The letter claims that management offered them free tickets to a movie but ultimately refunded the group's tickets after they explained they no longer wanted to see films at the theater due to the experience.

Whoa. Missed that one. Seems a tad disrespectful to compare this to what actual slaves endured.

That's actually the most believable thing you've posted in this thread.

You certainly can especially if it's the middle of the day and there's no doorman or usher. I'm not sure if it's the same for this theater but the one I worked at during the day while school was in session we only had ushers during Tuesdays, Fridays, and the weekend

If youve never spent more than an hour in Slidell then you are not who I think you are.

Your issue is, me defending a black person does not equal me not liking someone of another race. I get into these same arguments with black people over topics. So no, I have no issue that my boss is white. I look up to him and strive to accomplish what he has.

I’ve been asked to show my ticket.
I’m white. I showed my ticket and there were no issues.

Do you think he would go against movie theater SOP and then threaten to sue and make a list of demands?

No clue what he would do. I guess you assume I would do these things? People like to sue in this state, so nothing would shock me.

Is it possible someone opened an exit door to let a few scurry in?

That's generally S.O.P.

No I didnt assume that. Just read that you strive to be him yet you want to cling to these fake victim stories that encompass the complete opposite of what that man is all about. atleast that is the way it seems.

Which is why we need the other side of the story. Most theater employees are high schoolers and college kids, they're not going to go out of their way to bug some random group unless there is reason like never showing a ticket or disrupting other customers. They much rather not deal with that shite and just play on their phones during down time

Didn’t AMC to to a Movie Tavern style assigned seating with larger, more comfortable seats? Any chance someone with the 504 Queens group was sitting in a seat that wasn’t theirs and the person with the ticket for that seat went to get an usher?
