So is every single member of the Dearborn Police Department ...


In agreement of being prejudicial against Muslims in their community? Even at the orders of the governor, wouldn't there be one policeman, sergeant, captain, lieutenant, hell, the mayor of the city, thinking that this is a horrendous idea?

I live in Michigan - near Dearborn - and know many in law enforcement - both family and friends. This depiction of police is DISGUSTING. But I wouldn't expect less from Hollywood. I nearly kicked the show to the curb with all the generalizations of liberal hate on display. Which ones you ask?

1) Cops are bad
2) Military is bad
3) Republicans are bad

Please - peddle this liberal CRAP someplace else.

Taylor police weren't as bad this depiction. Westland police were almost as bad.

The ENTIRE department? 

I didn't get a copy of their internal memo but the number of complaints against them almost substantiated it.

It's a stupid plot, but they are at least not gunning down the people on the sidewalks....

Yep

It is a completely preposterous scenario. Dearborn is 40% Arab-American. Muslims are part of every walk of life in that community, including the police and city council. There is no way the local community would ever obey that order. The governor would have to send in state police or the national guard.
