The recent dust-up regarding Chief Russell Gauvin’s ability to lead the Maine Capitol Police in an objective manner rightfully has stirred some public concern.

There is his right to express his views, and a citizen’s right to protection, under the same Constitution, if citizens are protesting something Chief Gauvin doesn’t agree to. He could have saved himself a lot of trouble if he’d kept quiet about his views instead of broadcasting it to the world over Facebook.

He should be dismissed for pure lack of common sense.
