LEE COUNTY, FL -

The Lee County Sheriff's Office wasted little time firing an employee who admitted to using racist language on-line. According to an internal affairs report, Deputy Jean Lopez was fired in April for posting racial comments on his Facebook page.

The report said Lopez posted a video in March of a black man talking about his company and his competitors using explicit language and street terms. The report said Lopez wrote, "Can someone please tell me what the [expletive] this monkey is saying?"

The report also stated Lopez wrote, "Get a real life [expletive] monkey."

The video was originally posted on Facebook by Street FX Motorsport & Graphics. According to the report, Lopez told investigators he and his friends used the term to describe "something stupid." Lopez said he would never use the term in uniform.

Officials with the sheriff's office said the post violated their policy.

"It's not acceptable and that's why he's out of a job," Lee County Sheriff Mike Scott said.

“Hate is too great a burden to bear. It injures the hater more than it injures the hated.” – Coretta Scott King

"Oppressive language does more than represent violence; it is violence; does more than represent the limits of knowledge; it limits knowledge." -Toni Morrison

He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it.

He sure won't since he doesn't get to wear that uniform anymore. What a tool.

Now all we have to do is wait for lost to come around to bemoan the lack of tolerance for ex-deputy Lopez.

I see a gofundme page in Mr. Lopez's future...

I did not call anyone on here an idiot. Stop that.

MBD is pointing out how some members have let it be known they support bigotry by donating to these causes that are clearly hateful. He's talking more about them, than you.

Focus young Daniel-san...

No?

Your words. Now, we have members that fessed up to having helped them. How is that not calling them idiots?

Well, I didn't know, nor do I have names of any VJ members who have supported this.
