Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : Im the manager and owner of fairly large  bar and grill and i have 12 employees. One of my employees (Dale) is pretty racist against Asians and Hispanics. Our staff is entirely black and white and he doesn't have an issue with those people (he's black) but for whatever reason really hates asians and hispanics. Other coworkers have complained about his comments such as "hey hurry up, this chink ordered a burger" or "I'm tired of these people speaking mexican in here" among other similarly racist comments. I've told him to stop countless times and he hasn't. He rants about how immigrants are ruining this country and asians and hispanics are stealing our jobs and look weird and so on. He usually keeps this rhetoric to the staff but a few times he's gotten into altercations with customers who've then complained to me. He almost got into a fight with a hispanic customer after saying wetbacks should be deported and sent back to mexico or something like that. I had to intervene to stop the fight from happening. I've usually settled these incidents  by giving them free drink and told dale to stfu or I'm firing him. At this point though i've told dale to stop or i would fire him but he hasn't. Yesterday he told an old vietnamese man that he should stop blocking the doorway or he'd pour some agent orange in his next cocktail instead of politely asking him to move. The obvious solution is to just fire him because eventually an disgruntled employee or customer will film him and make it go viral giving the restaurant bad publicity  or right some really bad reviews on yelp, trip advisor or whatever. Im fed up with dale but he's a single father who has 3 children to take care of and he's taking care of his sick mother who's financially dependent on him which is why i feel i can't fire him. He's obviously a very morally  bad person but if i fire him it'll screw over the other people who depend on him. My other employees are constantly demanding i fire him but i've insisted that i can't because i don't want is kids to be screwed over.
