'We Don't Follow the Constitution' Cop Resigns After Outrage

• http://www.prisonplanet.com, Paul Joseph Watson

A New Jersey police officer who caused outrage after being caught on video claiming he didn't have to follow the Constitution because Obama had "decimated" the bill of rights has resigned.

As we reported yesterday in a story that was linked on the Drudge Report before going viral, Helmetta Police Officer Richard Recine responded to resident Steve Wronko's complaint about corruption at a local animal shelter and violations of his first and fourth amendment rights by remarking, "Obama just decimated the freakin' Constitution, so I don't give a damn. If he doesn't follow the Constitution, we don't have to."

The outburst prompted a huge backlash, with the video receiving over 220,000 views and hundreds of irate comments.
