Mohamed Noor was the 1st Muslim on the Minneapolis police force. In 2016, Minneapolis Mayor Betsy Hodges expressed her excitement about that fact. Hodges wasn’t excited because Mohamed Noor had the skills necessary to become a fine police officer. She was only excited because he represented a religious group she wanted to court. And it became increasingly clear that Mohamed Noor was not cut out to be a policeman.
He did not have the temperament for it. If he hadn’t killed Justine Ruszczyk Damond, he would have done something similar at some point in time.

Mohamed Noor was not competent to be a cop. If he had not been a Muslim, he never would have been on the force at all. Identity politics kills. If there is any lesson to be drawn from the killing of Justine Ruszczyk Damond, that was it. The city of Minneapolis was so eager to have a Muslim police officer that it hired a man who had been found incompetent to hold the job. Even worse, Minneapolis officials did not fire him
even when he proved that he was indeed unfit.
