"Brian Valenti, the Coconut Creek K-9 officer who posted a snide comment on Facebook that triggered public outrage, is being suspended for five days and will be required to undergo sensitivity training, the department said Tuesday.
Valenti told Police Chief Butch Arenal he regretted posting a comment saying he hoped Parkland activist David Hogg would get hit by a car during Friday’s protest at Publix. The 23-year veteran told his supervisors it was meant as a joke, but he now realizes it was not funny.
He told the chief he plans to apologize in person to Hogg and other organizers of the event.
Hogg said Tuesday, “Cops are meant to protect and serve communities, not spread hate and violence among them.”

Fake News.
The Young Turks you guys are great and your news is real I looked up all the things you talk about because the things cops are doing are still surprising me
Hey TYT. When those kids were laying down in the supermarket, I would step on every one of them if they were blocking me from getting my shopping done. Why? Because gun control doesn't work.
And yes! David Hogg and Emma Gonzalez especially are in fact crisis actors. David Hogg is actually on video saying he wasn't at the school when the shooting happened. Emma Gonzalez has gone as far to say that it's OK to bully other kids. And while both of these mental cases are advocating for more gun control and the destruction of the NRA, you should be clued in on something. The NRA has advocated for the NICS system for years now. That is common sense gun control. While the NICS system is in place, a lot of states fail to report people who have committed crimes and are mentally disturbed to that system. So if states aren't willing to report to the system that keeps guns away from violent and mentally unstable people, like David Hogg and Emma Gonzalez, how can you really expect any other form of gun control to be effective.
You actually haven't heard that lie was debunked? Why do Trumptards never get caught up with the facts? They will keep repeating the things that were made up and debunked and it's seriously like they are still trying to give CPR to a dead body that has been dead for months! Lol! Get a life! You sounded like you envied I
Bruce Lewin ok let me ask you something, when you turn on the news what do you expect? Probably someone telling you important stuff that you probably need to know. But when you watch TYT it’s just butt hurt liberals complaining that someone doesn’t agree with Mr. Hogg’s views. Yes he could’ve said it better, but you can’t say you never wished someone was dead. And yes I’m a republican and no I don’t agree with Hogg’s views.
In any sane country that cop would be fired immediately and under investigation for sending a death threat.
pisse3000 ......Jimmy Dore has it correct. Cops are maniacs ...homicidal maniacs with guns and badges. IOW: fascists.
JoeyFiveandDimes you are the fascist
FLY HARD yes nobody sane would take that as a threat but, you in the minority. TYTs rely on histeria not sanity.
FLY HARD Given how American police act I would take that threat very seriously. And even if we look beyond that, police officers have a particular responsibility to watch what they are saying. Especially knowing what people have said about these kids.
A sane country's police force would want fewer firearms around, not more.
All they want is to not be killed when they go to school.
Who can possibly be against that?
You don't understand. The entire USA is the trumptard's safe space. You're not allowed to use reason (or by the way also facts or logic) to question ANYTHING they do or say. They will lose their shit at you and yell a bunch of stuff that secretly means"HOW DARE YOU VIOLATE OUR SAFE SPACE!!!"
Why are cops against gun control. Wouldn't cops be safer if you had less guns on the streets. But they vote republican. I just don't get it.
They think liberals would disarm them too. That's why.
Yeah...shut up you are making too much sense.
Hostis Humani Generis It's not the population amount. It's the amount of guns in a population.
What in the hell would cause an officer to say such a thing, the survivors already went through enough hell, it's no joke at all.
hey robert, wanting gun control wouldnt make the 2nd amendment go away, thats not how anything works
Alvet Goodridge what would cause the officer to say that? Apparently his is a Progressive. 😂
JB JG he is a regressive Progressive
Happy Ramadan 💣
He's probably "pro life", so there's that.
Police should not joke like that when they have power over life and death. Hold them to highest standard or shouldn’t be officers.
"It was a joke" is the last-ditch effort of a desperate person, usually a bully, to try to get out of facing consequences for their actions.
All police officers should have mandatory weekly therapy with a licensed professional
AGENT 355 I'd prefer they just didn't put retards and former bullies in uniforms. They came into this world a burden on people, and we're supposed to trust them with maintaining public order.
I wish America did not have cops.
In Europe or UK such "cop" would have been sacked immidiately. Supervisor would not defend him.
Can confirm. Brit.
Wut? Are you expecting american cops to have standers?
Living in France. Can also confirm.
S S America is loosing control !
