FDNY Commissioner Salvatore Cassano's son, Joseph Cassano, was climbing the ladder to become a firefighter. In December, the 23-year-old became an EMT, and Emergency Medical Services employees have an advantage when it comes to getting hired by the FDNY. However, Cassano's ascension might be halted by his diarrhea of the mouth.
The New York Post gathered a sample batch of some of Cassano's most recent and offensive tweets:
In November, Cassano tweeted a photo of a Hasidic Jew near a kids' basketball court, writing: “This no good Hebrewwww crepin on the kidssssss.”
What an asshole, right? But at least he wants to save lives, right? Wrong. He once wrote on Twitter "I hate ems...Everybody wanna be a firefighter, but don’t nobody wanna be a damn EMT." This morning, he released a statement, apologizing for being honest: "I regret posting some comments that were offensive, especially since I enjoy my job and treat every patient with great care and respect."
Whatever you say, Joey. Whatever you say.
