Well to be honest I trust the judgement of former SEAL Carl Higbie and think he took the high road in resigning. The buck stops here is something honorable people live by PO1 Tony Holland.
Many people get bent out of shape now about comments disparaging Muslims, homosexuals, illegal aliens and any other group it seems.
Some of these people supported former KKK senators and Congressmen because they changed to become liberal supporting elected officials.
In the posted article I didn't see any evidence of disparaging comments against "blacks" All that was mentioned was a comment about the Kenyan-American former President Barrack Obama and the birth certificate.
I don't begrudge a direct action special operations member who no doubt was involved in close combat with Muslims in various and sundry countries. Muslims execute homosexuals, lesbians, etc. in Muslim majority nations.
I don't agree with the the specifics of what Carl Higbie said below but when I was on active duty I protected the rights of people I vehemently disagreed with to say and write what they honestly believe din.
"Speaking years earlier on Sound of Freedom in June 2013, Higbie commented, “I just don’t like Muslim people. People always rip me a new one for that. ‘Carl, you’re racist, you can’t, you’re sexist.’ I’m like Jesus Christ. I just don’t like Muslim people because their ideology sucks.
“Go back to your Muslim shithole and go crap in your hands and bang little boys on Thursday nights,” Higbie said.
Concerning illegal immigrants, Higbie told Sound of Freedom in February 2013, that legal citizens should be free to shoot illegals crossing the southern U.S. border."

SPC Tom DeSmet
Fortunately we do protect and uphold the Constitution so people such as he being a loud mouth "Special" person can feel completely at ease espousing his opinions for all to hear. Doesn't mean you have to agree with or like. Truly a bitter pill to swallow when it comes to many people. The fact that he has such a terrible opinion about his fellow warriors. He sets himself as the example when his experiences can not be even close to his peers in their eyes. And what dictates his genetic shortcomings are no less damning in anothers eyes. Ignorant is what ignorant does!
