Today's daily racist e-mail story: OH police forward Air Force One "N166ER" image from work
http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2009/8/14/766851/-OH-police-forward-Air-Force-One-N166ER-image-from-work

Two Ohio Police dispatchers have been caught forwarding from their places of work racist emails depicting Air Force One with an aircraft registration number that spelled out the word nigger as N166ER. This was reported on Kos back in March and it appears the emailed smears have only grown and are spreading among those who are supposed to serve and protect with fairness and impartiality.

I wonder if these cops realize how many Ohio police officer jobs Obama saved with his stimulus.

It is 2009 for Christ's sake!

On Edit--I added a * to "fuckers". I just think I'm swearing too much lately.

70. Plus we have had about 233 years as a nation where this kind of attitude has been acceptable
Only in the last 50 years or so has there really been any kind of legal consequence for discrimination and racist policies. So out of the last 233 years, and about 50 years of people basically being forced to act like decent human beings, are people really surprised that the attitudes are still strong today?

Edited on Fri Aug-14-09 04:59 PM by noiretextatique
seems to be emanting from a place of feeling more deserving than others (non-white, poor, etc). it's ok for some people to have government-paid healthcare, but heaven forbid if some of undeserving ones get the same benefit as the deserving ones. i know racism plays a role in much of ugliness we've seen of late, but the beliefs about entitlement and who "owns" this country seem to underlie and fuel the anger.

I think the "male fun" was referring more to this troll than to the dispatchers.

And that just because they forward racist things, it might only be for the laughs, not because they are perpetuating stereotypes or encouraging the idea that racism is just harmless hijinks.

79. I responded to "sending emails from work is a no no." It does
not address content of emails. One would imagine the "surfing the web" from the same computer that sending no no emails from is really close to the same offense.

But, justify it any way that makes it work for you.

89. If you are surfing on company computers, or emailing on company
computers (and/or servers), especially on company time, then you are stealing from the company.

This is using the editorial 'you' rather than personal, because I am sure no one here would do that. Just as no one here would dream of going into WalMart, or buying a non UAW car, etc.

Now, is that clear enough for YOU?

42. BUT REMEMBER THIS!
It's WE LIBERALS who are the real racists because we play the race card!

And by "play the race card" I mean, point out when someone does or says something that disparages someone based on their race.

Reality has a well known Liberal Bias. We show our own prejudices by bringing up what happening in reality.

I'm pretty sure a dedicated wingnut could make it through 12 or 16 weeks of cop training to be 100% lawfully armed in close proximity of the president.

86. Uh, pointing out that a policeman could be a potential danger is hijacking the thread?
I sit corrected. Of what, I have no idea.

47. Thanks for posting this. In talking with a couple of librarians yesterday, they couldn't figure out
why there is so much outrage against health care reform.

I explained that it ISN'T about health care... it's about making Obama FAIL, and underlying that is racism.

This makes the point, and I'm sending it on to this librarian..... thanks for making this available.

Now I'm going to go be sick.

:cry:

54. I'm sure those cops never harassed or arrested anyone for DAWB.
DAWB = Doing Anything While Black

The senders were police dispatchers, not cops with powers of arrest. nt

64. I'd like to her some of the logged calls to see how they talk to black people who call 911.

65. Call or email.... FIRE HER!

You can let the North Canton Police Department (Anita Malachowski's employer) know what you think of this by sending them a note. If you’d rather call you can do that at (330) 499-5911. I you love to fax (and who doesn’t!), you can fax away to (330) 966-3731.

You can let the Uniontown Police Department (Holli Webb's employer) know what you think with the following information:

Uniontown Police Department
Phone: 330-699-6444
Fax: 330-699-9501
E-mail: uniontownpd@neo.rr.com

67. And to think I heard just this morning...
a story on NPR about stimulus money being used in Ohio to hire 130 forestry workers, who will train at Hocking University (or College?), then will spend the next six months clearing invasive flora and planting trees, among other duties. When they're done, they'll also have $2,300 toward college.

The racism is a dam breaking. It never went away, and was never, EVER, confined to the South. I'll say it again: I've seen more Confederate flags on pickups here than I ever did in 47 years in Alabama.

92. You are right
It never went away. EVERYBODY knew it was wrong, but some still can't rise above their primal instincts of fearing something different, and have never really consciously wanted to.

And many of them are in church every Sunday.

69. those f-ers need to be at least suspended without pay
or fired, if you ask me, for such blatant racism. They are serving the public, hence me, and I want them punished.

People's stupidity never ceases to amaze me!

We won, they lost, they should learn to live with it!

76. Good contact information! Thanks for the link, bluestateguy!
"Anthony at Ohio Daily Blog broke the Ohio story, which began when someone sent him an email they had received from North Canton Police Dispatcher Anita Malachowski. Ohio blogs began to cover it in force:

http://www.plunderbund.com/...

http://bloggerinterrupted.com/...

http://www.progressohio.org/...

Many in the Ohio and national mainstream media were also notified via email by bloggers.

Then the story widened. It was discovered that Uniontown Police Dispatcher Holli Webb was the one who sent the email to Anita.

I've recently begun to think that the healthcare town hall mobs are not really about healthcare at all. Most are there to discuss the issues, but there is a strong undercurrent of racial hatred running through the groups as well. It's very disheartening to have to fight the same smear battles we had to fight in the election, but we must. The way we beat it back then was to out those forwarding these hateful racist smears on. Once more unto the breach.

81. Wait, we don't have all the facts yet, we haven't heard all the details
these emails might have been part of an ongoing investigation into fraudulent air force one plane registration numbers. I'll wait until I've heard personally from every policeman in america about each of their individual views on race, and on obama, on tasering for no good reason, on the proper treatment of angry black men on their own porches, before I make a hasty rush to judgment here.

93. They probably won't do crap and if they do another force will pick them up
The police are a rightwing racist organization that both attracts thugs and racists and indoctrinates those that are not while demanding any that fall through those cracks form the blue wall to protect their "brothers" and reluctantly and half-heartedly "sisters".

Yes, that includes minority cops. They are "made guys" who are indoctrinated into the same system and are typically even more pricks than the white ones.

People will run and hide followed by a ton of wiping and dangling to avoid the truth that we need to crash the whole system out and start fresh again. Cops are not a part of society in their own minds, they see themselves as their own brand of elite and are loyal first to themselves before either the law or their fellow citizens.

Wake up America. We are gaming ourselves on a great many things and this one is plain as the nose on your face. The only opposition to this isn't facts but anecdotal evidence that isn't based on behavior relating to the job but personal connections and pure hope.

All cops aren't toxic. Most aren't directly but between those counting minutes to 20 years (lack of professionalism and dedication), incompetence (EVERY field has them and probably no group is more insulated from discipline or protected from termination), enablers (blue wall contributors), and actual jackboot assholes we have a real and deeply systemic problem that isn't going to fix it's self.

Anyone who wants this group to have all the weapons is living on Fantasy Island and taking too much acid. Government is no more an all protecting god than the market. God in Heaven help those that believe both.
