The guys that made racist comments about the little black boy on FB are being fired from their jobs one after the other

The guy who posted the photo of his colleague's son on his Facebook page & let his followers/friends make racist comments about the boy (read here), has been fired from his job. 2 other guys who made the comments have been fired.

The guy's company, Polaris Marketing Group, wrote on Facebook
This morning I was disgusted to learn that one of my former employees made several racially charged comments on his personal Facebook page. Even worse, the comments were directed toward the son of another employee.
It breaks my heart that Sydney and her adorable son Cayden were subjected to such hateful, ignorant and despicable behavior. Cayden visits my office almost every afternoon after daycare, he's sat at my dinner table and I consider him a part of the PMG family.

The atrocious lies, slander and racism he and his mother have been forced to endure are wholly intolerable. Myself and the entire PMG family in no way condones this kind of behavior and would never willingly associate with anyone who does.

It has no place in the world.
PMG has terminated the employee responsible and will ensure that none of the businesses that we associate with will ever do business with him again.
Sincerely,
Michael Da Graca Pinto
President

      Way to go PGM. I'm so delighted to read this. People should now know that you can't get away with stupidity. Good.
      When i read the original post, i was really hurt and felt bad for the little boy.

      You don't just open your mouth and talk trash about your fellow human and get away with it.

      I was quite surprised that these guys would have made such statements. Over here in the States, people are very sensitive about such issues bothering on race, religion, sexual orientation and so on... It's a shame how primordial fear based on ignorance can be supported by anyone... What a hard lesson for anyone

      Linda it's about time you towed their line by not allowing your blog to be a platform for tribal rows and insults. You can be the one to spearhead #NoTribalHateAllowedHere campaign and do your part in healing this nation. I see no difference in white ppl being racist to black and us Nigerians hating each other because of our tribal differences. Please Linda do not ignore, I'm tired of seeing it and yes I used to do it too but after thinking about wat this child and mom must be feeling, I'm promising now not to continue so what do you say Linda? Please do not ignore this message, post and spread the good news. We r better and stronger as one Nigeria and weaker as a divided nation. One love Nigeria

    West is just a funny place to be in... Spent about 2.5 years there doing my masters, they have made me sensitive to words like monkey, black and Africa. Whenever I hear someone use those words in our conversation even here in Nigeria I have to scrutinized it to be sure there's no underline meaning sometimes I forget I am in Nigeria and react when I read or watch stuffs like that on TV or online. I just want to wash this off my blood soon and I pray I am able to do so for my own sanity. I can't even enjoy certain novels anymore when I see some stuffs that I think is racist. I am sorta hyper sensitive to things I wasn't aware of before I left Nigeria.

    Be free, yes. But be responsible. That is the challenge of social media where people can say all sorts. Many are "nice" in their person than the comments they make on social media platforms because of the fear of repercussions. So, they bridle themselves. But online, it's "full free" mode coupled with some irresponsibility.

    Very good corporate position. He is free and welcome to invest in any decent part of Africa. Meanwhile, Nigerians need to realize that a number of us are very racist. It is rude to call someone Oyibo or refer to him as White Man. The more civilized and cultured terms to use are EXPATRIATE or EXPAT. But note that overseas the Indians and Lebanese that we call Oyibo are actually regarded as Black people, just like Barack Obama. People like Ben Murray Bruce are equally seen as black.
