Dallas cops ticket people for not speaking english
Dallas Police Chief David Kunkle said this afternoon that his officers have written at least 39 citations to people over the past three years for not speaking English.
Apologizing publicly to the city's Spanish-speaking community, the chief said all officers and supervisors involved will be investigated for dereliction of duty. All pending citations will be dismissed, and people who paid fines will be reimbursed.
"I was stunned that this would happen," Kunkle said at a news conference.
Good grief. Cant say I'm surprised though. I wonder what they do to people with Australian accents.
