A black kid gets followed around a store(s) by employees, so he < makes Vine videos of them. >I think what he did was hilarious...but I must admit that my "the internet is full of bullshit" alarm is going off. He looks WAY too clean cut and well dressed to be followed as a potential shoplifter. These women would have to be genuine racists or acting under orders from one to follow him around like that WHILE BEING FILMED! I mean, if they were Asian store owners, maybe...

Had this shit happen in high school. I can't speak for this particular incident, but I have been present when similar situations have gone down.

I thought they were latinos. If so that makes them much more likely to be racist against blacks than asians would be.

I guess I've forgotten what it is to be both young and black.

QUOTE If so that makes them much more likely to be racist against blacks than asians would be. Really? I thought nobody hated black people more than Asians. (Not kidding.) Every black made film taught me that Asian store owners thought all black people were shoplifters or robbers! Liars! And I know stuff like this happens. I'm just saying that if true, I love what this kid did, but damn I really hope it's faked because those honkies are stupid. Posted by TPRJones on Jul. 29 2014,12:44
QUOTE Every black made film taught me that Asian store owners thought all black people were shoplifters or robbers! Oh! That. That's not about race, asian store owners just think that everyone is trying to steal from them. |
