Sounds like the boss and racist coworker could be in it together. If the boss won't do anything, other than write you up, you need to take it to a higher up, but not until you've recorded this racist idiot a few times first. That way you have proof that he talks like this and it isn't just his (and your bosses) word against you. Because if you go to a higher up saying what the guy said and tell them that you told the boss, the boss did nothing about it and wrote you up, then chances are that boss is going to deny everything and it'll be your word against hers. Record a few times, get the proof, and then bring it to the appropriate people.

To anyone out there thinking of doing this, make sure you check the laws governing recording where you live. Some places are "One party consent" areas, so you can record anything you like, but others are "two party consent" areas where someone must agree to being recorded.

Racism isn't something you can just ignore. People need to speak out against it.

Reporting crimes is also important, but still snitches get stitches.

Some things are worth the risk to actually try and make a difference.

since when are 9/11 jokes racist?

I'm assuming it was jokes about Muslims.

Islam isn't a race.

and neither are muslims, they come in all colors

Why do you assume it was a joke about Muslims? Most 9/11 jokes are about the towers collapsing of the people dying. And Muslim isn't a race, so therefore the racism card becomes invalid

The only people who complain about snitching is the idiots doing something wrong. I hope you get arrested for the things you do.

No, it doesn't make the race card invalid, its called institutional racism.

It's not about snitching it's about being respectful. I had a friend who died in the towers 9/11 that's not funny

The majority of islamaphobes lump Muslims into an over generalized group of "brown people from the other side of the world that I hate". So yes, sometimes islamaphobia and racism are interchangeable. Especially when the 2 most common offensive terms used for Muslims are "sand monkey" and "sand nig**r".

*rolls eyes* Just make your joke. What's the worst that can happen? Downvotes, being moderated or a day ban or something.

11, a lot of jimmies would be very, very russled

I don't understand why people make 9/11 jokes anyway, they're just plane wrong. I'll see myself out the door now as this gets downvoted and possibly moderated.

Having been banned before I say it can be longer than a day. That was the worst week of my FML community life :(

# 20 i see what u did there "911 jokes are just "plane" wrong"

I completely agree. 9/11 jokes are just plane wrong

I see what you did there #22. Totally hit two..... Birds with one stone. I was tempted though

Vic and Shady, twin towers of humor...

Trust me, on the dangerous side of the Internet, you will run into a few holocaust jokes here and there.

I'm sick and tired of holocaust jokes Anne Frankly, I won't put up with them. (Waits for downvotes)

#24 How much did the holla cost?

I certainly cannot say that I did Nazi this coming.

Making jokes about the deaths of 3,000 people is quite offensive. It could have been overheard by someone who lost a loved one on that tragic day.
