Moral of the story: when it comes to resolving racial animus, beer summits work better than wine summits.

Behind that tough exterior, who knew that blacks were really crying on the inside?

We simply must do something about this.

"Brown testified that Magnus asked whether Juneteenth was a 'holiday for killing people' during a 2006 deployment strategy meeting with several African American police leaders."

LOL.

I am glad whites starting learn the game.

It is much easier get money from tribunals than working, in a society where work ethic is unknown, talent is considered racism, merit will never be acknowledged, your happiness makes your neighbour your enemy.

Better late than never.

Once when walking along a seldom walked along portion of Ohio Avenue in Richmond I passed a parked car where a black woman whom I took to be a prostitute was giving a white guy a blow job. I will never forget the sheepish look on that guy's face.

For that and other reasons I'm not surprised to hear there are additional problems in Richmond. Even with the police. A city that bad cannot have too much right about it.

Firefighter sounds like a truly miserable job. Holed up in a firehouse all day long, with nothing to do but nurse grudges and play office politics. At least in most offices the politics is an extracurricular activity, but since firefighters don't do anything all day long, office politics is the main show.

Plaintiffs' attorney Stephen MacJaffe

Gotta love those Scots-Irishmen in the plaintiffs' bar - never ones to file any frivolous lawsuits - far too principled for that sort of thing.

My guess is that in a racially mixed group at work, there is a lot of give and take, joking and generally both sides participate, but it seems when there is some need to cash-in or there is some falling out between parties that is unrelated to race, the joking of the past gets dredged up.

The Richmond police department holds "retreats" at Napa resorts? I guess any money they spend on that is money they can't spend on pepper-spray, robots, humvees, or drone aircraft.

Does anyone still think that modern urban american police departments exist to "protect and serve" the citizenry anymore?

My mother has taken up suing people now that she's retired.

She's already won a couple of nice settlements.

Looks like the wave of the future. I'm certainly tired of working.

Having worked with lots of blacks in the past I would take anything they say with a bag of salt, especially in a case like this where they're expecting to cash in. Time and again I saw them fabricate entire narratives and sound very convincing in so doing. They were usually poor workers.
Discrimination lawsuit plaintiffs always try to make their case through the media as a way of exerting pressure before the case even comes to trial, if it ever does. It is always made to sound good but the reality is usually quite different.

Blacks bitch and whine all the time, but they are by far the most insensitive, rude, hateful, and vulgar people on Earth. They are like Al Sharpton, a bundle of hostility toward others who get so touchy when people say stuff about him.

Blacks will act loud and rude, but if you say they act loud and rude, you're 'racist'. It's the same old song.

He also said Brown had told him that "an African American captain shouldn't have to work for a white female."
Well that's just common sense. :o)

There's a story to be written about the differences between police departments run by political appointees and those run by elected officials (e.g. LAPD vs LA County Sheriffs Dept).
I imagine there's a lot more political correctness when you have to answer to a bunch of idiot city councilman.

Sadly, too many white men will engage in childish, passive-aggressive wisecracks like this, but will never engage in constructive opposition to their cultural dispossession and marginalization because they consider themselves "too smart" to fight a losing battle against "the way things are."

"'Magnus also described a hellish staff retreat in Napa nine months into his job, in which he tried to get black and white commanders to discuss racial tensions and cliques in the department.'

Napa Valley sure can be hellish. I heard there's this one resort in Napa that once served a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon at 72 degrees, because it thought that "room temperature" means room temperature in a modern American building not room temperature in a drafty old French chateau."


It was the people, not the place, that made the staff retreat hellish.

If you can be so flippantly dismissive of the friction involved in a work force of blacks and whites, then lucky you. His description recalls to me my efforts to get blacks and whites to work together when I managed campus properties. It was indeed hellish.

Blacks really have the lawsuit angle down pat. Once in a basketball game I asked the woman guarding me to let go of my shirt. She called me an MF'er, the rest surrounded me, and they told me I was lucky they didn't sue me.

