'Dancing Cop' Fired for Protesting Dunkin Donuts Worker's #BlackLivesMatter Message

For more than 30 years, retired Officer Tony Lepore has brought good cheer to the city of Providence with the famous dance moves he'd perform while directing holiday traffic.

But he was turned down for the job this season because he protested a Dunkin Donuts restaurant whose employee had written #BlackLivesMatter on a cop's coffee cup.

The Providence police department said Lepore misrepresented the department and committed a "disservice" to the city.

But there's been a bit of good news for the retired officer: He's been hired across the river in East Providence to direct their holiday traffic.

    I would certainly hope the DD employee was fired on the spot.

    It is his right to protest being ill-treated. And I bet no looting was involved, in his protest...unlike the BLM idiots.
