California drifts towards dangerous anti-Americanism more every day, and today’s drift reveals that the city of Belmont hired an illegal alien who was charged with rape to be… a city police officer.
The city didn’t do this all on its own, of course. The state recently passed a law to allow cities to hire noncitizens as police officers. The law was pushed by Democrat Governor Gavin Newsome himself.
And now, we get the results as Felipe Gomes was given a badge and a gun but now he is being accused of rape.
Per The Blaze:
Redwood City Police arrested Gomes at the Belmont Police Department headquarters on April 22, according to RCPD Sgt. Victor Figueroa. Gomes was reportedly charged under penal code 261 (a) (1), which concerns knowingly having sexual intercourse with an individual incapable of giving consent because of a mental disorder or developmental or physical disability.
The Brazilian national was booked into the San Mateo County Office Main Jail then later released on a $100,000 bail bond.
He was finally fired, the city noted.
The foreign national took his oath of office on Dec. 10 during a Belmont City Council ceremony. When introducing his new recruits, Belmont Police Chief Ken Stenquist noted, “He was in the Brazilian Air Force and part of their air force police. He was a full-time police soldier and left that position when he moved to the United States. He enjoys practicing jiu jitsu and attending church when he’s not working.”
According to KGO-TV, prior to hiring Gomes, Chief Stenquist received warnings from the San Mateo County Sheriff’s Office and the East Palo Alto Police Department that they had both rejected the Brazilian national on account of his 2017 domestic violence arrest.
This is what happens when you change the rules to hire foreigners to be police officers.
But, the criminality we are inviting into our police departments aside, think about this outrage on another level.
What California has done is to put someone who has no standing as a citizen a gun and a badge to arrest actual Americans! How disgusting is it that citizens can now be arrested by foreigners who have no love or allegiance to our very country!!
It really is outrageous.