Shade Bleu Americans kill more Americans than Muslims do, the irony is great !
That cop needs to be fired and formally apologize, publicly.
He needs to be prosecuted not just fired.
Sasha Fedyukin Keep on pushing politeness in every circumstance, you'll eventually have it happening to you. The cop ssid something foolish, he did not say he wants Hogg dead.
I'd bet that he will get paid leave.
Very likely.
If he's making statements like that about a 17 year old a peaceful protester, then I can only imagine how he's used his "authority" to treat actual people
this cop should be fired.
rouge1ful I agree
Mauris I didn't know about that spike in Google, and I wouldn't have had any reason to look at Madonna's reaction. I don't like her. However, thank you for that insight, but I said _I haven't seen any liberals saying worse,_ not that it hasn't happened. I don't disagree that Donald Trump should be removed from the White House, but never in a violent manner. I also don't disagree with the fact that Hillary Clinton lost the election. I don't like self-serving people who make light of serious issues or who break laws being put into positions of power.
It is getting so tiring that people say something racist or something stupid and then say “Oh it was just a joke”. That is no excuse. They are saying what they really feel and don’t want to admit it.
Yeah, sometimes people do that. In this case, I think it is pretty obvious from the onset that the cop was just kidding around. C'mon.
Kinky Bartender I hope you are not saying that the cop “was” joking. How many people do you tell “you wish some old person or anyone for that matter doesn’t lose control of their vehicle”?
The world has not gone crazy...America has. leave the rest of us out of it!
S Tabarnak ...👏👏👏
The problem is people get unhinged and say ridiculous shit on the internet. Doesn't mean there shouldn't be repercussions. He should be fired.
If this cop speaks this way about young white students, imagine how he's going to treat a black or Latino person? Smh
Gregorio Gonzalez
Or maybe he isn’t racist? It happens.
firstandforemost87 you are right he might not be racist but he sure is ignorant!
Gregorio Gonzalez
Yea, definitely wasn’t thinking about his station and what it means, that’s for sure.
If the OP makes assumptions about cops that make bad jokes, imagine what he thinks about inner city gang bangers that make bad decisions.
Kinky Bartender it wasn't even a joke he just tried to cover it up saying it was a joke! Just like Roseanne did, calling it a bad joke doesn't make it not ignorant or wrong especially if us the people pay your salary for you to protect and serve. Yet your wishing ill against kids!
And cops wonder why people don't respect them anymore.
I don't get why Americans dislike kids so much. Pretty damned heartless.
*Troll,* It's *you* calling them children. ^^^ Parents call them kids.
Faustino Ocon He is a child. Stop with the bitching.
Republicans: Muh guns!
From an old Brit: Public service requires a barrow load of neutrality regardless of our personal opinions, there is no excuse and hopefully nowhere to hide for this cop,
Jim McLoughlin you hit the nail on the head. Police no longer mediate situations till completion (however long) with the most important goal of nobody getting hurt in a situation scene. Now American p o. are painfully not emotionally competent to interact with citizens. And in what seems like split seconds steps from legal police conduct and protocol and training to something more like a scary take over !! Unstable bullies the lot of them.
He was probably one of the cops that didn't go in the school to help cause they were scared
It saddens me how far we have fallen to not have empathy or care anymore about our fellow human beings. to even so call joke about this is sick and mean.
People do not joke when they're angry he meant every word. You don't have to be a mind reader to know that.
Hell, as I always tell people, "when I stop joking, that's when you get concerned for me." Cause it means then I'm FURIOUS.
Remove internal investigation and treat all cops like regular people in the same courts everyone else has to go through, not have their own secret investigation.
dane mathews that how it works buddy
Agreed. But IDK if all the luck in the world can make this happen, not in our day and age -- not until we get a REAL leader.
Kj Collins No it doesn’t. Read something about internal investigation and then comment
Decency and compassion are becoming a thing of the past. So sad.
When you know what happens to a female teacher who posts a picture wearing a bikini on social media, then you can't believe how lightly that cop got away for a post like this.
That's pretty sad for anyone to wish that. This cop shouldn't be a cop if he thinks this way
Coming from a police officer... He needs to be fired!
AWARHERO nice to see some police officers out their who know this wasn’t ok. Thank you for your service and being a example
AWARHERO careful man, around these parts are people that will see you as no different as this guy
I think a lot of people are jealous him ...that kid has done more with his life at 18 than those losers that shit on him have
That officer should immediately be fired. He has no business in law enforcement if he wishes death on a citizen he is supposed to protect. Yeah you're really representing your department well aren't you officer?
