We Regret To Inform You The Hot Hurricane Cop Is Anti-Semitic

The Milkshake Duck is arguably the most relevant neologism of 2017. Extrapolating from a @pixelatedboat tweet, the axiom basically states that any viral star with fifteen minutes of fame will ultimately have something horrifying in their past that will turn their fame into infamy in a flash.

"The whole internet loves Milkshake Duck, a lovely duck that drinks milkshakes! (5 seconds later) We regret to inform you the duck is racist," goes the tweet.

On Saturday, the entire internet fell in love with Gainesville Police Department officers Nordman, Hamill and Rengering after a photograph of the trio went viral on social media during Hurricane Irma, granting them the nickname "Hot Florida Cops."

(One week later.)

We regret to inform you that one of the Hot Florida Cops is anti-semitic.

Specifically, Officer Michael Hammill, the bearded fellow in the center of the viral photo, has a long history of doing Jewish jokes on Facebook, the kind that would make edgiest memer tug at their collar.

On September 14th, Gainesville.com reported that the Gainesville Police Department was investigating a complaint against Hammill for various Facebook posts that made anti-semitic comments, including jokes about Adolf Hitler and the Holocaust:

"so I find it funny that people will talk about how our government needs to do something about our economy and in reality it’s YOU who needs to stop taking advantage of our system and get a life and do something with your life. Gotta love reality when it hits you in the face. Stupid people annoy me. Put them in an oven and deal with them the Hitler way. Haha.”

Additionally, Facebook user Alu Soto compiled many of Officer Hammill's questionable posts.

The original viral post that brought the hot officers to the world has been deleted by the Gainesville Police Department, who will not comment on the matter until they complete their investigation.

After a year of the Milkshake Duck, perhaps the truism for 2018 will be "never post online, ever."
