So this coworker of yours made this racist rant and you are the one that got sent to HR???
either the story didn't happen the way you described or you work at one backwards arse company.

What idiot accused his boss and a significant number of other people of being racist the first time he meets him?
Posted on 2/8/16 at 9:46 am to BowDownToLSU
Nope, the race card is getting old.

Prepared to be sent to a re-education facility, aka "sensitivity training."

Meh. I liked Doug Williams. I liked Warren Moon. I liked Donovan McNabb. I like Russell Wilson. I don't like Cam. I don't like Vick.
What does that make me? Racist because I don't give it away by "hating" all black QBs, just to keep everyone off balance, I guess.

Yeah, not keep your mouth shut at work about something that has the potential to get your arse in a sling.

You should double down and say that Beyonce should keep her big arse away from halftime shows.

blacks gonna black.
That's what you get for going over the top. He will run with it so he can get paid and go home to play XBOX.
I would have got him immediately in HR for insubordination.
You should have known blacks had this pegged as a B vs. W Super Bowl.

Or perhaps people under 40 have a better than average chance of being an emotional basket case.

Sounds like another fine Democrat...

He gets somewhat of a pass from me - he had a much tougher time being the first black starting QB in the league. I didn't pay attention to his comments supporting Cam the past few weeks.
But, as a player - heck, I tend to default in backing Louisiana players unless I have a good reason not to.

Coming from someone with a PhD in HR, yes, you are royally fricked. It just depends on your company.

You are white.
Cam Newton is black.
Hence, you are racist.

or you can have an intelligent discussion about how stupid it is to offend your subordinates as a supervisor in an office.
To get offended by something like the OP did shows lack of intelligence.
If you can't have office comradery like this among co-workers, then perhaps his subordinate isn't the right fit for that job.
Also you sound like a real vagina. He made a joke about a football player's poor performance. Literally has zero to do with skin color.
If the OP's HR department is worth a damn, they won't pursue any action. So ridiculous for that guy to be offended.

Just man up and put an apology letter on his desk at lunch......along with some popeyes. Good as new.

If only black folk realized how little anyone cares about their skin color.
If only they realized Cam is not the first or only black QB.