Strange world. The resentment and anger expressed against the Parkland survivors wouldn't have been acceptable ten or twenty years ago.
This cop was probably carrying a tiki torch in Charlottesville. This is a common joke among fascists. He totally meant it.
Has anyone else noticed that over the last year Blue Lives Matter has been less vocal for defending the police after more stories keep coming out about them abusing thier authority or that those on conservative tv who used to be nonstop advocates for cops aren't doing it as much as they used to?
Did you guys see the video about the cop punching the girl in the head at the beach because she refused to give the officer her name? She was suspected of underage drinking, took the breathalyzer and passed. In that particular case, the officer in question was, "placed on administrative duty."
If I tackle a girl on the beach and punch her repeatedly in the head, I'll just get administrative duty too, right?
The way cops are these days I highly doubt it was a joke.
It wasn't.
What a country we live in. Anywhere else a mass shooting would be a horrific, once in a lifetime thing, here it's just another Tuesday.
How anyone can call that a joke is beyond me.
Keep an eye on Brian Valenti. You'll hear about him gunning someone down later on....
I dont care if the cop was joking or not, that was something a "COP" WHO IS SUPPOSED TO BE A "PILLAR IN OUR COMMUNITIES, KIDS ARE SUPPOSED TO LOOK UP TO THESE MEN AN WOMAN!!! NOW THIS MAN JUST MADE ANOTHER REASON NOT TO TRUST SOMEONE IN UNIFORM WAY TO GO!!!
"A Florida cop."
Of course it's Florida. Of course...
This is how much they care about protecting you.
This makes me so disappointed... I live in Coral Springs and my school was on Code red that day and we got out of school a half hour late and when I got home my mom hugged me and my sister and started crying, something my mom doesn’t do often. Before this I didn’t really have much opinion on gun control but now... my friends cried over the kids they knew who died and luckily no one I knew died in the shooting but I still breaks my heart to see shit like this and honestly I’m not surprised. I’m 14 and I vow that I will protest to my heart’s content, write letters to my representatives and do everything I can do I don’t ever have to come home to my mother or any other family member crying over something like this and so that I hopefully one day will never have to go through what those parents went through when I hopefully have children one day. My only regret is that it took for something to happen four miles away for me to finally take a stand.
Never needed cops in my life, not even ONCE. Hate that they are "needed", hate that my cousin is training to be one, hate that my uncle was one. Firefighters, THOSE are the TRUE heroes! They never kill and only save!
This cop should be in custody awaiting his arraignment on terrorist threat charges - like a normal citizen.
This kid must be doing something right if he has managed to trigger cops enough to oust themselves.
shab90 If I start yelling the N word in public and trigger people, does that mean I'm doing something right aswell?
But you don't. As evidenced here: *"the N word"* in public " ^^^
Above Ground But that's the logic he used, since Hogg triggers people he must be doing something right, right?
Are Y'all Finish or Y'all Done
Nobody likes a fuckin smart ass. Don't be one. This is an educated kid going against a huge for profit corporation trying to make them change their laws and make them more sensible in order to save lives or at least prevent mass killings. Stupid people can infiltrate into the most prestigious careers and if a high school student can get these people to publicly oust themselves with comments that they later regret then we can single those idiots out and get them out of those positions where they are suppossed to serve the public not insult them.
You'd think a cop with a working brain would be for gun control, as it would lower the risks to his life on the job.
But then again, having a working brain might be a too generous assumption in this case.
you misunderstand. they join the force so they could kill people and boss them around, not keep the streets safe.
Dwight Langston, he was saying having gun control keep cops safe. They can still shoot and control ppl.
As a Black American I don't find this cops comments to be a joke. Remember he also posted pics of these kids. I have no problem believing he hopes some crazy is motivated to carry out the sentence he's pronounced upon these kids. He needs to be fired and prosecuted. Isn't speaking of killing a specific person or persons a crime ?
+ashllykaleo
Are poeples lives ruinied by stalkers, because one can do allmost nothing before the deed?
ashllykaleo - IF anything happens, I’m confident that the police will investigate themselves and find that the officers comments were completely justified. Sorry bud.
What does being black have to do with anything?
ashllykaleo David Hogg is not black? Or is heeee????
Why is he still a cop
Harold Weston This is America dude.
That's a terroristic threat thinly veiled.
words have consequences
Bobbius Shadow Unless it just involves getting a stern talking to, which you know that was the only 'reprocussion' that uniformed pig faced.
