A Louisiana police officer was fired over a Facebook comment that said it was "unfortunate" more black people did not die of the coronavirus.
The chief of police in Kaplan, about 87 miles southwest of Baton Rouge, said Officer Steven Aucoin commented under a local news station's live feed of the governor's coronavirus news conference on May 15. Aucoin was fired later that day.
CBS affiliate KLFY in Lafayette, Louisiana, reported that Aucoin's post was made on its Facebook page in response to another commenter who wrote,"virus that was created to kill all the BLACKS is death." "Well it didn't work," Aucoin wrote, "how unfortunate," according to screenshots shown by KLFY.

Why people even privately say things like that in a professional setting is beyond me. Why some make comments like that on public social media is just idiotic.

Would it have been acceptable if he said Dumb people?

Social media was the worst thing to ever happen to stupid people.

In a different, unrelated story, Tyrone said all White folks should die as per Twitter. His award ceremony is tomorrow at 7.

If he said old people or millennials it would be ok.

He should just lie and say he was “hacked” like all the NBA players

Watergate does not bother me. Does your conscience bother you (tell the truth)?

Stupid, and so was the comment he was replying too. I get what he was trying to say (hopefully), but damn that was really f'kn dumb. You can't keep that on the police force, demonstrates poor judgment (at best).

If you don't have traditional social media you'll never post something stupid when you are drunk and get fired. Just saying.
Not defending the cop. He's a moron but I've seen other people get fired for posting stupid shite on social media.
