A Massachusetts police officer is facing disciplinary action for writing "Hahahaha love this" on Facebook in response to a story about a car striking and killing a counter-protester at a white supremacist rally in Virginia.

Springfield Officer Conrad Lariviere later apologized, saying in a Facebook conversation with Masslive.com that he's a "good man who made a stupid comment."

1. He's not a good man who made a stupid comment.

He's an asshole who made a despicable comment.

[question everything]

9. Right, and who has no place to be a part of any law enforcement agency

I can see him reacting in a similar way when an unarmed man is shot by a police officer someplace.

18. If you do not think it, you do not say it or write it.

He meant it.

2. a stupid man who made a vicious comment

That kind of person doesn't belong on any police force.

That was his first response to the death of someone's child. And most of us on this board would be the first to extend sympathy and prayers to a murdered police officer.

So I hope this guy loses his job.

3. His life goal should be to not be stupid.

4. But, but, but the girl who died was White

Do us all a favor and eat your fucking gun, asshole!

5. and

prob a trump supporter too

[chillfactor]

6. no "good man" makes such a stupid, unfeeling comment...

someone's child died.....does this damn idiot have any children of his own? If so, He apparently doesn't love them.

11. you don't need to have children to feel bad about death

7. Imagine if someone made a comment like this about the police helicopter crash n/t

8. the alt right and white supremicists

have infiltrated our police departments at an alarming rate.

[hibbing]

10. I apologize to those I offended n/t

[Bengus81]

12. Proven racist by his statements and he's a cop??

This man should be FIRED immediately.

13. Not the only one!

The Courier-Journal reported that Rinehardt posted a meme over the weekend depicting the damaged vehicle. It apparently read: “When you were born a Challenger but identify as a Ram.”

In another Facebook post jokingly advertising the sale of the vehicle, the Kentucky police officer reportedly commented, “Minor front end damage. Nothing serious,” according to the newspaper. However, authorities at either police department have not confirmed the details about the posts.

14. High five-ing from afar because he couldn't get time off

to go to Charlottesville. Disgusting POS.

[maxrandb]

15. I'm sure the "good" cops

are soon going to denounce this "waste of skin" and demand he be fired.

[EarthFirst]

19. Yep. They're lining up around the block in fact!

Oh wait; nope.

[Phoenix61]

16. No, he's not a good man

He's a racist who made a racist comment on a public forum and was called out for it. He is a liability to the Springfield Police Dept and nothing he says can change that. The only disciplinary action needed is termination of his employment for cause.

17. something very wrong with people who "love" to see violence and drag their job on to social media.

same as Mr. Trump, "power corrupts" .
