Anti-mask Atlanta nurse out of a job after TikTok supercut exposes his racist and homophobic rants
June 18, 2021
A nurse who formerly worked at Baptist Health in Montgomery, Alabama has been fired after a critic of his compiled a supercut of his racist and homophobic TikTok videos where he also questioned whether masks slowed the transmission of COVID-19.
According to AL.com, Nathan Coy Thompson, who posted videos as @conservativecoy1776, on TikTok is no longer employed by Baptist Health and his account shut down after a woman who goes by @rxOrcist collected a smattering of his ugly comments that questioned COVID-19 protocols, made ugly comments about using the n-word and made fun of people who are financially struggling.
In her prelude to the clips of Thompson, @rxOrcist -- who also goes by Savannah -- explained, "I warned you that we were going to hold you accountable," Savannah said, "You see, while you've gotten super comfortable spreading COVID disinformation, racism, homophobia, transphobia, Islamophobia, literally all the phobias you've hit in your videos, you forgot the part where freedom of speech does not mean freedom from consequences."
The report goes on to note that a spokesperson for Baptist Health states Thompson -- who was wearing scrubs and his badge in some of the videos -- is no longer employed by them and has been gone since April.
AL.com, also noted that, "At the time of writing, Thompson's name and license number could not be found in the Alabama Board of Nursing's license database. All of his social media accounts appear to have been taken down."

The U.S. Dept. of Justice has released another video of insurrectionist activity at the U.S. Capitol on January 6. This one appears to show a man in a camouflage jacket shoving and then punching a federal officer in the face, hitting his face-shield.
"Prosecutors say this is NJ gym owner Scott Fairlamb (in the camo jacket) shoving a cop (at 0:28), and then punching him in the face (at 0:31). Fairlamb pleaded not guilty," CNN's Marshall Cohen reports (tweet and video below.)
There is a DOJ Criminal Complaint for Fairlamb filed January 21 that lists offenses including "Certain Acts During Civil Disorder," "Assaulting a Federal Officer," "Carrying a Dangerous Weapon," and "Violent Entry and Disorderly Conduct on Capitol Grounds."
As the video shows, a handful of D.C. Metropolitan Police officers waded into a veritable sea of agitated Trump supporters.
The man, allegedly Fairlamb, seems to pick a fight with one of the cops, then another, leading very quickly to him grabbing an officer, shoving him, then punching him "in the head," as the Complaint asserts.
The complaint also says there is video of him saying, "What Patriots do? We fuckin' disarm them and then we storm fuckin' the Capitol."
The Washington Post has a "detention decision" online that says "he must be detained," meaning kept in jail before trial.
Watch:

WATCH: Trump fanatics yell 'Traitor!' at Mike Pence during Faith and Freedom conference
June 18, 2021
Former Vice President Mike Pence drew angry shouts from some pro-Trump fanatics at the Faith and Freedom Coalition conference on Friday.
Although most attendees at the conference gave Pence a warm welcome, some Trump fans in the audience began yelling at him that he was a "traitor" as he spoke.
According to Tampa Bay Times political editor Steve Contorno, several people who yelled at Pence were escorted out of the conference in the middle of his speech.
Former President Donald Trump has repeatedly blamed Pence for not overturning the results of the 2020 presidential election during the congressional certification process, even though Pence had no constitutional authority to do so.
During the riots at the United States Capitol building on January 6th, several Trump supporters chanted, "Hang Mike Pence!" to show their displeasure with the one-time Trump loyalist.
Watch the video below.
