Well congratulations, that's what I've been saying, that Italy is racist but of course there are reasons for this. Most black immigrants work illegally in factories and live segregated, so you don't really get to see the hard-working ones. You only get to see the ones who come here just to do nothing and sit on benches in parks all day. Of course the people are going to generalize and won't have a good opinion on them.

No company in their right mind would hire and keep a racist.

Would you expect a company in Italy to keep a nazi? If they do then wow Italian companies must not have certain values.

Not necessarily. Again not condoning this, but I doubt this would have a major impact on the company's profits or even image at all. I haven't seen the name of the company brought up in this thread once.

I think things are getting to the point where the public is forcing companies to be law enforcement in a way to punish employees for unacceptable speech, and I don't know if that's really a good thing.

Why do people act like people being racist online in no way affects their ability to do their job? What black person would want to work with a real estate agent who was on Facebook calling blacks monkeys? Wouldn't you think his lack of respect for blacks could affect his ability to work with them and treat them like every other client? Employers are doing the right thing by firing people who could negatively affect their businesses.

Good.

What about the rest? How many aren't fired yet?

But that doesn't make it okay when you said they shouldn't be fired and your happy your country does not have SJW?

You're basically accepting hate. You're saying it's okay to be racist or a prejudice person and not be reprimanded for such actions.

And what's the big deal about SJW? At least they're standing for something, it may be extreme sometimes but they fight for social justice and not accepting racism.

But they get fired too lol. And why trying to downplay racism to a child by bringing another completely different topic to the table? ...

OMG this. They could've just got him to do community service in the slums or stg and transfer him to another department. Racism is definitely ain't right but considering everything that happened here, sacking someone over something like this is pushing it. If everyone being racist online needs sacking, America's mascot wouldn't be a bald eagle.

so disgusting
this made me sick
i hope him & all of his disgusting friends never get jobs again

Good

I know you try the hardest, but think this through: do you think a prospective client or current client would want to be represented by this guy?

Maybe if the client is Fox News, they would want a guy who encourages racism and plays victim when caught and apprehended, but most companies would stay clear from this guy, especially if they are looking for marketing/PR work.

Karma

His friends should be fired too

To be fair... they were most likely joking.

But yeah, pretty deserved, if only because this guy was dumb enough to post it ON FACEBOOK for everyone to see

I guess it depends on the industry, but I don't know. If Wal-Mart doesn't fire a racist employee, will people stop shopping at Wal-Mart? I doubt it. I think it depends on the amount of people who know about the incident + care about it + will care over time. I feel like that will be relatively minuscule. You may in fact lose a customer two, but will that matter in the grand scheme? Especially if the employee is a really good one.

Those defending him are in the minority, thank God.

Even Donald Trump got ride of his racist campaign staffer.

Companies have a zero tolerance policy against bigots and that's how it should be.

I can't believe THAT many people posted racist comments with no one checking them for it

Good for the company for getting rid of that racist trash

Has anyone seen this? A video saying he is a victim..
