Government employee runs website advocating killing members of a specified race; still working for gummint

If you're conservative you'll probably find the following story outrageous.  If you're on the other side of the political spectrum you probably won't see anything wrong.

That den of competence
called the "Department of Homeland Security" owns a sub-agency, the laughably-misnamed Dept. of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.  (Misnamed because your presnit officially ordered ICE to stop enforcing U.S. immigration laws, by ceasing to deport illegal immigrant kids.)
In theory ICE has an employee policy that prohibits "any type of hateful rhetoric or advocacy of violence of any kind against anyone."  For those on the left who parse words, here's the quote from ICE's Deputy Press Secretary Gillian Christensen:
ICE does not condone any type of hateful rhetoric or advocacy of violence of any kind against anyone.  Every ICE employee is held to the highest standard of professional and ethical conduct. Accusations of misconduct are investigated thoroughly and if substantiated, appropriate action is taken.
If this statement is true, then if an ICE employee was found to be hosting a website calling for killing Americans of a specific race, and bashing gays, you'd think the guy would be fired forthwith.

Yeah, you'd think that all right.

If the guy was white, you'd be right.  On the other hand....

There's an ICE employee by name of Ayo Kimathi.  Guy runs a website, on which we find the following: "Warfare is eminent [sic], and in order for Black people to survive the 21st century, we are going to have to kill a lot of whites."

ICE requires all its employees to get the department's permission if they want to run a website.  Kimathi reportedly got around this by using only the initials of his site ("WOH") when asking for department permission.

Ask yourself:  If Kimathi were white, with the same website, how long would it be before his government employer fired him?  A day?  Two at most?  Of course.

At last report Kimathi was still working in his normal position.

Are you surprised?  Of course not.  It's how the government of Barack H. Obama rolls.

Oh, for you leftoid morons who are convinced all this shit comes from Fox News or similar:  Ya got me.  This is from a flaky site for sure:  The Atlantic.  [And for you leftists in flyover country, the Atlantic is a leftist rag.)

Update:  Following the uproar caused by the article on the leftist "Atlantic," the government has...fired the guy?  Uh, no. 

Okay, reprimanded him?  Uh, no.  Instead they put the guy on "paid leave." 

Paid leave?  Wow, that's just brutal.
 
I'd love to have a white employee start a website advocating killing...let's just say "members of some other race," and see what the gubmint does to him.  I'm betting it wouldn't just be paid leave.
