The controversy swirling around Beyonce's performance at Super Bowl 50 on Sunday, February 7, continues to grow.
Rudy Guiliani and others have criticized the singer for saluting the Black Panther Party during the show because they feel the organization was anti-police.
The Miami Fraternal Order of Police are now calling for all law enforcement agencies across America to boycott Beyonce's concerts.
“The fact that Beyoncé used this year’s Super Bowl to divide Americans by promoting the Black Panthers and her anti-police message shows how she does not support law enforcement,” Javier Oritz President of The Miami FOP said in the press release. “We ask all law enforcement labor organizations to join our boycott across the country and to boycott all of her concerts.”
The Houston native will kick off her"Formation World Tour."at Marlins Park in Miami on April 27. Ortiz told CBS Miami that officers don't want to provide security for the event.
"It was a unanimous vote," he said. "We're not going to voluntarily show up there and sign up to work for a woman. A woman that has portrayed a message that is anti-police."
Beyonce's video for her latest single titled"Formation"is something that Ortiz also finds offensive.
In it the singer celebrates her African American roots, tackles police brutality and in one scene, stands on top of a sinking police cruiser.
Not all members of the Miami Police Department agree with Ortiz's call for a boycott. Major Delrich Moss says Ortiz works for the police department, but only speaks for the union he represents.
"I've talked to some people who were at that meeting. They're saying if there was a vote taken, it was a vote of one because they saw no vote," Moss told CBS Miami.
What's your take on this proposed Beyonce boycott by police?

It's appropriate that Yo Gotti named his new album "The Art of Hustle" because he learned from a very young age that he had to grind in the streets to get what he wanted.
In the documentary titled "Born Hustler" the Memphis rapper introduces us to his mother, Geraldine Mims a.k.a Gerry.
"I was in the streets," Gerry says. "Young ... boosting. I went from boosting to selling pills to the big things. That's what I did for many years."
We also meet Anthony "Jook" Mims, Gotti's older brother.
"My mom real big, like she real known in North Memphis. She was like our John Gotti, really," Jook explains. "She supplied a lot of people in our apartments. She had that respect."
Gotti took the things he learned in the streets and applied them to his career. He's a success story by every definition and proof that as a young black man coming from a rough environment you can go legitimate and become a role model.
"Everybody went to jail," Gotti says. "It ain't no fucking rocket science that I was going to. I knew that and I had accepted that, but I was trying to beat the time if I could. If I could I was trying to beat the time, my time before the time came to switch my hustle. Which was the art of hustle. It's to take these same steps, these same rules, these same laws, these same principles and apply 'em. Into music, into real estate, into the restaurant business, into the trucking business, into the clothing business. Into all the shit that I do. That's the art of hustle."
Yo Gotti's new album "The Art of Hustle" has arrived in stores. The Collective Music Group boss locked down features from K. Michelle, Lil Wayne, Future, 2 Chainz, Pusha T, Timbaland and E-40.

The Estate of James Yancey has revived J Dilla’s longstanding company PayJay as a functioning imprint to release Dilla’s long lost vocal album, The Diary on April 15th, in conjunction with Mass Appeal Records. Initially intended for release in 2002, The Diary is the final batch of unissued material that Dilla had assembled for release during his lifetime, lending crucial insight into the producer’s prowess and thought process in the period leading up to his break with the major label system and the extremely fertile period that followed (which encompassed the making of the canonical classics Ruff Draft, Jaylib, and Donuts). The Diary features vocal performances by J Dilla, Snoop Dogg, Bilal, Kokane, Frank and Dank, Nottz and Boogie, over production by Dilla, Madlib, Pete Rock, Hi-tek, Nottz, House Shoes, Supa Dave West, Bink! and Karriem Riggins.

Chris Brown knows a hot song when he hears it. The superstar singer/songwriter will often put his own spin on tracks he likes, so it's not surprising that he was recently filmed in the studio remixing 50 Cent's Sonny Digital-produced banger "I'm the Man."
After Nike terminated their contract with Manny Pacquiao on Wednesday, February 17, because of anti-gay remarks, the boxer doesn't seem to feel the need to bite his tongue anymore.
On Thursday morning he posted an Instagram photo with Bible scripture captions.
One of them states that gays should be put to death.
Leviticus 20:13: "If a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads."
In another passage Pacquiao takes aim at his detractors.
Luke 6:22-23: "Blessed are you when people hate you, when they exclude you and insult you and reject your name as evil, because of the Son of Man. Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, because great is your reward in heaven. For that is how their ancestors treated the prophets."
The post had 18,000 likes before it was later deleted, but not before ABS-CBN was able to screen grab it.
Aswe previously reported, this controversy began earlier this week when Pac Man was being interviewed by TV5. He said at the time that men and women engaged in sexual acts with the same gender are "worse than animals"
"It's common sense. Will you see any animals where male is to male and female is to female?" The Filipino pugilist told TV5 on Monday, February 15. "The animals are better. They know how to distinguish male from female. If we approve [of] male on male, female on female, then man is worse than animals."

He later apologized in a video posted on his Twitter account.
"I'm sorry for hurting people by comparing homosexuals to animals," he says in a video. "Please forgive me for those I've hurt. God Bless!"

That wasn't enough to save his business relationship withNike. On Wednesday the company parted ways with the former champion after nine-years.
"We find Manny Pacquiao's comments abhorrent," the company said in a statement. "Nike strongly opposes discrimination of any kind and has a long history of supporting and standing up for the rights of the LGBT community."
Pacquiao will step into the ring for the last time when he and Timothy Bradley face off on April 9 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. The bout will air on HBO pay-per-view.
Will Pac Man's boxing legacy be tarnished by this controversy?
