Would you feel differently if you observed the situation and discovered he was essentially providing a false dialogue that did not fit the reality of the situation?
he was essentially providing a false dialogue. but it was done in an attempt to ease the tension and fear.
if this is something that he does on the regular, then yeah i would feel differently. but i'm looking at this specific instance, if there was more, that probably would have come out?
before, you were arguing that people should take his whole career as a cop into account, before making any kind of judgment on this incident alone. i disagree.

Holy shit....I am 100% with Foo on this. Was it a smart thing to say? Not really. I lol'd anyway.
The lady's voice was quivering and she did sound scared. Seems to me the cop was trying to ease the tension and show that he is not the bad guy. It's unfortunate that this little clip is all we could see and hear. Do we know what was said afterward? No.

In the OP, you use "retarded" as a pejorative. Do you know how many people get deeply offended by that term, especially used in that way? Or the term "Cunt"?
In this context it seems fine.
This was his place of work. You go around saying shit like this at Crave? Of course you don't.

There are enough bad cops to weed out for actually doing bad things.

If it was a black cop joking and saying the same thing, would it be different for you, or the same? Just curious.

So context matters. Given the woman is obviously influenced by certain media, and he is responding to her reference with a joke to calm her that references her concern, I have no problem with it.
If being racial is is typical M.O., I would.
For instance:
"I am scared, I saw what ya'll did in Charleston!"
"Well, you are not a nazi so we will be gentle"
A joke, even about something serious that invokes Nazism, can be ok. Snowflakes need to focus on Melania's shoes or hat or something...

Maybe in the kitchen, but definitely not to customers.
