I'm sure we all have them. Years ago, me and a buddy had just clocked out from our overnight stocking job at Wal-Mart. I always took my smock off because I didn't want to be bothered by customers on my time off. He and I were looking at different hats in the men's section. A black lady comes up to him from out of nowhere and starts screaming at him, "You think I'm stealing something because I'm black, don't you, you white mothe*%#@%r"? He was completely blindsided and tells her to get the hell away from him.

I bet she weighed 285 and was wearing bedroom shoes.

Should have gotten her phone number for outback and James.

Not racism but I was at a friends house once and a few people were there some of who I didn't know...i got a call from police next day to be questioned for rape...asked cop if he was kidding, nope i had to go to station and give statement...when I got there he asked me a bunch of questions and I finally said look heres my girlfriend i showed him a pic... I said if u think I'd touch this nasty skank even if she wanted me to, call my girlfriend...he said well I figured cuz ive dealt with this girl before...talking about an a$$ chewing from my dad tho cuz they called him to get my number 😀

I used to do flight instruction stuff.
We had a student who failed and claimed it was because she was a female (instructor was male)
We put her with a female instructor who also failed her but then claimed it was due to racism.
We then had to get both a female instructor, and one married to a black woman, to fly with her at the same time. Who both failed her on basic tasks.
Her flight records then magically disappeared and she changed duty stations shortly after.

I've got too many to even get started on.

Had a patient in the ER tell me I was racist because I wouldn’t prescribe him pain pills, told him nope, I wouldn’t prescribe him pain pills cause he’d just filled 120 “hydro’s” 3 days prior.

Those damned crackers and their pill habits. I knew the guy was White before I finished reading your post.

yep

I will relate one that was pretty funny. One morning Harvey and I were riding down thru a swampy area and came across two white guys hunting...no orange on. Harvey knew one of them, but they both got tickets. 30 min later we came across two 20ish year old blacks...no orange. They got tickets.

My judge in Greene Co was a black man, nice guy and good judge. I had spent a lot of time teaching him about conservation laws. He used to get me to stand right beside the bench at sentencing time and would ask me how they acted and how much fine...right in front of the defendants. The two white guys came up first and Judge fined em $25 each, normal fine there for no orange. The two blacks came up and flung the race card out first thing, said the only reason we arrested them was because they were BLACK. The judge went off on them and gave em a good lecture on throwing the race card. He fined em $100 each!! They had already seen the two white guys get $25. Funny as all hell. Like I said, a good Judge.

Back around 1993 I and several co-workers were accused of being racists by a black guy who got fired for being a dumbass. I had to write a sworn affidavit on my interactions with and observations of said individual. He lost his case handily. That's my only time of being accused of racism I reckon but I'm an equal opportunity hater.

The oddest ones were when I had White people play the race card by claiming I was only arresting them because I had to fill a quota of White people. This was more often than not from females than males. That never worked.

I have fired many Black and White employees and never got called a racist but did get called prejudice one time by an employee because I told him to clean up his area before he got hurt falling over that mess
He fell and got hurt soon after.....then he cleaned up his messy area

When I was a SSgt in the AF, had a young black female Airman (Dutchess was her name) accuse me of being a racist (to my face) when I let everyone else go home for 6-hours after an exercise while she and I picked up the netting, sand bags, and did general cleanup. That was a HUGE mistake on her part - the next morning we met with the 1st Sergeant and Commander (black Colonel) who assisted her in transitioning back to civilian life. She had been a problem for quite a while with numerous Letters of Reprimand. What was the funniest part - while they were out-processing her she was removed from the facility and for 8-hours a day she cleaned the grounds on-base.

The really stupid thing is the DEA and government officials blaming the doctors for an opiod crisis.
Instead of dealing with the root of the problem (pharmaceutical company profits) they punish doctors, while simultaneously creating millions of new heroin addicts.

Between the military and retail sales too many times to count. Nothing has ever stuck, but it gets tiring. When accused of not liking black people I don't argue but just add that I don't like anyone in general so now what. Tends to stop it.

This all goes back to late 90’s when Joint Commission on Accreditation started pushing the pain scale as the 5th vital sign. The decided that we were not addressing pain enough and that the pain level was whatever the patient stated it was, even the guy eating the turkey sandwich complaining of 10/10 pain was 10/10 and had to be treated. So for 20 or so years they dinged hospitals for not treating pain which brings us to where we are now. I despise JCAHO, there’s increasing research showing that there is no improvement or worsening of care at hospitals despite jcaho’s very expensive and stringent guidelines. They make their own rules and oversee themselves. They created this opiate crisis.

I was going thru the police academy in the mid 90's. There was a black woman who worked for the Capitol Police. At the time, the state issued 40 cal. S&W Sigmas. She was probably the worst shot I've ever seen. We had 3-4 instructors for the whole group. Part way thru the first day, one instructor stayed with her for the rest of the week. They even gave her a 9mm sigma to shoot. Didn't help. She ended up failing firearm qualification. Sunday evening when we returned to the academy, the lead instructor informed us that she had filed a grievance with the state, saying they failed her cause she was black. Pissed everybody off! They did everything they possibly could to help her.

While I agree about the pharma's, you're wrong about the physicians. They're equally guilty of greed and are responsible for each and every addiction.

No. The patient who keeps coming back, making up stories about fake pain, is responsible for the addiction.
We have a huge population of narcissistic cry babies who don't believe anything is their fault. If you're a junkie, it's YOUR FAULT.

SOME physicians went in for the easy, quick dollar. Most however kept their dignity and honored their Oath. this would be the time to remind everybody to watch the documentary on Netflix about the Pharmacist in LA that lost his son because of an addiction and he then took on the system of prescribing Opioids. Sorry I can't recall the name but it was very good.
