Bun B used his platform to expose racism in the Houston Police Department and received a response from HPD for doing so. In an interview with TMZ, the UGK MC detailed what he’s learned from the department after putting one former cop and two current officers on blast for a racist Facebook post.
“The officer that originally posted this resigned about a week before this post went up,” he explained. “So, he was no longer a member of HPD when this post went up. But the other two officers, who are in the comment section, are still active Houston Police Department officers right now. They work out of the Westside Command Station in Houston.”
He added, “I’ve been told by the assistant police chief, deputy police chief, that they’re gonna be dealing with this expeditiously.”
Bun called attention last week to a racist post that was made by former HPD officer David Nguyen on June 26. While Nguyen is no longer part of the force, two other officers liked and commented on it via Facebook.
“Ok Officers #TeeTruong #VuongVu and #DavidNguyen…you think it’s funny comparing black people to monkeys?” Bun wrote on Instagram. “We know you work in Houston at the Westside Command Station. Let’s see what your commanders think about this. And the other Asians on this group chat in the comments? Keep that same energy. No apologies will do. Black people are tired being treated like animals!”

Art Acevedo, Houston’s Chief of Police, issued a statement saying the department was aware of the racist post on June 30. At the time, he noted an internal investigation was initiated to determine if any current officers were involved.
The incident highlighted by Bun wasn’t the only example of Houston police’s racism playing out on social media in June. A few weeks ago, another officer named Robert Clasen retired prior to a disciplinary review hearing for offensive online remarks he made about Black people.

This is The Offended Offended Generation. Meaning everybody’s offended by everyone else being offended…next they’ll be the Offended Offended Offended Offended Generation and then so after that…. we’re going to need whole lot of Offended Defenders up in this beast soon lol.

Think that was a side effect of too much syrup lol
Wait… so bun B just snitched on cops to another cop? LOL. Rich. Didn’t he recently shoot a black man for trying to rob his home and didn’t even get cuffed or taken to the station? That sounds REAL racist. Sarcasm. Stop feeding trolls. Oh, why are you following cops on Social Media?
I love how you white people come to hiphop pages and complain. Go listen to some rock and roll
Yeah. I’m a Latino moron. What exactly was the “complaint” in the above comment? LOL. I love how illiterate morons think any view that doesn’t cow side with theirs is a complaint or racism. I also love the way you assumed I was white. Hahahahaha
Certified suckas in this comment section…
Simple what we need to do is start fucking them up its that simple just like there doing us start fucking them up on sight
Smart. Play right into the hands of the people manipulating you into being killed and filling up our prison system. SMH maybe try to think for yourself, and look objectively at both sides of an argument. Don’t you find it strange that BLM disappeared since the last election, and about 6 months before THIS election it suddenly appears again?
If “the culture” (lmfao) cares about slavery so much they should all burn their Jordan’s that are not only made by slaves … but child slaves at that … being human doesn’t mean you are assured a life without struggle
Well I can’t disagree with the cop on that.
