San Francisco board president accused of hurling racial slur at cadet

Democratic San Francisco Board of Supervisors President Shamann Walton, who is Black, is accused of using a racial slur against a Black cadet while passing through a security checkpoint at City Hall last month.

The San Francisco Chronicle first reported about the allegations on Friday. According to documents obtained by the newspaper, Walton grew frustrated that the cadet made him remove his belt to pass through the metal detector rather than using a metal detector wand to speed up the process on June 24.

San Francisco Undersheriff Joseph Engler noted what happened in a memo upon advice from the city’s Human Resources Director Carol Isen to document a possible hostile work environment incident. Walton “became very angry” with the cadet, who is African American, and said, “it is ‘N-words like you that looks like me that is always the problem’ referring to the security protocols as some ‘N-word s***’ several times as he yelled at” the cadet, according to the June 26 memo written by Engler and sent to Sheriff Paul Miyamoto and Isen.

Walton himself told Engler about the incident, and the board of supervisors’ president is reportedly not facing any formal punishment. The matter is considered closed.

According to a second memo reviewed by the newspaper, Walton admitted that he used the “N-word” several times against the cadet but explained to Engler, who is White, “how he believed that the way he had used it could be defended.”

Just this past weekend and while I was buying gas, I gave the cashier $40.  Upon walking out I went back n gave her another $20 because $40 seems low to me when I needed a fill up.  I went back in for the change n this china looking older lady be saying and I quote "you stupid chit, you payed more for gas n now wanting your change?"

Her coworker were red in the face n could not believe she said that.  I could of gotten her in trouble but nah, why should I?  She might have a mental illness so I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt.  People have lives so why causes someone to get fired for?  I have a thick skin so words don't hurt me much however, if you cross those I loved and they can't chew the crap you be spilling, I'll make sure you'll get check.   O0
