The Buffalo Police Union Has a Path to Clear Itself
07/04/2026
The Buffalo News published what BuffScan best construes as a "text leak" wherein someone with access to the Buffalo Police Union's text channel wrote:
“Officers working the Trump rally be aware of people with extreme TDS as they pose a threat to people trying to peacefully assemble and voice their right to free speech,” the police union told members. “This current city administration values the libtard ways more the (sic) celebrating this great nations (sic) 250th birthday.”
That's not cool.
If the Buffalo Police Union really stands behind the text that somehow made its way out under its communication auspice, they have truly devolved in only a way that an under-resourced low morale "police" organization does.
Say no more about convincing people that BPD has low morale and that nobody wants to be a police officer, as the union often does. That text is now the union's proof.
And that text is well example of the reason.
That being said, the actual Buffalo news article doesn't identify the actual author and can't be certain of who it is. It was just a text that went out. It could just be one foaming member, no doubt reflective of many in the department to be sure, but still not unlike a varied voice blathering out that you might find in a Facebook post comment.
The Buffalo Police Union still has that shred of a stand to clear itself with. They need to come out hard against this. Otherwise, yes, the state of policing in Buffalo is exactly as bad as they tell everyone. Hands down.
