FDNY Commissioner's Son Tweets Hatred For Jews, Blacks, Obama, MLK, Overweight People

The son of FDNY Commissioner Salvatore Cassano has been put on a fast track to follow his father's footsteps into the department by becoming an EMT in December. Personnel with the Emergency Medical Services are already technically part of the FDNY, and they have a significant edge when it comes to getting hired by the department. But Joseph Cassano, 23, isn't exactly helping the FDNY's notoriously racist reputation. The Post collected a potent sample of some of his recent tweets: [UPDATE: He resigned!]

• In November, Cassano tweeted a photo of a Hasidic Jew near a kids' basketball court, writing: “This no good Hebrewwww crepin on the kidssssss.”
• "News flash to half of the island, ur white! Stop talking like ur a shwoog," Cassano, who resides in Staten Island with his parents, wrote in August. ("Shwoog," is a racist slur toward black people.)
• He celebrated Martin Luther King, Jr. day by tweeting, "MLK could go kick rocks for all I care, but thanks for the time and a half today.”
• In March he shared this gem: "Gotta love people with the iPhone 5 and brand new Jordan’s whip out their benefits card #f--kobama #ipaidforyourstuff.”
• Cassano doesn't take kindly to overweight people in need of help: "Got kicked in the shin by a drunk and had to carry a 275 pound guy down 5 flights of stairs... my job is the worst #yearandahalftogo.”
• He also wanted everyone on Twitter to know this: "I like jews about as much as hitler. #toofar? NOPE."

Cassano's offensive Twitter history came to light after the NY Post reported that he had joined the EMS as an "insider’s shortcut to becoming a firefighter."
Cassano, according to Twitter, hates working for EMS, writing, "I hate ems...Everybody wanna be a firefighter, but don’t nobody wanna be a damn EMT." This morning, he released this statement: "I regret posting some comments that were offensive, especially since I enjoy my job and treat every patient with great care and respect."

Still, we're guessing the patients that get the greatest care have something in common. In November Cassano tweeted, "I love boob jobs... I wish every girl in America were forced to get one once they turn 18." And his last tweet revealed, "I really don't worry if I make alot of money in my life, as soon as I can buy my wife new tits ill be a happy man."
