I don't know. His decision making skills are suspect.

Time will eventually pass and it will ease things up. If he's a junior or senior though getting that first job could be tough without connections, especially if it's in OKC where everything OU is big news.

Historically speaking has dick to do with this.
So a "sting" in the past trumps an attempt to "sting" currently?

You just fell right into what I am saying.
At some point society has to move on and quit having two separate levels of what is and what's not ok based soley upon what race your mom and dad are/were.


Not sure what you're saying.

You wipe away all the shite from Obama and Sharpton and Mike Brown and Trayvon, and we're still far less than a century removed from black people being treated like animals in this country.

While that does not account for the utter destruction of the black community (largely of its own making), I'm not going to pretend that a couple of generations of kids growing up knowing that their parents and grandparents were systematically degraded by the majority and the government isn't still part of our collective consciousness.

If I'm a black guy today and I know that 50 years ago people were repulsed at the thought of me swimming in the same pool as them, I'm going to think about things like the n word in a different way than you think about things like "cracker," and rightly so.

"googling" of candidates its very light and done by the interviewers
And he is done the second this video comes to light. Look, for any company worth a shite there will be multiple good candidates. So when the video of Jimbo Baggins comes out talking about lynching people, it is a no brainier to move on to the next person without even thinking. He could get a job at a place where nobody else that is nearly as qualified as him will be applying. But any accounting/legal/finance professional firm will not touch this guy with a ten foot pole.

Guy could go by a different name with employers FWIW.

Say his name is Matt Smith.

He could go by his middle name Roger.

Roger Smith google results are lame.

This too. And then imagine the shite you open yourself up to when another one of your black employees find out you hired Jim Crow to be their manager

3 years is just a long, long time.

Go by different name, get websites to delete articles with your name, etc.

Sure, it might affect him in the future job marketplace, but to say there is a 0% change he can get hired somewhere is just asinine.

Guy has options to avoid this.

Shut the frick up. It's those sorry sons of bitches attitude is why things will never get better between blacks and whites. They believe that they have the power to oppose people due to their skin color. If they believe there will never be a n**ger in sae, then they will never hire or want to work with a n**ger. They will never accept a n**ger as their equal. They are the ones due to their family money and or privilege will get these cushy jobs where they are responsible for hiring people or protecting peoples best interest and they will discriminate against n**gers. It is not because of some bull shite double standard you think exist, shite for brains. When was the last time black hung whites from trees?
--------------------------

You hit all of the high points heh?

White privilege
Hiring practices
Discrimination

Why surely some drunk and immature kids' actions set the standards for everyone else.

Any respectable company can find out, esp if he has a fb or linkedIN which is very common for people to have while looking for employment. Not paving roads or some job that doesn't take any real skills like you do.

Bc you didn't get caught probably. Im sure if people heard your racist rants it would damage your image and ability to seek credible employment.
