No issue with it, people are too damn sensitive today.

Probably not the wisest thing to say to a black patient. Use some frickin' judgment. You're a doctor FFS.

Add the BLM crap to the equation and that is why I don't care.

I used to care about a lot of things, but my ability to give a shite has been sorely abused. I no longer give 2 shits unless something has a direct effect on me or people I love.

I don't blame her for being offended and can't believe a doctor would call his patient that. People might think it's fine and innocent to say stuff like that to people of other races but need to understand when they hear that it can affect them.

Lexi Carter said her doctor, Dr. James Turner, came into the room and said, "Hi Aunt Jemima."
wtf was he thinking??

quote:

"I haven't slept. I haven't--I haven't really been able to deal with this," Carter said. "It's just the most horrible feeling really and I try to understand it and I don't understand it."
Oh, please, drama queen.

quote:

"I was just sitting there waiting to be seen and he walked in," Carter said. "He had a young girl, physician's assistant trainee, a student with him and he looked at me and he goes 'Hi Aunt Jemima.'"
I still can't believe a doctor walks in and that's the first thing he says

You can't see how a black woman would legitimately be offended by that?

don't see the problem here

and you probably would not see the problem if a doctor walked in and called a black man "Kunta Kinte" or said to a midget "Hey Mini-mouse". Or maybe the doctor calling a teenager with glasses "Four eyes".

Nevermind. I am on the OT. What was I expecting?

You know always blaming the victim is the decent and logical thing to do.

This thread shouldn't be more than "the doc sucks, he shouldn't do that to her."

That's it.

God forbid your truck ever gets stuck in a ditch, and that everyone that passes you by has this self centered and shitty perspective. Bet your arse will be pleading for some help at that point.

You're obviously upset that someone you don't know said something offensive to someone else you don't know. But can you answer why this is news?

News sounds like noose, therefore racism.

I can change my own tires and call a tow truck if needed. I'd much prefer that than having to deal with rando people. Thanks though.
