Police department goes for ‘unity’ with new Arabic-language patch * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh

The police department in Dearborn, Michigan, which has a large population of Muslims, has gone for “unity” with a new Arabic-language patch for officers to wear.

It states, “Dearborn Heights Police,” in Arabic.

A report at Fox News said the patch for now is “optional.”

But U.S. Rep. Randy Fine, R-Fla., suggested there is reason for concern.

“They said their goal was to bring sharia law to America. You should’ve believed them. Pray for Michigan.”

The department announced, “”The Dearborn Heights Police Department is proud to share a new optional patch that our officers may wear as part of their uniform.”

It added, “This patch was created by Officer Emily Murdoch, who designed it to reflect and honor the diversity of our community – especially the many residents of Arabic descent who call Dearborn Heights home. By incorporating Arabic script alongside English, this patch represents unity, respect, and our shared commitment to service. We are proud of Officer Murdoch’s creativity and dedication in helping our department better represent the people we serve.”