One thing for sure, one way to create more jobs is to create more opportunities to litigation. I once worked for a 'non-profit' company that offered advice/programs to helping 'traumatized' employees in other companies. (I did low-level work and didn't stay long, so don't blame me.) It offered advice on dealing with workers with problems with depression, drug problems, etc, etc, etc, anything you can think of under the sun.

Personally, I thought many of the problems were nonsensical and more personal than work-related. I mean if someone's a drunken bum or junkie, it's his or her fault; just fire the fool, I say!
Also, many of the advice and programs seemed so lame, ineffective, or just plain bogus. It was all written and carried out in 'social science-ese', but it was mostly BS. Sort of like pretending to do stuff without really doing stuff.

So, I asked one of the people who worked there... 'why do companies hire our company for advice, programs, and stuff when so much of what we offer is so lame?'
And psst, psst, the guy told me it's because companies wanna have an excuse if they ever get sued by their employees. If they have problems with employees and must fire them and if the fired employees sue for wrongful firing, the companies that used our services can say, 'look, the worker had such-and-such problem and we did everything to take care of him/her; we hired so-and-so company for advice and programs and etc to help the employee, but he/she still had problems, and so we had to let him/her go...'

So, it was basically a shakedown racket. Not that our company willfully shook down other companies. Rather, the mere fact that other companies feared lawsuits made them hire our services to use as cover.

How right you are. Even when the blacks got to work, they seldom got down to doing any work. And any work they did do generally had to be redone by whites.

This goes for any job I've held where blacks and whites shared a work environment. It's galling to do your work and someone else's and to know that other person is being paid for their work when you're the one who did it, as well as doing your own.

I'm starting to wonder if some of these cop and fire-whiner "discrimination" and "hostile work place" cases are actually all elaborate schemes concocted by both sides to get big payouts that are then shared among the conspirators. Some of the actions of some of these high-level 20+ year officers is just incredulous. If these public safety leaders are the best of the best then police and fire departments are a joke. They act like first graders and still keep their well-paid jobs.

Oh, as an aside. One Deputy Fire Chief in my mid-size FL city (pop. 75K) receives an annual pension of $110K. His salary upon retirement was $95K. Oh, it gets better - he's not really retired. The City has a program where the worker can "retire" and have his pension be deposited into a special account (at 6.5% guaranteed interest) but keep working and receiving a regular salary. Some call it double-dipping. After 5 years of this arrangement, the employee must really stop working and can roll over the money from the special account to an IRA. The aforementioned Deputy Fire Chief will be able to roll over about $600K. Oh, and he'll be just 55 y/o at that time.

I agree, you are one. We whites may have our faults, but at least we aren't as unfortunate and pitiable as you. But surely as a conscientious liberal you will do your best to assist others, even under such trying personal circumstances. There really is a never-ending supply of unfortunate, suffering victims who need aid; their state is positively wretched...

Cops are civil servants granted with a lot of authority, and with a relatively higher degree of responsibility. That is, a cop is expected to mediate a wide range of civil disobedience, and yet they're paid the wage of a city or state official that maintains a clean water supply. And they run a reasonable chance of being shot at, just because, hey it's the po-po.

If you didn't see that causing trouble, you need to hand in your Psychology 401 degree.

To those of whom the most is expected, you either need to pay them the most, or you need to expect less of them. Either cops need to be the best lawyers in the world, or we need to stop expecting them to be the best lawyers in the world.

If only non-government workers could or would sue like this for racial discrimination. How many times was I told in the early 1990s by potential employeers "You are the wrong color"? I just let it go because Amurrica is the land of Individualism, Capitalism, and Opportunity, not to mention Apple Pie and Motherhood. What a crock. We have been shafted, hard.

They mostly cry on the outside, as blacks are more emotional (so much so that calling them emotional is forbidden according to PC rules that no stereotype is ever true).
