St. Louis County police officer, who was seen pushing a CNN anchor during protests in Ferguson, Mo., this week, was suspended from duty after a controversial video surfaced, in which he fashions himself as a merciless killer.

�I personally believe in Jesus Christ as my lord and savior, but I�m also a killer,� said officer Dan Page, a 35-year veteran, in the video. �I�ve killed a lot. And if I need to, I�ll kill a whole bunch more. If you don�t want to get killed, don�t show up in front of me. I have no problems with it. God did not raise me to be a coward." Page added, �I�m into diversity � I kill everybody. I don�t care."

St. Louis County Police Chief Jon Belmar said Page has been suspended, pending a review by the internal affairs unit, which will begin Monday. The video was brought to Belmar�s attention by CNN's Don Lemon.

�With the comments on killing, that was obviously something that deeply disturbed me immediately,� Belmar told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

The comments, which were made before members of the Christian organization, the Oath Keepers, also included his story of going to Kenya in search of "undocumented president," Barack Obama. �I flew to Africa, right there, and I went to our undocumented president�s home,� Page said, holding a picture of him in Kenya. �He was born in Kenya.�

Page has been ordered to take a psychiatric exam, according to Belmar, who issued a public apology for Page's remarks. �He does not represent the rank-and-file of [the] St. Louis County Police Department,� Belmar told CNN in a Friday on-air interview.
