Army Recruiter's Homophobic-Racist Tirade
When Corey Andrew posted his profile and resume on Careerbuilder.com seeking work as a copywriter, it somehow got the attention of Army recruiter, Marcia Ramode. Andrew, who is black and openly gay, had no interest in Ramode's inquiry, yet replied and asked if he was able to serve in the Army as a gay man.
Once the recruiter learned Andrew was gay, she replied, " IF YOU ARE GAY WE DON'T TAKE YOU. YOU ARE CONSIDERED UNQUALIFIED." Andrew continued to prod her on the Army's recruitement policy, and a violent three day hate mail exchange ensued starting with Ramode telling Andrew, "being gay is disgusting and immoral."
According to the article in the the Jersey Journal:
The insults were not only flying one way, as Andrew criticized her vocabulary and poor spelling and, after finding out she was a Native American, wrote:
"So take that to your next rain dance."
