I hope she gets her eyes stapled open permanently and then gets sentenced to watching every single minute of every WNBA game live the rest of the season

Big difference between making a dark joke and posting something like this on someone's twitter. Doing this really makes me question how much rational thought this woman is capable of.

That would be pretty messed up to get fired over a comment posted on a closed network.

I guess that is slightly better, but still pretty terrible.

If you are going to be that mean, at least be funny.

It is different to broadcast in a public forum such as twitter rather amongst friends/family.

Pretty sure a clear distinction between "dark jokes" and plain stupidity can be made

Someone with the common sense of a ten year old would know that those comments are not acceptable

Your point? Most employers, especially John Hopkins, holds their employees to a high professional standard. It's common knowledge that whatever you post on the internet can be used against you.

Who decides what is acceptable?in comedy attempts no matter if you find it funny or not...it's all acceptable or none Is. Every joke u tell will offend someone somewhere...but ignore it if only you find it funny

I don't use Twitter, but it looks like the tweet would have gone out to her followers as a joke (a poor one). She didn't address it to Torrey Smith.

But people are reacting as if she tweeted directly to him...she didn't..she wrote it and other people brought it to their attention.

Everyone has to get their pitchforks out so they can laugh at sandusky jokes.

I'll answer your question with a question

If you were to post those comments on twitter and your employer found out about it, what do you think would happen?

Thankfully my employer doesn't fold under false outrage. She would tell everyone to shut up and people would forget about it inaday.amazing thing about false outrage is when they get told no they move to another topic until someone folds to appease blood lust
