KANSAS CITY, Mo. - A FedEx driver is no longer working for the company after a Ring camera captured him using a racial slur during a delivery to a real estate office.

The incident happened on July 15 at Murrell Homes Real Estate Group in Kansas City. The driver arrived with a package, and when no one came to the door immediately, he used a racial slur. His comment was recorded on the office’s Ring camera.

Shawnna Murrell, owner and managing broker of Murrell Homes Real Estate Group, said she heard the comment in real time.

“I heard what he said and I just kinda stopped. I was like, ‘Wait a minute. Did I just hear what he said?’ So I put the phone up to my ear, and I was like, ‘Wow,’” Murrell said.

Murrell started her real estate group five years ago. The company has nearly 40 Black and minority agents who help Kansas City families buy homes. She said she has no doubt the slur was directed at her business.

“Especially if you are out here performing in a negative way with your company, and with a company shirt on. That’s a reflection of the company. As a company owner, as a business owner, I stand by that,” Murrell said.

The driver has not been charged with a crime, and FedEx has not released his name.

Murrell said she contacted FedEx and asked for accountability.

In a statement FedEx said, “The behavior depicted in the video is unacceptable and inconsistent with our company values. We have taken this matter seriously and can confirm this individual is no longer providing service on behalf of FedEx.”

Murrell said the incident will not change how she operates.

“I’m out here spreading love. I’m out here being what I can be, the best that I can be for my community. I’m not gonna let one person change that,” she said.

Package companies are trying to layoff their drivers to replace with new ones at lower salaries. There was a story posted about buy-outs here

The next White homeland, founded by White men (who else?), will be very careful about who we let in, and very careful about limiting the power of women. White women that don't like it are free to take their chances with the brownoids.

I never read nigg ra being charged with racist crimes. It's always a hate crime against whites only.
The nigg ras are the biggest racists in the country. It's because they are usually less educated and less intelligent.

Look in the mirror, "Shawnna". He knows what you are.
You're out there spreading bush negro culture, into human neighborhoods...

"I’m out here spreading love. I’m out here being what I can be, the best that I can be for my community. I’m not gonna let one person change that,” Yeah sure you are by getting a man fired, that may have a family to care for, for using the SAME word that the black community throws around continuously. If that had been a black FedEx employee that video would have never seen the light of day.

The word is common slang nowadays. It's like saying "dude", "man" , etc. He didn't say it in order to offend anybody. The business owner should have read the situation. Instead, now because of reporting him, he's lost his source of income.

Well, that's a shame. When I was back in Baltimore I was test driving a customer's vehicle after repairs and some tribble cut me off. They had a dash camera that would record whenever the key was on, so needless to say, I had to delete the last file on the camera!
