"The Florida assistant state attorney was suspended on Friday for a social media post describing Orlando, Florida, as "a melting pot of 3rd world miscreants and ghetto thugs" in the wake of the deadly mass shooting in Orlando, according to Orlando television station WESH.
Kenneth Lewis was suspended for violating the State Attorney's Office social media policy, Angela Starke, a spokeswoman for the office, told WESH.
"Downtown Orlando has no bottom. The entire city should be leveled. It is void of a single redeeming quality. It is a melting pot of 3rd world miscreants and ghetto thugs. It is void of culture," Lewis wrote on Facebook, according to a screengrab obtained by WESH. "If you live down there you do it at your own risk and at your own peril. If you go down there after dark there is seriously something wrong with you.””*
