A Louisiana man entrusted to protect the people in his community has resigned from his position after sharing a disgusting, threatening meme on Facebook.
Wayne Welsh, an assistant chief at the Estherwood Police Department, shared a post Sunday depicting a woman holding a young girl’s head under water in a bathtub, with the caption, “When your daughters [sic] first crush is a little ? boy.”
Social media users grabbed a screenshot of the officer’s post and it quickly went viral.
Welsh’s community was outraged, and though local media didn’t immediately release his identity, folks on the internet were happy to oblige:
Estherwood’s police chief, Ernest Villejoin, confirmed to HuffPost Wednesday that Welsh had resigned and said the “situation has been taken care of.” He told local media earlier this week that he was dumfounded when he saw the post.
“When I found out about it, I couldn’t believe I had to call him. I called him at work and asked him what the hell is going on,” Villejoin told local news outlet KADN. “He done it. He said it and he realized what he had done after he done it and he deleted it but it was too late.”
Welsh, whose Facebook page is now private, appeared to be surprised at the backlash before he apologized on Monday, according to KATC.
“It’s not against the law to share something on Facebook. It’s social media. Internet,” he posted, before backpedaling with an apology. “Well, I’m sorry for what happen. Yall have a blessed day.”
Estherwood City Hall immediately distanced itself from the situation, writing on Facebook Monday that it didn’t have control over employment at the police department.
Villejoin told HuffPost that he didn’t yet know who would take over Welsh’s position.

I love it. Keep posting racist ? on the internet so we can all see how you really feel.

So they let him resign to keep his pension and if he wants another job him being fired won't be on his record. So when or if he applies for a new job it will be like this ? never happened.
Basically dude just got off with no repercussions

Probably was talking about ? this ? that, and had a daughter that decided to what the fuss is about. And enjoying what she experienced.

The Assistant Chief of the Estherwood Police Department who is resigning over a racially charged Facebook post is speaking out.
Wayne Welsh has seen lots of backlash ever since he shared a meme to his Facebook page that shows a mother holding the back of her daughter’s head, pushing her face down into a bathtub with the words “When your daughter’s first crush is a little n-word boy.”
“I just don’t feel like I should have to resign on this because there is not a policy saying I can’t do this on Facebook.” said Welsh.
Welsh says he saw the post on his wall but didn’t think it was racist. So he decided to share it.
“To me, I’m not racist and I knew it wasn’t. It was picture that everybody shared and you can get on anybody and still see it. It’s still there, but I was wrong for sharing it for being a police officer.” said Welsh. -
Seen this on FB the other day and went to his page. MFer was basically mocking the fact that people took offense to it. Thing is, even w/o the racial part of it, how is joking about drowning your child acceptable?
-
he can mock and act like he doesnt get it all he wants
you're a police officer.....in the south....in a time where there's double the tension between your profession and people of color, and a lot of your procedures and actions towards that group of people are in question.....and you thought it was no big deal to post THAT of all things?
you aint special, you gotta have some restraint too.....i dont share certain ? that could be offensive to either part of my family or friends and thats just me being an adult....you're a public servant
stay your ? off fb or learn to go private and you dont have to worry about it....? make a fake page for you and your buddies to post that ? all day....its easy to be who u wanna be now....just dont be an idiot -
Yeah but u knew it was wrong still u lil ? ....
