(8,652 posts)How often do you think the N-Word is used by bigots in describing our President?
I have said in another response that, if anything, I was a bit too lenient.
Tossing patrons at a bar in a race track for vulgar, bigoted, insensitive remarks isn't as easy as it may appear in my description. If that same remark was made in front of the security officers, the situation would have been a lot easier.
The two men were not "scary", they were men with authority on the premises, and the fact that they were black, with authority, added to the scene.
The three men in question weren't frightened. No one was going to assault them or shoot them. they were embarrassed in that they had to eat their words.
I will admit to a sense of ego in that, rather than the final scene being me slithering away in a debate about the President, it became a scene of three bigots who used inappropriate language in referring to President Obama having to be humiliated in front of strangers.
I made my point without the fuss of an incident report. I think I handled it well.
