The ACLU of Georgia calls an upcoming police training course on Islam in America “inflammatory, hateful and potentially unconstitutional.”
The eight-hourcourse about Muslims set for Thursday was organized by the Barrow County Sheriff’s Office and approved by the Georgia Association of Chiefs of Police, ACLU legal director Sean Young said in a news release.
But Frank Rotondo, the GACP’s executive director, said he has pulled his organization’s approval for police chiefs to get the training.
The instructor is David Bores, a former police chief in Woodstock and retired U.S. Army lieutenant colonel who has taught criminal justice courses at local universities.
