In response, Muskegon announced on Thursday that the police department had opened an internal investigation “after a social media post was brought to our attention accusing an officer of being in possession of certain items associated with a white supremacy group.” The local government wrote in a Facebook post that the police officer was “immediately placed on administrative leave, pending a thorough investigation.”


I'm curious, do the people defending Strzok in this thread feel the same way about the officer in this story?  After all, these are just objects in the man's home right? 

Yes. I think if something like that is discovered there is just cause to investigate whether there has been any racial bias in their work. If there has not, they should not be fired. I would advocate for counseling on public image and ensure there is either a lack of mention of the police department anywhere on the page or the white supremacist stuff is taken down.

There is, however, still a difference in posting on social media and texts between two parties. But I still support a person's right to freedom of expression in that way as long as their actions are not biased.

Edit: Just saw the follow up post. Seems fair to me and what I was saying all along.
