An Indiana police force placed a female captain on paid administrative leave after she told a fellow officer that he benefited from “white male privilege.” A vote on Capt. Carri Weber’s future with the Plainfield Police Department is scheduled for a commissioner’s meeting on Thursday, according to WRTV.


“I was racially and sexistly slurred by Captain Carri Weber while I was asking a question of the instructor in training,” the officer wrote in the complaint. “I am now firmly aware of the discriminatory belief she just verbally communicated. … There is no place in the Plainfield Police administration or supervision for someone who holds and espouses her discriminatory views.”


The rest of the article and the video of the incident is in the link.

Is there some context as to why she said that? Nothing about that statement is discriminatory on its own.

Sure it is. She's saying he got where he is not through any merits but by his race and gender. She's dismissing his individual experience based on race and gender.

An unnamed male officer questioned the statistic.

“My wife has never been part of police violence,” he said. “Most of the people that I know have never been, accused the police of violence. So I guess I don’t get where that statistic comes from.”

This dude literally sounds like a CEmen

I specifically recall you having opinions on Philando Castie that were at odds with what you just said.

You really gonna argue that footage didn't show an unjust shooting?

White privilege does not exist on the individual level. Directing white privilege comments at any particular person shows you have no clue what the term means and is racist. It's actually the kind of thing I'd expect from people with double-digit IQs.

People with triple-digit IQs however likely recognize that a blanket statement about an entire race certainly counts as racism, such as telling someone that they have a privileged life because of their skin color.

    Criticizing feminism (hyperbolic or not) isn't the same as making sexist remarks about women.

    It's not equivalent to the sexist remark uttered by the police captain that targets men.

    She was belittling the coworker because he literally said "no one I personally know has these problems, so I don't see where the statistic comes from."

    She definitely shouldn't have chalked it up to his whiteness though. She should have just said "what kind of idiot thinks that because something isn't happening to him that it must not be happening anywhere?'

    I agree. But instead of doing that, she made an insult based on his race. The guy has these beliefs because he's ignorant, not because he's white. It's 100% fair that she is penalized for using one in place of the other.

    I mean, she's right. There are all kinds of privileges to varying degrees. I have some social benefits just from being male and tall. My peers (including blacks) have privilege over me for being American citizens. Whites have a racial privilege, but wealthy blacks have an economic privilege over poor whites. All of these overlap.

    This can be wielded entirely inappropriately. It does a white family in poverty little good to needlessly tell them at least they have white privilege. 

    However, this cop disputing police violence statistics because people he know have never had problems? Uh yeah, a significant reason for that CAN come down to social and ethnic identity if you come across bad cops. It's so condescending to say just because you've never come across something it means it's not really a problem. So the retort in this instance was right.

    I know what it means just fine, and it isn't an insult. Ignorant people tend to perceive it as an attack. In this case it was making the obvious explanation as to why his personal experiences do not back up the statistic in question.
