Fox News will hire them soon enough
'Comply with the cops' uh, he did, he had no choice but to comply, he was cuffed and pinned down by 3 people, one of them cutting off oxygen/blood to his brain... It's about time idiots got fired for their actions
What a jerk!!!
So disgusting.

Stupid democrats

littlemeanj9 Suspended. You mean vacation? Fire the cop.
IAmSophiaNelson Do these dirt bags have the guts to identify themselves? Probably not, chicken shit losers.
IAmSophiaNelson Dude kneeling is pond scum as Trump would say.
That is indecent. They could have done better then that.
I mean he’s right
IAmSophiaNelson New Jersey's finest 'apples'.
I’m not so surprised at men being idiots. The Good Ole Boys still exist but women are becoming just as bad.
How insensitive can people get?
ChristineFFFFF I was hoping for an overnight delivery of this news but that never happened. I’m glad it finally arrived without getting lost.

Again, free speech only applies to the left.
This makes me so happy.
Thought police. Believe as we do or lose your job.
Of course they are Trump supporters
Now that's putting your money where your mouth is!
Glad to hear he’s nothing but a POS.
KlatuBaradaNiko Great news...The correction officer should be fired too.. his job puts him in position to really hurt POC!
Get em outta here!
No respect
Failed State of America
IAmSophiaNelson Absolutely disgusting. And of course they’re proudly displaying a Trump flag!
With a nice big trump sign in the back ...
SwiftAndImmediateConsequences
Should be fired
Oh thank your for posting this. I was wondering what they were going to say after the tweet was made. FedEx sounded like they weren’t going to do anything.
I saw one piece where the reporter said they were unsure why the guy was kneeling on the guy who was flat on the ground. Geesh
When you think you are smarter then you actually are!!
This is disgusting and shameful!!!!!!
A drug addict who robs people should he made fun of 🤷♂️
Love to know how many complaints were filed against the brother that’s a correction officer?
Hopefully each future prospective employer will see this and throw his application in the trash. Probably has a family that depends on him. They’d be better off leaving him so that they can live a productive life. There are plenty of bridges under which he can sleep.
These are gonna be the same guys bitching that NASCAR banned the flags of the losing team in the Civil War
Some of these ppl are just plain loons!
That was just their way of dealing with the pain.
He has every right to do it.
