NEW ORLEANS (AP) — A white Louisiana school bus driver who made a racist remark to a Black student about the murder of George Floyd is out of a job after the child's mother complained to school officials.

WWL-TV reported that 11-year-old Rashad Gabriel had a face mask below his nose and told a driver he was out of breath after running to catch a bus to Trist Middle School in St. Bernard Parish, located in metro New Orleans, on April 9.

“Since George Floyd, that’s what you all say, but I don’t see a knee on your neck,” the driver replied, according to the child's mother, Rose Gabriel. Other children heard the statement, which also was captured on a video surveillance system on the vehicle.

The mother reported it, and School Superintendent Doris Voitier said the driver no longer works for the system.

1. Why would they give the name of the child and his mother, but not the driver? nt

2. Moron Loses Gig!

Simpler headline. Equally accurate, as well.

3. "Since George Floyd, that's what you all say"

wow... so much to unpack in those 8 words

4. Totally stupid thing to say, starting with "that's what you all say". There's a racist right there.
