An emergency medical technician who was placed on unpaid leave after racist comments surfaced of him comparing black patients to gorillas and claiming to take"immense satisfaction" as he"terrorized" an African-American boy with a needle has been cleared of wrongdoing by the Virginia Department of Health.
The Virginia health department's investigation focused on whether"any alleged violations of Virginia's EMS regulations have occurred," the agency said in a statement. Those regulations stipulate that"EMS personnel may not discriminate ... based on race, gender, religion, age, national origin, medical condition or any other reason.
Some people can separate their personal and professional lives.
He didn’t do anything wrong. Impeccable record serving a community with a dire shortage of emt’s.
He's innocent by your own reporting but you'll plaster his face nevertheless. Super ethical.
Welcome to Virginia people of color don’t be caught here after sun down.
BETTER fuckin give him back pay and pay him a penalty for this shittery
CNN is a viciously hate-filled, racist organization. CNN spreads anti-white propaganda daily. CNN needs to be called out on it's hatred.
He did nothing wrong
Look at his record. What is his record? How many has he saved?
Mainstream media dishes out more racism than anyone else in the country.
Good deal. Happy for Alex! Keep up the great work on and off the bandaid bus muh guy 👍🏻
Take the L* Journos ! *Learn to code
Lol
I hear worse racism from Charlemagne Tha God on his morning radio show. No one said he can't work as an EMT.
Gov Ralph is a racist! I can see how he would let other racists get a pass
And for some reason this is set to the backdrop of a ruby Tuesday restaurant
Stay healthy Virginians
He did nothing wrong
Nice try CNN.
''I hate white people more than anyone, so how can i be a racist?' the man said in a facebook post defending himself''.
Holy shit mcnabbster made it to CNN. The utmost gold standard of integrity in journalism
BeastOfWood When will POC be held accountable for hate?
That pesky longtime protection for extremists. Tell us CNN, who is still shielded?
It appears the Virginia Department of Health is not woke.
Alex McNabb did nothing wrong
MatthewParrott It is possible to say things on your own time and still be a professional.
MatthewParrott Good for McNabb!
westland_will 'Racist'? No one is more racist than you, prolific in spreading misinformation and hate. How many anti-white articles you've published and continue to publish? How many of your 'journalists' harass whites daily? Won't wait for an answer, after all, there are only 280 characters.
Yeah.. that would be a hard argument in Virginia..
MatthewParrott Thanks for the white pill, fam! Alex has my utmost respect. He held his ground, doesn't hide behind an avatar, uses his real name and he procreated. The real deal.
Way to go Alex
westland_will Good. His county is already lacking equipment, under manned and under funded and you want to fire one of the only emt first responders they have because of naught jokes made off the clock. Do you want rual Americans to die?
Never forget: The lying media would prefer to let a black person die than to allow a so called “racist” to save that black person’s life.
The wofst picture they could find includes an ad for his radio show, hilarious
IS HE RELATED TO THE GOVERNOR?
So, this man has unpopular opinions, but they in no way impact his ability to do his job? Sounds like you guys should contract with Mr. McNabb for some much needed training for your employees. TheMostHatedNameInNews fakenews FakeNewsMedia
westland_will I hear he's great at his job. Which is all that counts. We have racists who are against whites in govt. Good for the goose, good for the gander.
Comedians like Sarah Silverman joke about eating babies, Kathy Griffith pretends to chop off Trumps head, ect. You people acting all shocked and horrified need to pump the brakes. It’s a comedy show, take a listen, you might laugh when heard in context.
Good
You should do a racial breakdown of medical malpractice in america and really show the public how these white supremacists are practicing guerilla warfare on POC. This has to stop!!!
westland_will Why should jokes done outside of work affect whether you are able to make a living or not?
The anti-racist religion has become so extreme that people exercising their first amendment right to free speech is considered a controversy.
Lol, hold this L
Lot of people seem to have a problem with the concept of free speech. Unfortunately for them its one of the founding concepts of this country.
He did nothing wrong in his job, but freedom of speech, unfortunately, allows people to say hateful things.
All I can say is “ what goes around comes back around”. Eventually he will receive everything that he has dished out thru the years.
Oh, Virginia, state that I once called home and “hearted”, what has become of you?
I dont think free speech covers 'terrorizing'a child. Regardless of whether he did or didnt act unprofessionally in his medical care, the words of his 'persona' should be enough justification for termination.
Virginia always doing great things these days huh smh
What is the point of CNN, propaganda outlet, running this story ? Why is the fate of a local EMT elevated to national news ?
He looks like he's about to go order steak with some ketchup.
OH, MY WORD DINDUS, THE WORLD IS COMING TO AN END!
Meanwhile, in ither not reported news: Virginia still has a racist governor and Ag as well as a sexual predator in Lt Governor
The man was cleared. Get over it people.
He should be beaten and killed publicly because he has thoughts not approved by the masses. Only after he is compleatly destroyed will others see the love of all mankind. It is obvious oppressing others will make them love.
Virginia is trying to out-Florida Florida
A real podcast douchebag.
Well if the Governor and his wife can get away with it,why not him?I will never spend another penny there and I I will spread it like wildfire about how Virginia is,Does Trump or any Family Members Have Property there?Good place for them!
...and then he declared his candidacy for governor.
No way in hell I’d let him help me. He needs to go work in the mountains of West Virginia, they’ll happily welcome him with open arms.
What else would we expect from Virginia
So he needs to get all that missed pay returned to him
This shouldn't surprise ANYONE. It is Virginia after all. 🤷🏻♀️
Welcome to Trump-America. Nazis in the USCG, military, EMT’s. Nazis in government. Remember WWII? Americans fought nazis then. A lot has changed since the 20th century. A lot has been lost.
GovernorVA cleared him, naturally. At least now we know who was with him in the KKK hood.
Shut up cnn. So much racism from so many quarters that you don’t report. You’re crooks and you know it
Frustrating that after 40 years of civil rights and court cases we still have people urging entities to fire people based on protected satirical speech. Scary that the fake news can literally dumb down society to such an extent that this seems normal. How is this even a story?
In other news: WTF is going on in Virginia?
He sounds like a sicko
they should pay him o,t,pay plus intr.
It’s Virginia, what else do U expect
We have his name?
ZeroDiscriminationDay March 1, 2019
In the findings they stated, 'well did you see what our Gov did and he gets to keep his job.'
You understand the first amendment allows people to say stupid things right?
MarkMeadows?
... sounds about white... (!)
False accusations?
Yet another FAKE Hate Crime. Yawnzzz...
Bravo
