I wouldn't have fired him.
It's about damn time someone speaks out from the "white" side of that equation, but it would figure he was fired for it. It's really sad that blacks can still play the racism card at the slightest thing and have a white person severely reprimanded. I wonder, who is more of a victim these days? I grew up in a fairly mixed community, and while I've had my fair share of awful encounters with stereotypical black people, I've never really been afraid of them for their 'stereotype.' I've always been more afraid of unintentionally doing or saying something someone will twist and find offensive and label me racist. Is that racist?
