Aaron McNamara is a young auxiliary officer at the Fairview Park police department [Update: "was" an auxiliary officer with Fairview police; he resigned less than an hour after this story was posted], climbing up the law enforcement ladder as he finishes his college degree this semester with dreams of becoming a federal agent, he says. On social media, he says he's gone through training with the Ohio State Highway Patrol, and this June he tweeted he was "Officially sworn in with the Fairview Park Police Department. Wow, this feels good. #DreamChasing."
He also has many thoughts about African Americans.
Over the past two years, McNamara has been commenting on YouTube videos mostly about black people and law enforcement regularly dropping racial and gay slurs, unambiguously expressing hatred towards minorities and anyone who dare not comply with what police say. He calls black people in videos "jungle monkeys," "spooks," and worse. He commented on a video of a young black child swearing, saying "This is how cop killers are raised my friends." He's also a fan of when police officers shoot and rough up non-compliant civilians. The comments appeared on his Youtube and Google+ accounts that were deleted yesterday (we'll explain in a bit).

They'll get jobs and kill people, solely because they want to.

This person needs to be in a different profession. Probably one that doesn't involve dealing with the public. Perhaps he would be happier with very tiny widgets.

(22,165 posts)Glad he has broadcast his bigotry .... I would think this would be helpful for defendants in any case he was to be involved with.
Its the bigots that hide their bigotry that are even scarier.
I am sure this exposure is not going to help his career (at least I hope not)

(27,137 posts)These people are damaged humans (probably dropped a lot as infants). No doubt if their DNA were screened they'd find a plethora of anomalies in those areas that control AUTHORITARIAN tendencies. Psychopaths, the lot of them.
- Remember, psychopaths can appear normal. So avoid contact with these people at all costs, as they can be fatal.

(45,984 posts)Answer: one hour after the story was posted. I see the Fairview Park PD has an active and effective MERT team.
Is this how Darren Wilsons are made? At least Mr. McNamara won't be a killer cop.
