    If you were a child and someone said you didn't fit in with your family what would you call it?
    Seriously poor deflection wizard.

    Good points. First off......it was a private conversation I believe in a café. So....picture yourself having a couple of beers with the guys after work on Friday and someone cracks a "not-so-nice" crude joke about women? Or maybe even racial? Then you or your friend should lose their job.....because some busy-body turned you in to the "speech police?" It's starting to sound a lot like "1984."

    BTW, black rap stars put it in their so-called music and don't suffer ANY consequences whatsoever. The late Sen Robert KKK Byrd in 1998 said the "n" word on national tv twice....and suffered no consequences whatsoever. Harry Reid and Joe Biden BOTH used the word "negro" in reference to Obama back in 2008. What happened to them???? Oh yeah......Obama named one to be his VP and the other is Senate Majority Leader. So.....not a thing happened to either of them as far as their jobs go. And don't give me that crapola about how you think blacks and white Democrats can say. There is no such thing as a word being allowed for some....and not for others. I personally don't use that word....and I raised my son not to use that word. But this political correctness that is turning people in......taking their businesses away from them, getting them fired, and/or threatening them has gotten out-of-hand. And I blame the prez, his wife, and the AG for taking race relations back decades. Shame on them all.

    he can say whatever he wants now, he no longer represents the people... you just seem upset that people are upset with his comments.... no one stopped him from saying them, your just not happy how the people he represented took those comments...

    Sheriffs don't "represent" the people; they police them. Look at his record of how he treats the blacks in his area. That would be a far better way to prove he's a racist (or not) that his using the "n" word. Besides....since when does someone's views get them to lose their jobs? Or a use of a word? Apparently under THIS president.

    would you trust a man like this to police anyone.... and yes, I would reopen every case he has had with a black person in the past...

    He wasn't a policeman. He had no police powers. He had no cases.

    I wonder who the real racists are in this case? If the guy was black and called Obama the "N Word" we would have never heard of this. Different rules based on the color of your skin screams racism to me.

    Yeah, that's the whole point. No person should disparge another regardless of their race. Except if you're a Democrat. Then racism is perfectly acceptable!

    I do not know if he ever was or not ever in the police force, I assumed he was from the post I replied to

    Liberals and Democrats don't care about minorities other than their usefulness in furthering the socialist/progressive agenda. Their mantra is continue your monolithic voting for us and we will continue upping the entitlements while keeping rich white racist conservative Republicans at bay. National race relations are considered acceptable collateral damage.

    The guy was a public official. The public didn't like his speech. He was forced to resign by that public, not by an amorphous mob of PC liberals but by the public he represents in his community. I thought true patriots wanted public officials to be accountable to the public they serve. The guy is entirely free to hate black people in general, and his President in particular, as a private citizen. No rights violated or freedom crushed. You fellas keep picking some real right wing heroes - Cliven the Deadbeat Rancher, Zimmerman, Joe the Plumber, and now this senile throwback.

    You seriously are equating this to a man calling the African American President of the United States 'Ni***r'?

    Every time one of the true patriots gets caught with his or her Tourette's filter malfunctioning they start screaming and throwing chaff in a ludicrous attempt to create some sort of false equivalency. The great majority knows, despite the nutty protestations of stormfronters, that there is no equivalency.

    Sadly Id like to say that I am shocked by the okay-ness of this on this board but Im not. Had this "gentlman gone and spit in Obamas face and said this...this board would have ERUPTED in cheers, high fives, yeehaws, etc....
    Such is the nature of said beast. Surely no one else is surprised? I am s tad confused about something though: what on God's green earth makes him a decent man?

    As for rappers and such using this vile, disgusting word: THEY ARENT HOLDING PUBLIC ELECTED OFFICES.

    As for it being a private conversation: private only counts in your own home NOT A PUBLIC RESTAURANT.

    I suggested to fans of New Hampshire Cliven that they go to a pub filled with black people and have a private conversation at the bar using his language and let us know how their exercise in free speech goes.

    No returns in yet.

    True.

    But you can call whites any racial insult that you want.

    Thats the integrated-but-unequal double standard we have today.

    I don't really understand this. I have seen multiple threads on this subjectwith different characters. The HGTV thing, Phil Roberson, Mozilla now this one.

    Look their rights aren't being revoked or even tampered with. They still can say whatever the hell they want. Them losing their job isn't rights being revoked. Nobody has the right to a job. That's extreme lefty socialism. If I ran a company and I wanted to fire you because I didn't like your hair cut, I can, it's my company. I Ssm nit obligated toemploy you.

    OK , that argument is called "tu quoque," meaning "you too" and it's just about as childish as it sounds. The Romneys grandchild thing WAS reprehensible racism and you're right to call the ones who made it on it. BUT, that doesn't in any way justify this cop and you're just making all conservatives look bad by defending him. The whole title of this thread is an open slap and personal insult to every black member of this board. A guy who calls any black a N***** (NOT a Negro, which is an acceptable term, but only in a totally scientific context) is NOT a "good man" . He's a ******, racist POS and I hope they go back and fire him instead of letting him resign. He doesn't deserve a fat pension paid for partially by people he obviously hated and certainly hadn't served in any equal way

    Appreciate someone finally putting an answer to a question I've had. Did he say negro or the other n word?

    Might seem a dumb question but nowadays you never know what might get some peoples knickers in a knot.
    In the case of the other n word, yep gotta agree with the town folks. So long buddy. We cannot have officials in LE openly denigrating minorities in such a fashion.

    Sorry, but a public official who is supposed to protect and defend ALL the people, has no business saying things like this.

    This isn't a denial of free speech at all.

    If this man is a bigot, and he seems to be, he has no business in a position of public authority.

    He can have whatever opinion he wants, and saw whatever he wants. But no one owes him a platform from which to practice hate.

    Distractions are now what they are all about.

    They approve of what this guy said, but they have to manufacture rationalizations and distrctions to hide it.

    Yes. Racism is racism. There isn't a such thing as racism "lite". OR do you condone a certain level of racism if its against white people with black babies. That's also an interesting existential observation of the left.

    It was a stupid comment irrespective of whether is was 'negro' or the other N word. When you talk about someone by citing their color, you have a problem.

    Lol...What partisan nonsense. Do you mean libs like your boy Romney?

    Anyway, good riddance. That little racist creep has no business being dog catcher, let alone a police commissioner.
    But if you people bleed so much for him, why not draft him to run as your next great white hope for potus?
    He couldn't possibly be any worse than the parade of idiots, bigots and fools that contested the repub potus nomination in 2012.
    At the very least, you have your next right-wing folk hero waiting in the wings once you get bored with Bundy.

    Good riddance to him. A beautiful town that doesn't need someone like this dragging them through the mud.

    You mean like when Bush jr. tarred McCain in 2000 by claiming that he had fathered a daughter with a black woman?
    You people condoned his racist smears so much that you gave him the nomination and then voted for him twice.
    So, go'wan, humor us some more with your existential crapola.
