I honestly don't even know if it was intentional--- sometimes when people are talking just to talk they say incredibly idiotic things--- but the comment makes no sense as a comment about guerilla warfare.
Yeah, I get that.
But I believe being insensitive and tone deaf can also reveal racial attitudes. You don't have to mean to insult someone to demonstrate those beliefs.
I'm not saying this guy should lose his job, especially if he has no history of racist comments.
Still... it's important to call it as it is, and not minimize the issue. Just because Trump and his minions have declared a post-pc society doesn't mean we have to abdicate our responsibility in confronting ignorance.
