Racist, tasteless or good to go?
This is a spin off of the language thread. It just happens to be very well timed for my current situation. I am in the Army and my 1SG a.k.a First Sergeant(head senior enlisted boss) is the topic of this next situation. 1SG is black and I am white.
1SG walks into room after all courtesies had been rendered. I am standing around with other soldiers. Admittedly, I'm standing like joe-cool with my hands on my sides staring off into space. 1SG walks up to me. 1SG "You got pistols in your pocket?" ME- I go to parade rest (military position with hands behind my back) ME- "No 1SG" 1SG "You look like a teapot." ME- "I'm sorry 1SG am I not allowed to stand like that?" 1SG "You can stand however you want." 1SG walks away and I stupidly don't take the hint and go back to standing that way and 1SG walks back in. 1SG "Don't stand like that." ME- "Yes 1SG" 1SG "You know who stands like that?" ME- "Who 1SG" 1SG "A slave owner stands like that when he's watching his slaves in the field working. Have you ever seen a slave owner." ME- "No 1SG" 1SG "Well thats how they stand." I didn't take it too much to heart at that time(happened 2 months ago). But many circumstances that have happened after that have lead me to believe that he has a huge problem with me. My direct supervisor is aware of the situation and I think some stuff is brewing about this with my unit and am not really sure what to be expecting now. What do you think about the exchange? |

My big thing is, what if it was an older white guy, telling a young black man to stop standing like a slave. Would this have been a jaw dropping event?

I'm too enthralled by your avatar to have an opinion.

I think you should have him flogged for getting all uppity.

You should've told him that your family owns slaves, and you were taught that it's a stance of power to keep them from revolting.

Its tasteless but its in the military so its probably good to go. But if a black guy can say something like that so should anyone. The rules should apply to everyone.
