Would you still hire someone who said this on their Facebook?


34 y/o Trump Supporter and Arizona DAD is FIRED from his job after he made a "joke" on Facebook about running down protesters with his truck!!

James Cobo wrote "You are all pathetic. Can't wait to drive through. 4x4 with push bumper will be sweet in this crowd. I named my lifted truck "trumper' before the anticipated protests for the Trump Rally in Phoenix."

He posted it 10 days after protesters were mowed down by a neo-nazi in Charlottesville and killed 32 y/o Heather Heyer

James used to work at West Valley Tires Point S and was fired where he was publicly denounced by the company

They said "West Valley Tires Point S wants to publicly stte we do not condoe or support violence or prejudice in anyway shape or form. We were recently made aware of a employee that posted outrageous posts and videos that are in no way affiliated with the positive news, values and appreciation we have for people in our community and throughout the world. That person is no longer affiliated with West Valley Tires Point S"

James backtracked and said it was a joke stating "I'm being made into a horrible person over a joke that was just meant to ruffle some feathers. I admit it was a tasteless joke, but keyword here it was a joke. If anybody was ever going to go and intentionally hurt people, why would they talk about it on social media publicly before doing it? I never hut anybody nor did i have the intent to. I never said i was actually going to hurt anybody with a vehicle, they assumed it. never would have thought it would be a big deal"

He didn't attend the rally over death threats and had to buy SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS for his house.

But then James took a JAB at the Heyer family and said "If you play in the road, you might get hit by a car. My parents taught me that when i was little. Now, her family has 225,000 because she played in the street, ad people feel sorry for her family. I don't care that i got fired, i already got another job. The only thing that upsets me about this situation is that adults are able to throw a tantrum and raise hell and get what they want by doing so. This is not how America is supposed to work"

Would you still hire someone who wrote this on their facebook? let's see if people would

James - Racist

I don't have to insult you. I have proven that you are a hypocrite and a fool. That's not insulting you, that's exposing you.

Oops. Yes I would fire, no I wouldn't hire, having opinions is okay but threatening terrorism especially right after recent events is not okay
I-I really needed this~~
Time to stomp some faces!!!
More censorship by the alt-left.
Wouldn't it kind of depend on what the job is? I mean if it's a very specialized job and the applicant is the one experienced and skilled at it, they would be valuable. Not all jobs and their requirements are equal.

I liked that he used the "IT'S A JOKE BRO"!!! defense. An underused one nowadays
He's going to need a lot of drinking partners now.

There are some jokes you do not post on facebook, this is one of them, and the protesters who obscure traffic should not be rewarded if they are stuck, protest all you want but DO NOT prevent traffic from flowing.

People who block traffic with protesting should be arrested cause people have places to go like work, maybe the hospital, or whatever other reason they are in the car on the road.

No

Freedom of speech was limited since day 1.

This is a threat and an act of terrorism so getting fired is a light punishment for what technically could have happened to him.

Freedom of speech only prevents him from being thrown in jail for his words rather than his actions. His employer has every right to sever ties with someone who has a mentality like that. It could affect how he and his co workers act around each other, if it's a customer centric job it could affect how they view the business. He made the decision to make those comments. There can be consequences when you do something like this.

Threatening to kill people is a legitimate reason for termination.
when you stub your toes it's the SJWs fualt.
Surely the FBI will take appropriate action against this extremist terrorist sympathizer who clearly articulated his plans to commit an attack. Any day now.

i wouldn't be surprised if he was put on some sort of watchlist

no one thinks he was actually intending to imminently go through with it though, soooooo

Eh. Do I think he's already planned to do it? No. do I think he would do it given the opportunity? That's harder to say. Most people don't just have those thoughts.

You're very optimistic
everyone seems to be okay with killing if its on their side.

both sides are funny
The second comment really takes it out of the "It was a joke!" territory, where he blames H Meyer for "playing in the street"

What if it was a super important job and they can't even find a replacement qualified?

Can you think of a job that only has one person anywhere capable of doing it?
It's unfortunate for that kid that his dad is dumb as fuck. Fair, next though.

It's pretty hard to find qualified brain surgeons and maybe just as hard to find an experienced, reliable guide for certain wilderness excursions. The point being is it would be easy to fire (or not even hire) someone who is just flipping burgers, but not all jobs are equal in their standards.

Side note: law enforcement might question this guy and keep an eye on him for his comments, but there's no way they'll do more than that because he didn' actually do anything and wasn't specific with his threat anyway.