Oh dear! Looks like the NRA got into the comments first!!
Repercussions for the cop = a week off with pay while they investigate
And people wonder why cops are becoming so despised around the country...
The most powerful country in history has amounted to this. American police training stifles many areas of social and personal intelligence, instead fostering tribalism and selfish irrational fear. This is damaging for anyone. If you're a person who doesn't thrive in intellectual pursuits, this damage is extensive. What a tragedy.
It was a joke!? I don't think so.
This is a direct threat of violence coming from a government employee.
He needs to be fired immediately and never allowed to be a cop ever again.
This cop is an example as to why abortion is going to stay legal. 😃
Holy Pole Ofcourse it will.
Knowing my experiences, people like Brian Valenti always reveal their true darker selves when they're making horrific jokes out of reactionary flippancy and are never honest when they try to be sincere, humble, and equally human unless, of course, it's their PAYING jobs that are on the line - See Roseanne's last ditch / way too late efforts at a sincere apology.
Officer “Rosanne” ? Why was he not fired?
There should certainly be consequences for this police officer. Unbelievable. Who would make a joke like this about taking a life????? What is wrong with these people?!
Loving_vapes_70 it's quite disgusting that an officer of the law said those horrific. This shouldn't be acceptable at all, this cop should get suspended or fired.
Joke or not, suggesting murder should instantly disqualify you from being an officer.
The joke is that the pig will be hired by border patrol in a few months .
Phillip Lopez ok....?
OOF
Angry Ape research border patrol and the crimes commited by their agents . It has become the bottom of the law enforcement barrel .
Hostis Humani Generis grab a dictionary and look up the word " misdemeanor " educate yourself .
Hostis Humani Generis no argument , only facts , and ignorance .
"A Florida cop..."
Well that makes sense
if i made a joke about a protester dying, i would be fired from my retail job.
That's how you know you live in a police state when police get away with things normal individuals wouldnt.
We need less police, and a better armed populace enforcing their rights and responsibilities.
...and you might be facing charges for terrorist threats. ...and you'd be sitting in jail waiting for your court date. ...suspended for 5 days... ....the double standard is frustrating...
I also assume that when someone says something completely nuts and inappropriate, their joking. But i have to admit, that assumption turns out to be wrong an alarming number of times.
That officer should go under unpaid leave pending an investigation and serious punishments!
To be honest I think he should loose his job but..
Wishing someone death or harm is disgusting!
Shame on him!!!
Yeah but you know as well as I do that even if the cop kills the kid himself he wont even be tried he'll just claim he feared for his life
+Gordon Byron right? if he really wanted him dead he would be. too much paperwork for him probably.
He should be fired. He's an officer of the law.
Seriously what the hell is wrong with people in uniform as of late
Matthew Wittkopp of late?? Haha u must be white
Of late? The only thing different is the presence of cameras.
This is so weird, there was another guy who was found out to be a cop that said he wished someone would drop a 30 pack of soda on his face while walking by in the grocery store. Does anyone really think these guys aren’t serious? Does anyone really think we shouldn’t demand top down police reform?
"This is America"; how sick is it that our protectors are wishing death to a shooting victim and have sadistic views about folks with brown and black skin. I remember the days when I trusted law enforcement and wanted to be one when I was young. SOme might listen to the post and think the cop was just joking but when black america experience killings at the hands of officers when unarmed; I find it scary hearing such a threat. The bar is so low that we can view these shootings in plain view and "oh well, it is just another day". This is America.
Perhaps the cops mental health should be evaluated and any weapons removed during the process
“There will be repercussions” means there will be no repercussions.
I’m not sure it was a joke. Why would you joke about something like that. It also depends on your definition of a joke. It’s certainly not funny.
Yup, sounds like an American cop.
That cop would be fired immediately... Then I would hire someone to assist him in picking his teeth up from the floor.
Obviously it wasn't a joke anytime he took time to formulate a picture and type what he was thinking!
Do you believe comics don't picture their jokes in their heads before they're verbalized?
“It’s joke a joke” a racist/Republican favorite line.
Araya Hope democrat favorite line - That’s racist! 🥜
Araya Hope every mother who has a thug for son favorite line is he didn't do nothing
Meso Rite because you guys are
Araya Hope you are totally correct, i have noticed this time and again. Just look up the term "Schrodinger's douchebag"
Schrodinger's douchebag: one who makes douchebag statements (particularly sexist, racist or otherwise bigoted ones, or threats of violence, etc) then decides whether they were “just joking” or dead serious based on whether other people around you approve or not.
