Racist Asshole Fired After Mocking Coworkers Child

A man on Facebook posted a picture of himself and a 3 year old black boy, and then proceeded to mock the child on the social media site. Not only did he make fun of the boy but other coworkers and friends did too. Gerod Roth took the picture with young Cayden Jayde who is the son of one of his colleagues. He and his fellow workers who were mocking the boy have been fired. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian (The Point) hosts of The Young Turks discuss.

Should Roth have been fired? Why do these people think its funny to mock a little boy just because he’s black? Let us know in the comments below.

“Internet trolls rarely make sense but they are usually tucked away to the dark corners of comment sections or pass themselves off as eggs on Twitter. But now we’ve reached the juncture when racist internet trolls are so shameless that they freely use their Facebook profiles and full names to spout their disgusting nonsense.

That was the case when a defenseless and rather adorable three-year-old boy became the center of racist and abusive Facebook comments after a white Georgia man decided to sneak a selfie with the child and post it to his page for all his trollish friends to lampoon, implying that the child was a slave and referring to him as “sambo.”
