An Ohio police officer, who called the suicide of a Black Lives Matter activist a “happy ending,” has been fired, according to WDTN report on Monday.
Lee Cyr posted “Love a happy ending” on a Facebook post about the news of MarShawn McCarrel II. McCarrel, 23, fatally shot himself on the steps of the Ohio Statehouse in Columbus in February.
Cyr was fired from the Fairborn Police Department after an internal investigation because his actions are “in violation of the department’s social media policy,” in a statement given to the television station
Cyr was previously on paid leave. He was off-duty when it was posted.
Love a happy…wait, is that tasteless?
And return his pay from his paid leave?
Obviously this guy is too stupid to be a cop. The problem with social media is other people see your posts. If you can’t defend them morally or ethically you should keep your mouth shut.
Now there’s a TRUE Trump acolyte. With that wistful, come-hither look of cluelessness and fascism.
This guy obviously did not believe in the self-evident truism, “Black Live Matter.”
Not to him they don’t. Nice that his bosses now feel pressure to act, not like before,
