    Default Pulse nightclub hero fired before he can collect pension

    http://abcnews.go.com/US/pulse-night...ry?id=51613661



    A Florida police officer who was hailed a hero for swiftly rescuing a victim in the Pulse nightclub shooting last year will be dismissed from the force at the end of the month.

    Omar Delgado was among the first officers to respond to the attack at the gay nightclub in Orlando on June 12, 2016. The Eatonville police officer was credited with pulling victim Angel Colon to safety after gunman Omar Mateen opened fire on clubgoers, killing 49 people.
    Colon, who was shot multiple times, told ABC News in an interview last year that he would have "bled to death" if not for the officer who rescued him roughly 25 minutes after gunfire erupted, allowing him to get life-saving treatment.
    Delgado told ABC affiliate WFTV in Orlando that he has been on light duty since the massacre because he suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder. Delgado said his department has deemed him unfit for duty and he was told Monday that his last day on the job would be Dec. 31, six months before he qualifies for his pension from the town.
    He has been a member of the Eatonville Police Department for over nine years.

    They should give him his pension, this is not right.

    Give? Isn't that so typically Liberal.

    I'm curious how someone can get a pension with 9 years service.

    It's not about what he does. It's about them supporting someone getting something for which they haven't met the qualifications of doing so. It's the mentality of it's close enough.

    Too bad he didn't shoot a couple of unarmed black suspects - they would have given him a medal.

    Liberals have always supported police, we would just like to see those that commit crimes prosecuted for them. It is sad you have to misrepresent the position we take on this issue.

    The problem is you automatically assume that any action they take you don't like is a crime.
