The posts include some of the most awful hate speech I've even seen. I hope the decision is swift and there is not any sympathy for this individual.

I am sure that the right decisions will be made. I fully support the fire company and am grateful for all they do.

It seems cut and dried because your statement clearly states “there is no place in our company for ugly and hateful rhetoric “. You need no further investigation. The written comment made by the perpetrator meets your criteria, plain and simple. A volunteer who shows hate for any group cannot be trusted. He needs to denied the privilege of being a part of your fire company. Investigation complete🤦🏻‍♀️

In this country you have freedom of speech , but you are not free from the consequences of the words you say. This is a prime example of that. The things he said are so far past ignorance that it is horrifying to think he was ever in a position to offer( or deny) life saving help to the people in my community.

Seems like not much to investigate. Anyone who states these opinions should not be permitted to be a part of any company, especially a first responder that is here to serve an entire community. He will show bias and hesitation that could cost lives. If you are looking for a loop hole in your bylaws, stop looking. This guy has no case and no judge will stand behind a lawsuit. You serve a community that does not want that person there, up to you now to do what is right and get him out.

In other words...nothing is being done and he gets to keep his job

What are you investigating. He wrote it and there is proof of it. This is how white supremacy spreads; do these feelings color how services are rendered to black folks?

I married in to a long line of proud fire fighters. I would like to believe that your fire company does not support this kind of racist behavior from one of your members.

I’m glad to see this is being addressed.

"investigating". So nothing's happening.

He should be fired immediately

Don't be hating the fire company, you just may need them one day.

One person from company made comments, not the Fire Company. I am sure they will do the right thing. Don't hate the whole company because of one person. That is the problem we are having. One person does or says something weong and whatever company they are with gets mistreated.

Not sure what happen but thank you for standing up against hate!!!!

so they’re investigating and haven’t let him go yet? despite having his post made public on twitter.

Has anything been decided yet

This guy needs to be dealt with yes, but calling him a "Trump supporter and Confederate Flag advocate" is just stirring the pot. It always has to be made political by some crybaby. I have a black brother in law. I am a huge Trump supporter. I think banning the Confederate flag is one the stupidest things ever, along with tearing down statues. The civil war and slavery was all hundreds of years ago. NO ONE in the US right now ever owned slaves. All the sudden now everybody is offended by this stuff?!?!? Give me a break. You're offended because the media tells you you are and like good little sheep, you follow right along. My brother in law is not offended by the statues, the flag or any of that stuff. He is offended by what REALLY matters.....racism. The flag can be banned, statues torn down, but the history is still there, and so is racism, and racism is still there because the media fans the flames of it by telling you you should be offended by the other stuff. THEY'RE driving the stake that is dividing the country. I was born in North East and lived there for 5 years till my father died. My side of the family was very populous in the county. I have since worked in Cecil County and visited family and friends in the county. In my opinion, the county is easily the most racist county in Maryland. The use of the N word is stronger there than anywhere else in Md. This guy is not the only problem the county has in public service or elsewhere, I can guarantee it. He needs to be punished. He needs to be banned from the fire department and blocked from working in any public service that deals with protecting the citizens of Cecil County. But be aware there are more, they all need to be sniffed out and removed. But don't make it a political Trump "thing". That has nothing to do with it.

too little, too late. has the racist firefighter been dealt with? has he been removed from his position? is he still serving in an active role where he could be putting the lives of this community at stake, simply because he hates black people? have there been criminal charges pressed? what about hate crimes? i am pretty sure these types of comments rise to the level of the FBI – Federal Bureau of Investigation.....
