Illinois Police Officer Resigns After White Supremacist Posts Surface Online
"When I seize power, 'hate crimes' will be encouraged," read a social media post linked to veteran officer Aaron Paul Nichols. He resigned Tuesday.
“If I found a genie and I had one wish? The Jews would be a distant memory in 72 hours,” one of the posts allegedly written by Nichols reads.
The Springfield Police Department said on Friday that it had launched an investigation into Nichols’ “racist comments,” and that his “police powers had been removed.” On Tuesday, the department told HuffPost in a statement that Nichols, who joined the department in 2004, resigned instead of meeting with investigators.
This latest revelation comes amid growing concern by the FBI that law enforcement has been infiltrated by white supremacists.

It blows my mind that anyone could be so stupid and hateful as to engage in this kind of behavior. Thank goodness they caught this guy. Let's see all of his fellow travelers join him in the ranks of the unemployed.
