"All lives splatter" meme shared on emergency management page

County officials in Washington state are facing criticism after an employee posted a meme — declaring “ALL LIVES SPLATTER” and depicting a car running over people — on a government Facebook page.

“Nobody cares about your protest,” read the text on an image posted Monday to the Facebook page for Chelan County Emergency Management, according to a image of the post taken by the Yakima Herald. “Keep your ass out of the road.”

The meme, which showed a cartoon of a car hitting people, had been shared from another Facebook group called “Libtards; ya gotta love ’em!” The person who posted it to the county Facebook page added a message: “I don’t wish harm on anyone … but protesters don’t belong in the road!”

It’s unclear exactly how long the post remained publicly visible before it was removed. On Monday afternoon, Chelan County Sheriff Brian Burnett released a statement apologizing for the “inappropriate” post. The apology noted that the meme had been shared to the emergency management page by a “non-commissioned employee” who had received it on a personal account first.

Apology not accepted. The fact that he meant to put it on his own page isn't comforting. Thats the kind of people you employ?? Thats the kind of person who is going to show up to my house if I call 911 for help?

 

 

I mean, it doesn't reflect the views of the Sherrif's Office, just the folks that work there

Yet some members of this forum will argue that we need to have sense of humor. 

Just wait for 'em.
