    I hesitate to post this in Hangout, but I cannot believe that there would be much disagreement that this was a serious mistake.

    20-year vet and uses the n word, as in 'f****** n******' because his fellow officers got to take dinner break first. I think suspension is inadequate.

    Do you want MORE or LESS? I just want to clear that up.

    Certainly it is unacceptable... but... what happens when it's a black cop and he says this...? Does the guy from "The Advancement of Colored People" thingie come running and says it is unacceptable? :confused:

    I would think that his use of inadequate would suggest that the punishment was not severe enough

    I said suspension is inadequate... meaning a much more serious response is required.

    And it's just plain wrong; you don't need to argue well 'what if' this and 'what if ' that.

    What is wrong with the po-po these days? Seems like one of their member is always on the hot seat every other week.

    A racist person with the law behind him (and a gun) is a great opportunity for a joke.

    you should also take into account that he's been in the service for 20 years without a dirt ( assuming ).

    if this is a first offense, 4 days is ok.

    I always find it humorous that the biggest civil rights group in America has the word "colored" in it's name. There's also the United NEGRO College Fund. The last time I heard the word "negro" was when I watched Pulp Fiction...

    no, that sounds like apd. seriously, they are the most unprofessional, rude, roided up bunch of cops you will ever encounter.

    i guess as long as they arent shooting unarmed black and hispanic kids in the back we should be happy.