Jack Ban butthurt libtard
This is a cop who should be FIRED!
"medel" ?? Go back to school and get an education before you attempt to speak with the adults, moron !
Since the POS Trump became fake president, America is getting more insane by the day.
Why is this guy a cop again? He seems to have no real interest in the point of his career.
It was NOT a joke.
No such thing as a joke in that context
"Many a true word is spoken in jest.
"
A literal meaning; that the truth is often found in comic utterances.
Unfortunately this cop represents the values of the community where he lives, the church where he attends propaganda sessions, and the values of the local police department.
I like how these kinds of people are keyboard warriors online but when their word goes public, they like to hide. It's literally Schlossberg Syndrome gone amuck...
Logan Cooper yup. When confronted the cowards run and try to backpedal.
Logan Cooper It’s easy to hack their camera phones and post their photos and contact info. We do it all of the time to Nazis on this page. Most turn out to be bots. Almost 98 percent are not even real.
This was NOT a joke! No he wasn’t literally asking some old lady to run him down but he said he ‘hoped’ and if it actually happened I guarantee he would have taken great joy in it happening.
Hey if the cop wants more guns in every hand and dark alley to make his job harder and possibly lethal, who am I to argue.
The American police are so childish.
Don't generalize.
Fire him.
... and you say he has a gun with a license to shoot at will.
our country is messed up
Why would this person even have a job anymore? He should not be a police officer. How is this even possible?
How much do you want to bet the cop is a right winger?
Get Social umm...idk he seems like it.
He 100% implied inciting violence and as a civil servant he should know better! it doesn't matter if you're pro gun or not and I believe in the 2nd amendment Jesus Christ man you know some nut job is going to listen to you and take action... don't do that
If a kid jokes on Facebook about school shooting or even posts a pic of a gun he will be reprimanded, didn’t the kid who “sold” his school on Craigslist as senior prank get in trouble for saying the school was on sale due to upcoming loss of students (kids graduating...).
The cop should lose his badge, he wants to be funny the great hand in your badge and go work at comedy club.
I don't believe it was a joke. Don't explain it away. He put the hit out.
Of course he meant he hoped that. Take him at his word that’s not a joke
Will this police officer be fired? I'm not holding my breath.
Prerequisite for being a cop is racism...go take the test. Those with high IQ's are not selcted to be cops....that's a fact.
fire the cop
This guy must not have kids. I am so proud of the Parkland student activists. They are to coin a phrase "Sick and tired, and NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE"....please, please tell me this is a military veteran with PTSD and he does'nt know what he is saying. There is a policy for police dept.s across the country to hire war vets. Its no excuse and he should be fired, but at least that would explain his crazy statements. I am very scared for our country with this kind of individual in law enforcement.
Lenny, I have heard him speak countless times. He is a very bright young man. His family owns guns. He just doesnt want crazy kids to be able to get machine guns. Are you for real? I own guns, no one is trying to take my rifle away ... come on with the same old NRA bullshit.
dee moe, david hogg is not a parkland survivor. he was home at the time of the shooting, got on his bike and rode to school when heard the news. this is according to his own words the day of the tragedy. as far as machine guns, they have been extremely restricted since 1934 and banned since 1986. no kid is getting them, much less crazy ones. you are a liar, you do not own a gun, otherwise you would not be so ignorant of the laws. a machine gun was not used at parkland, neither were high capacity magazines.
Louis, ALL the students that werent killed are survivors. The crazy shooter had an automatic weapon. Im so tired of this BS. We need more gun control in this country, and more mental health care. I was an NRA member in my youth when they advocated gun safety and hunting etiquette. I ended my membership when they became political and tools for the gun manufacturers. NO ONE is buying into the insanity anymore.
dee moe, dear moron, there was no automatic weapon at parkland, in fact in no mass shooting has there been an automatic weapon used. the shooter had a semiautomatic rifle with 10 round magazines. why do you lie? btw, automatic weapons wouldn't help to kill more people they would just run out of ammo or overheat the barrel in no time. you are a lying sack of ahit, you don't know what an automatic weapon is. btw, i am no nra member.
Love you to Louis xoxo muaw
Yeah they just kids right, nothing they say is important right, they are easily influenced by any adult with an agenda or any party. Right?
Damn people are just outright stupid.
He should be removed from any and all law enforcement.
These kids have my support!
Cue in the " The cop did nothing wrong!" comments by conservatives.
