A corrections official in Tennessee who allegedly posted a slew of pro-white supremacist and generally racist comments on Facebook has resigned, reports the Los Angeles Times.
According to the Washington Post, among the posts David Barber reportedly made while serving as the director of the Shelby County Corrections Center was one reading, “The KKK is more American than the illegal president.” 
Accompanying the assertion was a photo of Obama next to one showing a man in full Ku Klux Klan dress.
Another of Barber’s Facebook posts reportedly read, “…TRUMP wins and obummer cannot start martial law, he will run to his new mansion in thaArab world to hide. Hopefully the Muslims will eliminate him and mooshelle as queers."
Though Barber expressed his thoughts on his personal Facebook page and did not likely violate existing work policies, county mayor Mark H. Luttrell, Jr. noted, “He should have known better. What he did was intolerable.”
