Neither; you've already read why I am here, remember?

So if you overheard someone making racist remarks at work, what would your course of action be?

Either tell them to stop, or, if that fails, report them to HR or the boss?

Bingo, spot on.

And for you, what would be your reaction if the boss then told you that you were being dramatic, that it wasn't racism, and that if you reported it to him again you would be cited for abusing the rules and safeguards detailed within the code of conduct you signed when you joined the organization?

I've never had to report anything to HR, just saying. Probably because everyone around me are decent human beings who wouldn't go out of their way to offend.

Now we are actually having interesting dialogue.

"Wouldn't go out of their way to offend" - can you expand upon that?

As far as I am aware, none of the situations I am talking of went out of their way to offend - and as I have explicitly said multiple times now, anyone who does should be terminated on the spot, fired, without further question.

Even if they didn't go out of their way to offend, one should always think before speaking. Consider the location and the audience, then speak accordingly.

The medical field is highly advanced in most respects, including areas of ethics. Just as someone can be punished for neglect, even if it was unintentional, the same applies to one who speaks in a manner that may offend.

Less people sounds like your Klan became Woke, huh?

They just ain't the skinheads I use to know.

Glad you’re not one of them ‘WOKE’ klan member.

Still hate you just can’t scream ni##er in a public places anymore, huh?

Agreed, but I don't see how the conclusion is that the state and your boss must now be the police of your speech.

They wouldn’t be surprised someone is turning you in again

Wild that you are going to use that word so casually.

Since that question was directed at Rev, I'll go ahead and ask you - while he wasn't the one being reported in the question, why do you think Rev. gets reported at work a lot?
