth are u whining about. stop making this about race/religion .white cops with multiple complaints on their files shoot innocent folks too and we would like to ascribe it to incompetence/ bad judgment and not race or religion. until minorities start getting away with killing people you dont have a case .
StacyGirl says
Hello fool, 75% of the population, but not over 50% of murderers, rapists, thugs, and thieves. Have you been to Chicago or Minneapolis lately? How about D C? Notice what racial group comprises a significant portion of criminals come from a coded class. Come ride the metro train in St Louis. So many killings, attacks, assaults. You need to get out more.

The city is lost. It will now descend into a spinning shit storm of “islamaphobia” and sensitivity demands for the muslims community. This is crap. Islam is evil and constantly makes everything about them. Muslims do not belong in any civilized nation. Deport all who swear allegiance to Allah the Pagan moon god.
Richard Courtemanche says
Normally someone in Noor’ situation would be holding their ass with both hands. However, it appears that Noor is in control here. Is Minneapolis under siege from the Somali community? Are the mayor and police chief operating under fear to exercise their authority as they normally would for their citizens in general? Take control now or lose it for sure later, soon.
