The Florida assistant state attorney was suspended on Friday for a social media post describing Orlando, Florida, as “a melting pot of 3rd world miscreants and ghetto thugs” in the wake of the deadly mass shooting in Orlando, according to Orlando television station WESH.

Kenneth Lewis was suspended for violating the State Attorney’s Office social media policy, Angela Starke, a spokeswoman for the office, told WESH.

“Downtown Orlando has no bottom. The entire city should be leveled. It is void of a single redeeming quality. It is a melting pot of 3rd world miscreants and ghetto thugs. It is void of culture,” Lewis wrote on Facebook, according to a screengrab obtained by WESH. “If you live down there you do it at your own risk and at your own peril. If you go down there after dark there is seriously something wrong with you.”

“Disney does everything in its power to shield visitors of Disney from its northern blight. That doesn’t change reality. Disney may be the happiest place on earth but Orlando is a national embarassment [sic],” he continued. “If this is an act of domestic terrorist it is so important that we don’t publish the religion, name, or motive of the terrorist as not to offend anyone.”

Lewis previously got himself into hot water in 2014 for a post wising a “Happy Mother’s day to all the crack hoes out there.” Following that post, he was reassigned and had to take sensitivity training, according to WESH.

    Yeah. Looks like sensitivity training didn’t take in a mind drowning in a raw sewage cesspool of cynicism.
