Maryland state employee fired after posting statements in support of Kenosha shooting suspect Kyle Rittenhouse on Facebook Rebecca Tan, Washington Post, 8/30/2020

In recent days, Arthur “Mac” Love IV, deputy director of the Governor’s Office of Community Initiatives, posted statements and shared memes on his public Facebook page in support of Kyle Rittenhouse, the 17-year-old charged with homicide after opening fire on a group of protesters in Kenosha, k*****g two and injuring one.

Online Facebook users identified Love as a state employee. Saturday afternoon, Love was terminated.

In a conversation with The Washington Post on Sunday, Love said that he had learned about his firing through cable news on Saturday, and only received official notice of his termination Sunday morning.

July 24, Love weighed in on the clashes between armed officers and protesters in Portland, Ore., writing, “So at what point in time does the local m*****a gather to defend the local police from these radical anarchists and terrorists...”

Love’s responsibilities will be assumed by Kevin Craft, administrative director of the Commission on African Affairs.

If he was posting on his personal account and not doing it while on the job or giving any indication that someone might think it is an official position, he should not have been fired. If he did it at work or on an official account or gave the impression that it was an official position, even if on his personal account, he should have been disciplined but not fired.

If I was fired for doing other things on my job, etc. as you described... I probably would accept the consequences, but on my time... it just doesn't sit well with me.

It would be another matter, if he worked in a diner and posted that he was going to poison someone's food or drink! I think, management would be reckless not to fire him.

True. But if he was making a threat of poisoning someone at his place of work, he should have been fired and law enforcement should have been notified of the threat.

Constitutional attorneys will be clamoring to take this case, and make it VERY public.
Enough is enough, and I hope the guy has a nice, luxurious retirement.

If you are an American and you voice the t***h on twitter, the c*******ts will "tattle-tale" to mommy Lenin who will complain to her perverted state employee and you will get fired from your government job. Who wants to work for a Soviet bureacracy? These "little pissants" are nothing more than "brainwashed" wheel spinners who can't get a job anywhere in the private sector. Hopefully, we can one day get rid of them and send them back to their asylum.

Isn't that interesting that now that other video has come out that Rittenhouse was fired on I think 3 times, was chased and projectiles were thrown at him, that he called 911 with no luck, and was not running away but was running TO the police, that this firing just MIGHT have been a boo boo!
