A Nebraska state senator has called on Senator Ernie Chambers of Omaha to apologize for anti-police remarks made during a committee hearing. Chambers has refused.
Senator Beau McCoy of Omaha objects to Chambers declaring that the police are like ISIS.

McCoy says Chambers should apologize to the police.
Chambers counters McCoy is only going for the sound bite.

Chambers says he made the remarks in context of criticizing an Omaha officer for killing a robbery suspect last month.
