https://www.rawstory.com/2020/08/ny-officer-suspended-after-refusing-to-respond-to-planned-parenthood-911-call-due-to-black-lives-matter-sign/Planned Parenthood staff said that they called the police department on Friday after an individual kicked the door multiple times while trying to get in the building.

According to Planned Parenthood, after the responding officer found out a Black Lives Matter sign in the window belonged to the organization the officer berated the staff for supporting the movement and left after refusing to respond to the call, WKBW reported.

And here are the comments on the Facebook-page of the PD:
Due process is the foundation of our system. Thank you for using due process. Innocent until proven guilty.
WSPD so sorry that the department has to go through this. I hope this incident is resolved quickly and peacefully. Please know you are all in my thoughts and prayers
I hope the officer is being treated fairly and with due process. I dont know the facts here, but every single cop from time to time has not had the perfect demeanor on a dispatched call.
I support that officer
Please be kind & respectful to each other. Treat others as you would like to be treated.
I don't blame the officer at all
Yeah ...🤬🤬...blame it on a cop... its always ..🤬... the cops fault...🤬...
Sounds like cancel culture is catching up to WSPD....
Bend to cancel culture.

Bend to cancel culture.
People let it go until all facts are known. Innocent until proven guilty. Be respectful of the situation...you would want that if you were being investigated police officer or not. These negative comments are pure ignorance towards the police and planned parenthood. Stop making accusations and let justice take it's course. All you negative people should be happy we have an excellent fair respectful helpful police department. They will serve your ignorance and save your ass whether you like them or not! I know I'm thankful for our police department and appreciate them immensely ❤🤍💙🇺🇸🇺🇲 Please let them do their job
Innocent until proven guilty is only valid in court-trials. Not during investigations.
And the police will not "save your ass whether you like them or not" as proven by this very incident you just commented on!!!
