So, it was all about his politics? No way could it have anything to do with, "snapping", under the pressure?

His politics? You mean his racism?

How about you show me ANYTHING in the story that provides any information about his mental state due to the pressure of the job. ANYTHING.

I know where you are going with this and the two situations along with the information provided to the public are entirely different. The only problem with your strategy is that I'm much better at this game than you are, apsdt.

Says who? You? Who are you to summarily dismiss it? It may well be your opinion, but so what? You think you can just dismiss out of hand, and not even bother to answer a relevant question I asked you. Again, if you think it is irrelevant, then don't respond, but you must have thought it relevant because you did respond, now you don't want to answer whether or not a black person can be racist.....Ah well, very weak my friend.

Really? I don't believe you. That or you work in an office full of retards and your company couldn't have been that big or successful...since it had an office full of idiots who didn't know how to use email properly. Who did their pre-employment screening anyway?

I am glad you are secure in your computer knowledge, and I do not doubt you are better at it then I, I had someone do most of it, for me.;)

Whoaaaa...you had someone do your computer work for you? Man you must have been a real big wig! When was this, back in the early 80's? Well given this new information I'd say you're pretty much say your opinion on the whole "oh it's so easy to do this" is worthless. Since you know, you didn't really work with computers since you were such a bigshot at your sales company full of primates who didn't know how to send email properly. :)

As for calling me a liar, spoken like a retired cop, we are going to get along brilliantly.:2wave:

No, I called you a liar "like a guy who is pretty convinced you're lying." Retired cop has nothing to do with it. You're just a poor liar, that's all.

And I doubt we are going to get along at all.

This from the guy who was an officer for....what was that, 15 years?

What happened there ace, why not get the full retirement?

As far as what you believe, or do not believe, I will just have to struggle on, hurt, but still hopeful that one day a cop who couldn't even cut it for 20 years....doesn't like me.;)

Your question is nothing more than bait given the nature of your commentary in this thread. Bait. Of course black people can be racists, anyone of any skin color or tone can be racist. There you go, j-mac. Do you think you're actually making some kind of case against me with that question? If so you'd better scamper along and find somewhere in my history that I've ever held the position that only whites can be racist. You wouldn't want to come across as Don Quixote here now would you? :rofl

I'll be waiting for you get relevant.

Yes, right about that long. Because 15 years isn't really that long you know.

I actually have two retirement plans for which I was fully vested in. I went into the consulting business and now make six figures a year as opposed the $40K I was making on the job. I work directly with agencies all over the U.S. as well as with members of Congress to secure funding for projects that modernize law enforcement operations. Think paradigm shift. Net centric, intelligence led policing on a regional and state wide scale.

What do you again? Oh yeah, the computer illiterate sales thing. Gotcha.

Yeah I guess you will. I've been published in numerous public safety publications and regularly speak at conferences across the country on the subject. I'm kind of big deal to some people.

In a roundabout way, this post is about that dark, evil racist hiding inside of us all. :( We're just projecting it onto the thread because our collective fathers didn't hug us as children.

It really should be patently obvious to any half way intelligent person that if a group of people within a population are to be advantaged in some way, that the remainder of that population are going to be disadvantaged.

I stand 100% with his original comment.

Yeah, the white people have been downtrodden too long! :rofl :rofl

No I wouldn't. I did the job for nearly fifteen years and I never got so worked up that I felt compelled to send a blatantly racist email to everyone on my contacts list. This guy has deep rooted personal issues that don't come from the stresses of the job itself.

Then again I'm not racist and I had the make up to do the job and deal with the stresses associated with it. Maybe I'm an anomaly in that I didn't let the people I was dealing with dictate whether or not I would decide to hate on an entire race. Who know?

And the dramatic angle...please don't attempt to over exaggerate the realities of police work when dealing with someone who did it for a decade and a half. You don't "look death in the eye everyday." It's not quite like that, even in the most crime infested areas. Police work is 90% "routine" boredom, 8% heart pumping action, 2% "Oh **** I can't believe that just happened."

Wouldn't the time spent eating donuts fall under the 'heart pumpimg action'?....:confused:
I would think the percentage would be higher.......;)
I'm just sayin'.......:)

Bull****. I use Microsoft Outlook Exchange with Business Contact Manager. I know exactly how it works. Try again. And obviously I'm a bit more capable than you are with a computer. In fact given your assertion here I'd say you're pretty much lying through your teeth.
Click to expand...

Horsecrap.

Contacts and groups are routinely intermingled in a standard MS Exchange contact list. How you personally have your contact list set up is irrelevant.

It is not uncommon for people to be in a hurry and accidentally click on the wrong contact. I saw it happen at one of my companies just last week where an attorney clicked on the contact above the one he really wanted to send to. This resulted in sending confidential internal case documents to the opposing council. It happens. Are you going to sit there and tell me that this attorney was secretly sympathetic to the opposing lawyers and that's why he sent that email message?

You cannot ascribe motive or beliefs to a person based on a mistakenly sent e-mail message. I have forwarded e-mail to friends based on both agreement and on strong disagreement. I have printed out some of the comments here that I strongly disagree with so as to ridicule those statements to others. Because I printed out a statement by Lerxst suddenly means I agree with his statements? Again, horse crap!

Can you show me anything that says that he was the creator of the message and not just reading something and passing it along? (or maybe even NOT reading it and passing it along?)

Besides, I see nothing racist about this email.

Even if he didn't read it (A big IF), ignorance is not going to cut it in passing it along.

What's next, saying "I didn't know that was a child pornography site officer"?

He's going to claim PTSD, already supported by the Libbo media and won't see the muzzles of 6 rifles, the way he should.

"Free" is a relative term is it not? I mean, spending time in a psychiatric facility is a long way from the death penalty right?

Well, I remember back in like 1999 whitehouse.com was one of the biggest surprise porn sites.

I honestly DIDN'T know it was a porn site.

And what would those crackers know about that?

I don't get it, its like because the guy passes along an email which is pretty much a bunch of white guys tired of getting shat on while every other race gets to be 'special' and get 'special privledges' then suddenly they must be racist.

You don't like blacks and hispanics getting special treatment over you? YOU SIR ARE RACIST!

So what I have learned from this is that the general DP population thinks its okay for minorities to get special treatment based off of the notion that some time 50-100 years ago they were treated poor, and the best way to fix the situation is to treat them better than everyone else, and then somehow make those who aren't getting special treatment out to be evil racists if they don't agree.

Thanks for confirming this blubbering idiocy.


I believe it was ignorant of him to be involved in passing around the chain email, I never pass long chain email in my personal email, and I don't even get them at work, however, that was ignorant of him to do it, especially on such a 'sensitive' (***** political correctness) subject (where at any moment people will start jumping in circles screaming racism at the top of their lungs).

Other than that, I don't believe the email makes him a racist.

A. The email isn't racist anyways, its just a bitch fest of white people tired of not being allowed to be proud of being who they are because they are not a minority
B. Just possession such an email or passing it along because it says pass it along doesn't make one a racist anyways.
